Sophie Cunningham has denied accusations that she engaged in an affair with Josh Bartelstein, the CEO of the Phoenix Suns and Phoenix Mercury.
A lawsuit filed by Gene Traylor, the director of security for the Suns, accuses the franchise of racial discrimination and claims it dismissed his safety concerns, which led to major issues. The lawsuit also claims Suns' vice president of security and risk management, Cornelius Craig, claimed Bartelstein was engaged in an affair with Cunningham. Bartelstein has been married to his wife, Sydney, since 2022.
