Congratulations on your engagement but you might have to disengage because something about this woman man. The way she was talking to you, she was talking like she was really that chick.

Travis Hunter explains conflict with fiancee

After the Colorado Buffaloes beat the Oklahoma State Cowboys 52-0 on Nov. 29, Travis Hunter had a viral interaction with Leanna Lenee where she appeared to refuse to hug him and looked upset.

On Tuesday, during an appearance on "The Pivot" podcast, Hunter explained what happened in the viral moment.

“There’s a lot of stuff that could be happening in the stands, people don’t understand that,” Hunter said. “She might look irritated towards me, but at the same time, there’s a lot of stuff she deals with during the game. There’s a lot of stuff people don’t see off the camera.
“I just let people talk. Me, I’m a big troller so I just troll the internet. I really don’t care what they think or what they say about us so, I just go on there and troll. They talk about her, I post her to make them even more mad than they already are so they try to find something to hate, try to find something to break up on our relationship but ain’t nothing there, ain’t nothing you can find cause I love my woman.”

Travis Hunter and his fiancee have addressed any perceived cracks between them decisively.
