Antonio Cromartie’s mother is crying foul and it’s in the direction of her son. Cromartie’s little sister, LaQuinta Gardner says the entire family is upset with him after their mother received the eviction notice. Cromartie purchased the house for his mother back in 2007 and paid for everything all these years. Earlier this year he asked her to start paying the mortgage and she refused, which leads us to the eviction letter.

*UPDATE*
A rep for Antonio tells TMZ Sports … “His mother has been paying the mortgage on the house since 2011. That’s the deal they have in place.”
“It wasn’t until June that she refused to make any payments.”
The rep says Antonio’s children are his priority financially — and he adamantly believes his mother and her husband have the funds to support themselves.
*END OF UPDATE*
Before you go on thinking Cromartie is a horrible son, it didn’t seem like he was asking for anything unreasonable. The monthly mortgage is $700 per month and it was this past February when he asked his mother to start paying it herself after he had been paying it for more than eight years.
She refused, reportedly telling him he should do it because of the money he earned from the NFL and after all these months of her not making a payment, she was hit with an eviction notice from Antonio himself.
According to the notice she has to be out by August 15th unless she comes up with $2,310 in back payment. Her daughter has setup a GoFundMe page on her mothers behalf with no further word from Antonio on the matter.
