December has been anything but smooth sailing for Travis Hunter. The Colorado football star kicked off the month with the peak of college success, winning the Heisman Trophy. But what should have been a celebration of his achievements has quickly devolved into chaos, with his personal life taking center stage in the worst possible way.
Leaked Videos Spark Controversy
The latest in this saga happened on Monday as old videos of Hunter’s fiancée, Leanna Lenee, surfaced online. Clips showing Lenee in compromising situations with another man allegedly from three years ago will have everyone talking, not necessarily because the content is scandalous, but because of its timing, given that Hunter and Lenee have been together for five years.
In one of the videos, Lenee is shown in a house wearing a T-shirt and underwear trying to hide her face. Another video shows her sleeping with the man, while the third has her cooking for him afterwards. People on social media did not take much time to try to break down the videos and question the legitimacy of the relationship.
Social Media Weighs In
As the videos surfaced, the internet erupted with opinions. Fans flooded social platforms urging Hunter to rethink his engagement to Lenee. Many called the relationship a “red flag,” and some warned the star athlete to leave before it affects his burgeoning NFL career. But some came in their support raising a valid point of Why someone’s past should effect their future.
Amid The Controversy Hunter Deactivates His Instagram
Adding fuel to the fire was that Hunter deactivated his Instagram account soon after the footage went public. Although he has not spoken publicly about this issue, his decision to leave social media says enough about how much this mess is taking a toll on him.
Career and Chaos
The real issue for Hunter is his future — an NFL career that almost everyone believes is just over the horizon. Instead, he is struggling with a deeply personal scandal playing out on a very public stage. The timing couldn’t be worse because this sort of scrutiny might become a distraction ahead of what ought to be the most crucial year of his life.
What’s Next for Hunter?
For now, the Heisman winner seems to be keeping his head down, but all the eyes are on his next move. Will he clarify the controversy or let action speak louder than words? In any case, he is under increasing pressure.
