Former Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill took the stand in a civil case brought by his estranged wife, slamming her claims that he physically abused her as \u201cfalse allegations.\u201d<\/p>\n
But Hill admitted to shoving his wife Keeta Vaccaro, 30, against the wall during an argument inside their Sunny Isles condo. Vaccaro, who filed for divorce, is also suing Hill, 32, alleging at least eight domestic violence incidents.<\/p>\n

I created a hole in the wall trying to force her to get off me that night.\u201d<\/p>\n On the stand, Hill also admitted to threatening Vaccaro and said he was \u201cdeeply ashamed\u201d of his behavior. He denied hitting her, trying to punch her stomach while she was pregnant, throwing a blunt object at her eye and spitting in her face.<\/p>\n Vaccaro filed for divorce in April last year, after police were called to the couple\u2019s luxury Sunny Isles Beach condo over a domestic dispute. The couple got married without a prenuptial agreement in November 2023 and had a daughter the following November.<\/p>\n Vaccaro claimed Hill became \u201cincreasingly aggressive, violent, and demanding.\u201d In her amended divorce petition, she claimed Hill shoved her on the floor, ripped her hair out and tried punching her stomach while she was pregnant.<\/p>\n Vaccaro testified on Wednesday, detailing to a Miami-Dade jury several instances of abuse. She said the physical abuse began after the pair got married.<\/p>\n READ MORE: \u2018So violent.\u2019 In Miami divorce trial, Tyreek Hill\u2019s wife describes abuse<\/a><\/p>\n The worst happened while they were in Connecticut for an ESPN event, she said. Vaccaro said Hill grew irate because she didn\u2019t want to appear on TV because she was pregnant and had severe acne. She said he remained angry and largely stopped speaking to her, making her feel isolated.<\/p>\n \u201cI was obviously very vulnerable. I was pregnant, and he treated me like I was just a man,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was so violent. It hurt me so bad, and I was crying.\u201d<\/p>\n Hill, who is a free agent since getting released from the Dolphins<\/a> in February, could sign with a team as soon as this week.<\/p>\n The Miami-Dade civil trial is being livestreamed by Law&Crime.<\/p>\n
