Dwight Howard Admits To Consensual Relationship With A Man

Model Stephen Harper sued Dwight Howard for sexual assault after the said a threesome went wrong.

According to Harper -- who has DM receipts -- he slid into Howard's DMs, and they exchanged flirty messages, and he joined Howard at his home

However, when Harper arrived, he found another person, a man dressed as a woman.

Harper didn't want to go through with a threesome under those circumstances.  

But he claims Howard used his size to force him to perform sex acts.

“Defendant stood up (towering over Mr. Harper), grabbed Mr. Harper by the thighs, forcibly removed Mr. Harper’s underwear, held Mr. Harper down, and performed nonconsensual oral sex on Mr. Harper,” the suit read. “Mr. Harper was in fear of imminent bodily harm when he was pinned down and forced to remain in place while Defendant continued to sexually assault him.”

Howard's attorney, Justin Bailey, denies his client forced Harper into doing anything while admitting Howard and Harper had "consensual" relations.

"What was a private consensual encounter was made public for profit and Mr. Howard looks forward to bringing the truth to light in a court of law," Bailey told ESPN. "The allegations against Mr. Howard are contested. Mr. Howard intends to present the truth. The truth is Mr. Howard blocked Mr. Harper on social media and then was confronted with two options — pay to protect his reputation or have a fabricated story made public. Despite being an easy target due to the subject matter and his status as a celebrity, Mr. Howard chose to trust in the justice system and will rely on all future court filings to speak for themselves."
