The Most Jerry Jones Move Ever: He Spent $1.6 Million to Fight a Paternity Lawsuit and is Now Suing His Daughter to Get the Money Back

There are certain qualities that are common among just about every man that's ever lived. No matter when they were born. No matter where they live. Whether you're a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn or a king, you share these traits.
Every man gets horny. And every man gets vindictive.
Even if you're a billionaire, you're not above acts of malicious pettiness on a galactic scale. Take, for example, Jerry Jones.
I'd almost put out of my mind that a couple of years ago it was revealed he knocked up a woman in Arkansas 25 years earlier:
Putting aside your depraved Mother/Daughter fantasies for just a second (I know it's not easy in this case; just do your best), the fact that Alexandra Davis' existence and alleged connection to Jerruh became public, apparently violated a confidentiality agreement. So Jones dug in his heels, brought his considerable resources to bear, and did everything he could to tie the Davises up in court. And now he's coming after his daughter and the attractive lady he rawdogged all those years ago:
Source - Jones will be seeking to recover the legal expenses he incurred in connection with the legal effort to establish paternity. That amount, according to the lawyers for Alexandra and Cynthia Davis, is $1.6 million.
The lawsuit, filed as a counterclaim to a defamation lawsuit against Jones and others by Alexandra Davis, alleges that the contract was breached when she filed suit to establish paternity.
“There was no threat to go public, quite the contrary,” attorneys Andrew Bergman and Jay Gray told PFT via email. “Rather than submit to a simple private genetic test, Mr. Jones chose to spend at least 1.6 million dollars that he is now suing his daughter for.” …
The effort started on January 4, 2022, when Bergman sent an email to Cowboys general counsel Jason Cohen expressing a desire for discretion in his communication with Jones. …
“As I am sure you are aware, Alexandra’s mother is Cynthia Davis from Arkansas,” Bergman wrote. “Alexandra is 25 years old. I do not feel it is necessary to go into any detail in explaining why Alexandra believes you are her biological father. However, Alexandra is more than willing to participate in genetic determination.
“Texas law provides a relatively simple, non-intrusive, inexpensive, quick procedure for establishing parentage if you are willing to cooperate. Hopefully you will avail yourself of this opportunity." …
The matter was obviously not resolved. More than two years later, Jones is on the brink of trying to get $1.6 million from the Davises for allegedly breaching the 1998 contract that provided financial support for her upbringing.
In the paternity case, Jones has been ordered to submit to a DNA test. The ruling is currently being appealed.
Far be it for any of us to claim some moral high ground and sit in judgment on anyone involved here. Families can be a messy business. Some, messy enough to make the houses in Hoarders look like the cleanroom where NASA built the James Webb telescope.
And maybe Jerry Jones side can argue he had a legally binding contract with the MILFtastic elder Davis. He would take care of their lovechild financially, and in return, she would keep her mouth shut. After all, the "ND" in NDA stands for "Non-Disclosure." And the "A" is for "Agreement." There's no ambiguity in there. Take away any of those letters, and the whole thing falls apart.

Still, coming after them for $1.6 million to reimburse you for the legal expenses you incurred dragging out the court case is positively a savage move. Possibly ingenious. But diabolical nevertheless. I'm going to go way out on a limb and say the Davis girls didn't make that kind of money appearing on Season 3 of Big, Rich Texas. Nor is there that kind of cash reserves still sitting in their trust fund after 25 years. But Jones is engaging in asymmetrical warfare. The kind where he has a several billion dollar advantage. So he ran up the billable hours tab on them because he could. He spent $1.6 million just to not disclose something that could've been confirmed with an Ancestry.com subscription.
Is that evil? You decide. That again is a value judgment I decline to make. But I do think it speaks to how an otherwise wealthy guy becomes a billionaire several times over. It's not always by playing fair or doing the moral, ethical thing. However this plays out between Jerry and Cyndy, I hope the sex was worth it for both of them. I just can't see how it's possible.
