If you're a popular public figure, then people are going to want to know everything possible about your personal life, and that includes who you're romantically involved with.
For Deandre Ayton, he's been in the public eye since well before he entered the NBA in 2018 when it was rumored he would be the number one draft pick. He ultimately earned that distinction and helped take the Phoenix Suns to the 2020-2021 NBA Finals, so folks are wondering what his life is like off the court. Specifically, they want to know more about his on-again-off-again relationship with his girlfriend.
Who is Deandre Ayton's girlfriend?
Katt Leya and Deandre Ayton made a bold confirmation of their relationship in late August 2023. According to RadarOnline, a Snapchat video was posted where Deandre was shirtless, brushing her blonde hair. Katt, an adult film actress, also posted a photo of them on a dinner date.

Are Anissa Evans and Deandre Ayton still dating?
No, if Katt and Deandre are truly together then it's a safe assumption that Anissa Evans is out of the picture.
Anissa Evans and Deandre Ayton were an item when the 7'1" power forward entered the NBA, but early on in his career, it appears that the two took a break. Sometime in 2019, Ayton was spotted with a woman named Brooke, but it looks now as if he and Anissa have reconciled and have been together ever since.

Anissa Evans, like Deandre, is a proud Bahamian and she also hails from the baller's hometown of Nassau. According to Essentially Sports, she has three siblings and her parents' names are Andrae and Melissa. Anissa officially graduated from high school in 2017 and attended Queen's College.
The pair eventually had a child together. It seems like they may not have been able to make that work despite parenting.
