The filing states that Jones paid the woman's mother, who then signed a confidentiality agreement when she was only one year old and has been dealing with that her entire life.
According to settlement documents, Jones had denied that the child was his. Yet, he paid allegedly paid the woman $375,000 in exchange for a signed non-disclosure agreement, or something thereof. The lawsuit also states that back in 1996, Jones had two trusts set up. One for the mother and one for the daughter.

The woman claims that Jones and her mother, Cynthia Davis Spencer, dated in 1995. Alexandra Davis claimed she “has lived her life fatherless and in secret and in fear that if she should tell anyone who her father was, she and her mother would lose financial support, or worse,” the lawsuit alleges.
Jones, along with his wife Gene, have three children; Stephen, Jerry Jr., and Charlotte Jones Anderson.
A Texas judge ordered the case sealed this week after Jones' lawyers made the request, as ESPN noted. However, the cat was out of the bag as the initial case was filed late last week by Davis' lawyers.
Jones' attorney's have declined to comment thus far. This is a developing story that will likely have more information revealed over time.
