Katya Henry is claiming that Tyler Herro sent “inappropriate” and “aggressive” texts to her amid their custody battle.
Henry and the Milwaukee Bucks star share two children: a daughter named Zya, born in September 2021, and a son named Harlem, born in January 2023.
The mom of two is asking for their communication to be through a court-approved app, according to court documents obtained by TMZ, and that Herro has taken the “unreasonable and irresponsible position” to have messages about their children be conveyed through his mother.
Henry claims that their communication with Herro has been “incredibly disrespectful and far from courteous or formal” and that he's been allegedly “aggressive, inappropriate and emotionally charged manner” when she does speak to him about the children.
She believes that it stems from his recent career change, as he was traded from the Miami Heat to the Bucks back in June. Henry still resides in Miami and Herro is now living in Milwaukee.
Henry has had their children since the split in 2025 but since he's moved to Milwaukee he has allegedly “suddenly requesting increased contact and access that can only be accomplished by lengthy air travel involving several moving parts.”
She wants to establish some “safeguards” regarding their children moving forward and has filed for custody and support earlier this year.
Ahead of the 2026-2027 season, Herro seems to be adjusting to his new team and location.
