The legal dispute between boxing star Devin Haney and his ex-fiancée Leena Sayed has taken another turn, with Sayed asking the court to modify a custody provision that restricts how their daughter can be shared on social media.
According to TMZ Sports, Sayed has filed court documents seeking relief from terms included in the couple’s October 2025 custody agreement. The agreement prohibits either parent from posting photos or videos of their child on social media without written consent from both parties.
In her filing, Sayed argues that Haney is enforcing the agreement “in an unduly burdensome way.” She claims she is unable to post any image of their daughter unless Haney is directly involved in the post or gives explicit approval, something she says is often denied.
To support her request, Sayed submitted three exhibits to the court. One includes text messages showing her asking Haney for permission to share photos of herself and their daughter wearing matching pajamas. Haney allegedly replied, “nothing with the baby.”
Under the same agreement, however, Sayed was permitted to post a photo of the child watching Haney’s fight in Saudi Arabia in October 2025, a post that reportedly did not draw any objections.

In her declaration, Sayed emphasized the role social media plays in her life, stating, “Social media is an important part of how I share my life with friends, family, and with my social media followers.”
She added, “Khrome, and her representation on my social media account, is important to me, and I want the right to be able to post her without the requirement of Devin’s approval, which I believe to be unduly withheld without judicial intervention.”
A hearing on Sayed’s request is scheduled for later this month. As of now, neither Haney nor Sayed has publicly commented on the filing.

In 2025, Haney filed a lawsuit against Sayed seeking the return of $350,000 worth of luxury gifts, which he claims were given in anticipation of their now-cancelled wedding.
According to the lawsuit, Haney argues that California law requires the return of engagement-related gifts when a marriage does not occur and claims the situation caused him more than $500,000 in damages.
Sayed’s attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, denied Haney’s claims at the time, describing the lawsuit as retaliatory and stating it was “an extension of his campaign to punish her for having obtained a domestic violence restraining order against him. He needs to get real.”
