Travis Hunter Deletes Instagram Amid Fiancee Leanna Lenee Controversy
3 min read
Colorado football star Travis Hunter has found himself at the center of a swirling controversy involving his fiancée, Leanna Lenee. The uproar began with the resurfacing of alleged videos of Lenee, which quickly went viral, leading to intense scrutiny from fans and social media users. In response to the backlash, Hunter deactivated his Instagram account, sparking widespread speculation.
The Viral Videos and Backlash
The controversy gained traction after a clip purportedly showing Leanna Lenee twerking at a party surfaced on social media. The video, shared by Akademiks TV’s X account, depicted a woman—allegedly Lenee—dressed in a miniskirt and dancing with another man.
This wasn’t the only video to raise eyebrows. Another clip, reportedly from a music video Lenee appeared in three years ago, emerged online on December 21. Both videos triggered a wave of criticism from college football fans, with some questioning Hunter’s choice of a romantic partner.
The criticism escalated when NFL legend Dez Bryant weighed in on the matter. Bryant openly criticized Lenee in a now-deleted rant, further fanning the flames of the debate.
