The wife of an NFL star has apologized to her husband’s former teammate after he was caught up in a media frenzy over her dating history. The woman, who is a prominent figure in her own right, recently revealed that she dated her husband’s college backup quarterback to make him jealous, sparking intense speculation about the identity of the player in question.
The NFL star played college football for a well-known team between 2006 and 2008, and his now-wife was a cheerleader for the same team during that time. While she did not name the backup player she dated, many speculated that it was a former quarterback-turned-coach who played for the team at the same time as her husband.
In a unique turn of events, the woman has now issued an apology to the former player and his family, insisting that he was not the person she had referenced and that he had no involvement in the dating drama. She took to social media to share a photo of the player and his family, expressing regret for any unwanted attention they may have received.
The woman shared a photo of the former player and his ‘beautiful family’, expressing regret for any inconvenience caused by the media frenzy.
The woman previously revealed on a podcast that she dated her husband’s college backup quarterback, but has now clarified that it was not the player in question.
The woman’s initial comments about her college dating life caused a stir, leading her to issue an apology to the player’s family.
The woman took to social media to address the situation, reflecting on her past choices.
In her social media post, she wrote, “To this beautiful family, I am sorry for the media storm that happened last week that made its way into your lives.” She went on to praise the former player and his wife, who was also a cheerleader, for being a couple that she and her husband “looked up to.”
She continued, “You had absolutely no involvement in what I spoke about, and in fact, it was your relationship in college that I admired and wanted for myself and my husband. You were the couple that everyone thought we were. You were the quarterback and cheerleader who met and never let go. My best wishes to you.”
In a subsequent post, she added, “If it didn’t affect others, I wouldn’t even address it because it was so amusing how things were twisted. It was 16 years ago, and if you asked my husband and me if we would change anything, the answer would be no. But we appreciate the laughs.”
During her appearance on a popular podcast, the woman had revealed, “It wasn’t a cute relationship at first. I had conflicting feelings about him. I dated the backup quarterback to make him jealous, and it worked.”
The couple, now happily married, experienced a rocky start to their relationship during their college years.
Joe Cox (L) and Joe Tereshinski (R) were backup quarterbacks at the same college while the NFL star was the starter, but the identity of the mystery player remains unknown.
She added, “He was also a bit of a bad boy, unlike my husband, who is a true southern gentleman. It upset him to see me with someone who was his complete opposite.”
Following her revelation, fans speculated about the identity of the backup quarterback, but it now appears that the player in question has been ruled out. During the podcast, the woman also shared how her new relationship drove a wedge between her and her future husband, leading to a confrontation.
She recalled, “They lived in the same dorm because athletes lived together. He would see my car there and waited for me one day. He got into my car and refused to get out. I thought to myself, ‘This is amazing; it’s working.’ But when I told him to get out, he replied, ‘He’s not right for you.’ I responded, ‘You can’t tell me that!'”
The couple are now happily married and share four young daughters.
The couple have been together for over a decade and share four children.
The NFL star went on to become the No. 1 overall pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, highly touted as a promising prospect. He was drafted by a well-known football team, where he spent 11 successful years before moving to another prominent team in 2011.
He then achieved the ultimate success in his first season with his new team, winning the Super Bowl and solidifying his place in the league. The couple first began dating during their college years and have been together ever since. They got married in a lavish ceremony and now share four young daughters.
Despite the rocky start to their relationship, the couple has endured and built a happy life together, reflecting on their past with laughter and no regrets.
