Attorney Gloria Allred announced that she is holding a press conference Wednesday with another woman who says she was in a relationship with Herschel Walker and that he helped her have abortion.
The alert from Allred says that the woman will allege that the football legend, who is now running for Senate in Georgia, drove her to the clinic to terminate the pregnancy. The woman plans to remain anonymous and will provide evidence of her romance with Walker, the attorney said.
The development comes two weeks after The Daily Beast reported that Walkerwho claims to be ferociously anti-abortionpaid for a different lovers abortion. That revelation came on the heels of Daily Beast reports that Walker, a loud critic of absentee dads, fathered several secret children out of wedlock.

A request for comment from Walker's campaign was not immediately returned on Wednesday.

What legal claim could the woman make?

(2,008 posts)3. She is not coming forward according to the article:
The woman plans to remain anonymous and will provide evidence of her romance with Walker, the attorney said.
