Cameron Brink's mom Michelle Brink reacts to story of her fight with Sonya Curry
Cameron Brink's mom, Michelle Brink, and Steph Curry's mom, Sonya, have been friends since they were in college. The decades-long friendship hasn't been without rifts between them, especially in the beginning.
On Tuesday, when Kayla Nicole, who was the guest on the "Straight to Cam" podcast, asked Curry's sister Sydel if her mom could fight, she gave a hilarious anecdote of her mom fighting Cameron Brink's mom in college. Sydel said that despite her mom being much smaller in size compared to Michelle Brink, she won the fight.
"Yes, my mom fought her (Brink's) mom," Sydel said. "Our moms have been best friends for 40 years. Anyways, in college...something happened. I don't know what they were fighting about, and my mom was like, 'Shelly' (Michelle) and she got on the bed, jumped off the bed, grabbed Shelly around the neck from the behind."
"Shelly is like, 'Sonya get off of me' and like swinging her from side to side. I think my mom won though."
Later, Michelle Brink reposted the post from @straight2cam podcast's Instagram handle and hilariously claimed that it was false.
""False!!! 😂😂😂 It's a good story! @sacurry22," Michelle Brink wrote.
