Adrian Peterson is like plenty of other dads in one regard: He’s married to his college sweetheart and the two have an adorable 3-year-old son.
Everything else about Peterson’s family live is far from ordinary — or orderly.
The All-Pro Vikings running back was indicted September 12 on felony child abuse charges after admitting to a Texas grand jury that he repeatedly struck one of his 4-year-old sons with a tree branch. Three days later, reports emerged that Peterson was accused of abusing a different 4-year-old son, whose mother claimed Peterson struck the boy in the head last June.
All of this came a year after yet another of Peterson’s children — a 2-year-old boy he had only recently found out about — was beaten to death by the boy’s mother’s boyfriend.
So how many kids does Peterson have?
The former NFL MVP actually won’t say. ESPN’s Lisa Salters asked him the question point-blank last year following his son’s death, and he declined to answer.
But Erica Syion, the mother of one of of Peterson’s kids, told TMZ last year that the former Oklahoma standout actually has seven kids.
The identities of all seven aren’t clear, but the total includes a baby girl born last year who lives with her mother in Minnesota. It also includes both of the sons Peterson is accused of abusing, along with Adrian Jr. whose mother is Peterson’s wife, and Tyrese Robert Doohen, the boy who died last year.
