Clearing Up the Sean Murphy-Bunting Rumors
Following her announcement, fans began speculating that Althoff’s new beau might be NFL player Sean Murphy-Bunting, given their past connection. In July, Murphy-Bunting, a cornerback for the Arizona Cardinals, was spotted carrying Althoff out of a bar, fueling earlier rumors of a potential romance between the two.
However, Althoff quickly shut down the chatter, addressing the speculation directly in a follow-up post. “It is not Sean in the video. Out of respect for his girlfriend, can you guys please stop spreading that rumor,” she stated. She also emphasized that her current relationship is with someone fans would never guess.
“[I] am not dating anyone who you’d ever guess, so leave all these random guys who I’m friends with—or some who I’ve never heard of—alone lol,” Althoff added, clarifying that Murphy-Bunting was not the man in her TikTok.
Murphy-Bunting also weighed in on the situation, taking to X (formerly Twitter) to confirm, “That’s not me.”

Fans React to Bobbi’s Soft Launch
While the identity of Althoff’s partner remains a mystery, fans flooded her TikTok with supportive comments. “I just want Bobbi to be happy,” one user wrote, while another celebrated her cryptic approach, saying, “Yes, with the soft launch!!”
Others congratulated her, expressing excitement for her new chapter. “OMG!! Who is that?! Congratulations, I hope you found love again,” another commenter added.
Althoff’s new relationship marks her first public romance since her divorce from Cory Althoff in July 2023. While some fans speculated that her viral interview with Drake might have contributed to the breakup, Althoff has repeatedly denied any romantic involvement with the rapper.
By keeping her new relationship low-key, Althoff continues to prioritize her happiness while maintaining a sense of privacy. Whether or not she decides to share more about her mystery man, her fans remain invested in her journey toward love and fulfillment.
