Jourdan Lewis’ Girlfriend

Jourdan Lewis is not currently in a relationship, or at least in any that we know of. He was most recently in a long-term relationship with Nicole Miller, his college girlfriend who twice accused him of assaulting her of which one led to domestic assault charges although he was found not guilty.

Reports have it that Lewis’ girlfriend dialed 911 after the player allegedly assaulted her following an argument that started over their finances. Miller told the court that she and her boyfriend shared an apartment but she was left to pay the bills as Lewis would spend his money on shoes and gadgets for himself and his family. She, however, said that Lewis eventually began contributing but still displayed carelessness with money, which put a strain on their relationship. On the day of the assault incident, Miller said she came back to their apartment just after midnight and met Lewis sleeping with the lights on. She woke him up and an argument ensued before Lewis threw a pillow at her.

She told the court that Lewis hit her three times with the pillow, pushed her against the wall and then to the ground before dragging her across the floor and grabbing her by the neck. Lewis himself told the court that he was trying to leave the apartment when his girlfriend fell to the floor and grabbed his legs in an attempt to stop him. He went on to say that he tried to free himself by grabbing her, possibly on the throat but with no intention of assaulting her.
