More details have emerged surrounding one of the NFL’s more recent off-field controversies.
On Thursday, influencer Tianna Robillard — who was engaged to Cincinnati Bengals guard Cody Ford in April — shed light into their breakup on “Hot Mess with Alix Earle.”
Robillard said that she received two comments from a “moderator” while she was on TikTok live that indicated Ford had cheated on her.
“Not me getting a message that your ex is cheating on you,” wrote the fan.
Robillard said she then reached out to the commenter, who indicated that someone was trying to contact her.
Robillard noted she read through her messages and was able to “find what I needed.”
The influencer said while she was in Paris on a work trip Ford had leaked their Cincinnati-based address, and that the allegations of cheating felt “real.”
The next day, Robillard and her therapist called Ford to inform him they were aware of what had transpired.
“The words that were spoken, I had never heard out of his mouth, I had never received myself,” Robillard said. “It was really wild. It was like, ‘Who are you?’ I felt like my world was fake.”
The Bengals guard, who played only 78 offensive snaps in 2023, proposed to Robillard — who has nearly 350,000 Instagram followers — in April, around two years into their relationship.
“I was all in,” the 28-year-old Robillard said. “Making a commitment that big for my first time was scary, but I was ready.”
However, the social media creator claimed that Ford had cheated before, citing “trust stuff” even six months into their relationship.
When she learned that Ford had fallen back on his disloyal behavior, Robillard had enough, moving out of their offseason Dallas home and abandoning her ring.
While Robillard mentioned needing to “rebuild” and find her own living, the 27-year-old Ford remains with the Cincinnati Bengals, who report to training camp on July 23.
