AceShowbiz - Travis Hunter's fiancee has stolen the attention in a negative way while he may be still celebrating his Heisman Trophy win. Leanna Lenee has come under fire over her attitude in a video which was taken during a photo session with his fans at an scheduled event.
In the footage that has circulated online, the NFL player was taking pictures with his fans while Leanna was sitting on a couch nearby. Seemingly bored, she then asked him in a bossy manner, "What do you want me to do...I just sit here then."
It's not clear what Travis said to respond to her, but he was clearly distracted by her complaint. It did not take long for social media users to weigh in on Leanna's attitude in the video, with many urging the athlete to dump her.
"She got to go! She has to read the room. She's already bringing bad energy to what should be an amazing event for him. Poor baby," someone commented on the clip which was posted on Hollywood Unlocked's Instagram page. Another advised, "He needs to drop that zero and find a hero."
A third similarly said, "Let her go as fast as you can...," as another claimed, "She's NOT the ONE CHAMP!.." A fifth pointed out, "She seems jealous of him because when you love someone you're supportive!"
"He couldn't even focus on the people who came to see him ! Her negativity is overwhelming," another critic weighed in. Someone else blasted Leanna, "Embarrassing your man like this in public & on his day is SICK & diabolical."
Another comment read, "Broooo somebody talk to him about her man it's been too many times she's been a problem. He's the Heisman winner what you expect, she killing the vibe and he can't even enjoy his success."
The video comes on the heels of Travis winning the Heisman Trophy, which was presented in New York City on Saturday, December 14. In his speech, the Colorado Buffaloes cornerback/wide receiver thanked his fiancee, before mentioning his mother Ferrante Edmonds.
"First off, I want to thank God. I never thought I'd be in this position,' he began his speech. "It's crazy. Your belief will take you a long way. It's actually crazy, man. Thank you, thank you, thank you. First, I want to thank my fiancee and my mother."
Travis was then criticized for thanking his fiancee before his mom. "Congrats to Travis Hunter. But... to thank your girlfriend before your own mother is wild..," wrote one user on X, formerly known as Twitter.
A baffled user asked, "Travis Hunter thanked his Fiance [sic] before his Mom?!" A third person said, "Travis Hunter thanked his girl before his mom, take that trophy back."
