Bode Miller reportedly files two paternity suits; his wife and another girl are both currently pregnant
Nobody can ever accuse Bode Miller of lacking fertility.
According to a report from TMZ, the Olympic skier and gold medal winner has filed two paternity suits to establish custody with two separate women.
One of the suits involves a woman named Sara McKenna, who is currently pregnant and due in February. Miller is seeking joint legal and physical custody of the soon-to-be-born boy.
The other suit involves a woman named Chanel Johnson, who has a 4-year-old daughter. Miller claims to be the father and is hoping to establish joint and physical custody, as well as child support payments.
But here’s the big thing: Miller married his wife (pictured), volleyball player Morgan Beck (now Miller), in October, and she is currently pregnant and due in August. Yeah, there’s a lot going on here.
Apparently Miller was trying to distance himself from McKenna while he was with Morgan.
On her Twitter account, McKenna, who bills herself as a firefighter, ex-Marine, and model, claims that Miller wouldn’t acknowledge his child. The same day that Miller announced on his Twitter account that he was engaged to Morgan, McKenna posted a sonogram of her baby and included Miller in her tweet.
Here’s the tweet from Miller announcing his engagement on Sept. 17:
I have found the one!!! And convinced her to marry me. :-) twitter.com/MillerBode/sta…

And here’s McKenna on the same day sharing a sonogram of her and Bode’s son, who is due in February:
IT’S A BOY! Baby Samuel Bode Miller Jr. is due on Valentines day, what a perfect gift! I’m so excited :) @millerbode twitter.com/Sara_A_McKenna…

Bode wrote back to McKenna saying, “there should be a mental health qualification for being allowed to participate in mass media #crazy” before deleting the tweet. McKenna captured evidence of it.
McKenna fired back at Miller:
@millerbode Go take your paternity test already Bode. I’m over the way you have been treating us. You can’t hide DNA in court documents.

McKenna also says Miller held off on announcing his engagement for over a month in order to cover up that he had impregnated another woman.
Based on McKenna’s February 14 due date, she likely conceived in mid-May. McKenna says Miller was engaged as early as August, which means there were only three months between him sleeping with another woman, and proposing to his current wife.
What a mess. At least it looks like Miller is trying to address everything now the proper way.
Here’s what McKenna looked like in late September when she was five months pregnant:
