Who is Kyle Filipowski’s fiancée, Caitlin Hutchison? 4 things to know about the former Duke star’s controversial relationship

Kyle Filipowski’s romance with his fiancée, Caitlin Hutchison, came under scrutiny in late June 2024 after his family accused her of “grooming” and isolating him from his loved ones.

The wild rumors first surfaced ahead of the 2024 NBA Draft after ESPN draft analyst Jonathan Givony reported that NBA teams passed up on Filipowski in the first round due to concerns about the sticky situation.

Soon after, the former Duke star’s older brother, Daniel Filipowski, claimed on X that Hutchison “forced him to cut [them] off from his life almost two years ago.”

“My brother is a victim and was unfortunately a ‘perfect’ pawn and target for this girl’s lifelong scheme based on his human characteristics and growing potential as a high-level prospect which started taking place in 2019, exactly at the time when she began her pursuit of him,” Daniel wrote on X on June 29.

Despite Daniel’s claim that Hutchison began her “pursuit” of Kyle in 2019, the pair didn’t start officially dating until December 2021, per her Instagram.
