Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Olivia Ponton, 22, have been romantically involved since early fall, according to a new report.
The football star and the model have been “dating” ever since and are “maintaining a casual relationship.” Officials reported on Monday.
It was revealed that Burrow's home was burglarized while he was participating in the game between the Bengals and Cowboys on Monday Night Football in Texas on December 9th, and Ponton called 911. The relationship between the two has become public.
It is unclear how the two met or exactly when their relationship began.
“They have been dating since early autumn and maintain a casual relationship,” a source told the outlet.
Ponton called police and told the 911 operator, “Someone broke into my house…It looks like a complete mess.”
Ponton, who has more than 7 million followers on TikTok alone, was listed in the police report as an employee of Burrows.
The NFL star didn't seem too happy with the details that were made public after the robbery, telling a press conference that he felt “violated on many fronts.”
“So obviously everyone has heard what happened,” Barrow told reporters after practice after the break-in. “I feel like my privacy has been invaded in so many ways, and I feel like there's so much more out there already than I want to share that I want to share, so That’s all I can say.”
Ponton has not mentioned the incident or his involvement with Barrow.
She participated in several recently published interviews with Cosmopolitan magazine and “Call Her Daddy” but did not comment on what happened.
