Carmelo Anthony's ex Mia Burks poses for a selfie as she enjoys Christmas night out with their daughter

Carmelo Anthony's ex-girlfriend, Mia Burks, loves sharing her best moments with her daughter, Genesis Harlow Anthony. The seven-year-old has been the focal point of Burks' life since 2017 and the mother-daughter duo spends holidays together.

On Monday, Burks decided to enjoy a Christmas night out with her daughter. She posted a selfie video of them both dressed up for their dinner night, with big smiles on their faces.

Burks wore a black jacket over a silver dress, while Genesis wore a simple black top. The video also featured a piece of cake served on a plate.

Genesis was born in August 2017, while Carmelo Anthony was still married to his ex-wife La La Anthony. The former couple had separated the same year. It was then reported that Melo and La La separated because he allegedly had a child outside the marriage.

The couple already had a son, Kiyan Anthony. They reunited a year later. However, the marriage did not last for long, as they filed for divorce in 2021.

It wasn't the first time that the former NBA star and his wife had trouble in their marriage. In a conversation with Alex Cooper in 2022 in her "Call Her Daddy" podcast, La La revealed that they started to have trouble in their relationship when Melo moved from Denver to New York.

Carmelo Anthony's ex Mia Burks elated as daughter smiles for picture

Daughter Genesis Harlow is Mia Burks' world. The mother of the seven-year-old likes to capture memories with her daughter as she continues to grow up.

In her Instagram story on Saturday, Burks revealed that she was happy to get her daughter's pictures with a big smile on her face. She wrote in her caption that initially, Genesis was in no mood to get any pictures clicked.

"The way she acted like she didn't want to take any pictures ... *just happy they came back with smiles."

Carmelo Anthony has refrained from appearing in public with his daughter, justifiably, for his own reasons. However, the former New York Knicks star has been there for his daughter in the background.

Earlier this year in August, when Genesis celebrated her 7th birthday, Carmelo Anthony was present with her. Last year when he released his retirement video, he was seen holding her picture while speaking about leaving behind a legacy.
