HUMILIATING: Christian Walker on Video SLAMMING Men Who Don’t Raise Their Kids — His Dad Had THREE Ignored Kids

This could actually be a pretty sad situation. It is entirely possible that Christian Walker had no idea that his father had three children that remained “hidden” in the sense that Walker never acknowledged having a total of four kids. Herschel Walker did acknowledge and brag about the fact that he helped raise his son Christian Walker – aged 22 – despite the fact that Walker was no longer with Christian’s mother. Walker seems to have had nothing to do with the other three, with the exception of paying child support and birthday-Christmas presents.

Meanwhile, Hershel Walker was openly critical of men, especially black men, not being involved in their kids’ lives. Herschel Walker was so involved in the cause that Christian made the video below. It is likely Christian was unaware of the fact that The Daily Beast found:

A day after The Daily Beast broke the news that Herschel Walker had a secret 10-year-old son he fathered out of wedlock, the football star-turned-politician confirmed late Wednesday night that he has yet another son with a different woman that the public doesn’t know about—as well as a daughter that he had in college.

The 10-year-old’s mother went to court for a paternity declaration and child support. A document posted online by the law firm that represented her in that 2013 case, said she and Walker began a relationship on Nov. 1, 2008. That was only three months before the birth of the son who is now 13.

One really hopes that Christian Walker didn’t know that he had so many half-siblings when he made the crazed video below. Given the video’s insanity (with a heap of Christian’s insanity) and given how much Christian seems to worship his father, it seems more likely than not that Christian had no idea, just like the rest of us:

Oh, and there’s another! This must be a very important subject in the Walker household, n’est-ce pas?

There are some cliches that we always try to avoid, such as the “that didn’t age well” tweet. But damn, this video probably needs a remake… Unless Christian is now furious at his father, which cannot be ruled out.
