Mavericks sharpshooter Klay Thompson’s girlfriend, Megan Thee Stallion, dropped $240,000 on a month-long therapy program. The reason? A fake scandal video that hit the internet and sent her into an emotional freefall.
The Houston rapper's former manager testified Wednesday that Megan spent the massive sum on a four-week intensive session after blogger Milagro Gramz shared the explicit AI-generated clip.

Per TMZ, her ex-manager Travis Farris testified that Megan came to him crushed after the fake video went viral, with countless people believing it was real. She apologized for him having to see it, then checked herself into intensive treatment to deal with the trauma.
However, the damage was already done by the time the truth came out, and the six-figure therapy session numbers tell the story of just how deep this cut is. She pulled up to Miami federal court Wednesday morning for the ongoing defamation trial and is fighting back hard against the online harassment campaign.

Her legal team confirmed she's been diagnosed with PTSD, and her treating psychologist, Dr. Lenore Walker, is expected to hit the witness stand later in the trial to break down the full scope of the damage.
Farris, who reportedly described their bond as pure big brother-little sister energy, shut down Gramz's string of wild claims about any romantic connection.
For the unversed, the DeepFake scandal traces back to the 2020 Tory Lanez shooting case, when the rapper shot Megan in the feet outside Kylie Jenner’s home in the Hollywood Hills. Court documents show she is seeking compensation for the emotional distress and damage to her reputation.
The trial has exposed the significant damage that online hate campaigns can cause. Anyone, from everyday people to YouTubers to industry icons, can be the target of these fake AI-generated clips.
Her quarter of a million dollars for therapy reveals the true cost of dealing with online harassment, which everyone can't afford. Megan is putting up the shots in court, refusing to let the cyberbullying slide without consequences.
Her relationship with Thompson has been public since summer 2025. Now she's balancing courtroom battles with supporting her man during his first season with the Mavericks.
