Prominent NFL draft prospect Travis Hunter and his beloved girlfriend, Leanna Lenee, made a grand entrance at the NFL draft, stealing the spotlight in their distinctive attire. Snapshots captured by Getty Images reveal Hunter donning a vibrant pink suit jacket, while Lenee radiated elegance in a strapless black gown. A viral video shared online further captures a tender moment where Lenee presented Hunter with a stunning Rolex watch and bracelet as a pre-draft surprise, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
As Hunter was selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars as the highly anticipated second pick of the first round, Lenee stood by, her expression a blend of pride and joy. Unfortunately, following a deluge of online harassment, Lenee decided to delete her Instagram page, seeking refuge from the toxicity. Undeterred, Hunter continues to celebrate their love story through his social media posts, frequently sharing glimpses of their life together. He valiantly came to her defense when she faced online scrutiny, standing tall as a testament to their unwavering bond.
However, Hunter doesn't shy away from expressing his affection for his girlfriend on his Instagram page. In 2024, he shared a snap capturing them in a tender embrace, with a sleek new vehicle serving as their backdrop. As reported by Sports Illustrated, she has now become his fiancée. That very year, he also posted a glamorous picture of his girlfriend donning a stunning yellow gown. Furthermore, she stood by his side when he was honored with the prestigious Heisman Trophy. Alongside a photo of him, Lenee, and the coveted trophy, Hunter penned, "Thank You GOD." Hence, it came as no shock to see Lenee accompanying Hunter at the draft. The Getty image also depicted Hunter and Lenee posing alongside Ferrante Harris, Hunter's adoring mother. Meanwhile, Hunter's father, Travis Hunter Sr., was also present at the NFL draft, albeit restricted to the hotel and the draft venue due to his three-year probation, as noted by The Palm Beach Post. Unfortunately, Lenee faced online criticism for not standing immediately when Hunter won the Heisman Trophy, according to Sports Illustrated. In a defensive video showcasing his support for Lenee, Hunter revealed that their love story spans five years, having met in high school. In the video, Hunter emphasized that he and his girlfriend are virtually "inseparable."
