This celebrity couple’s relationship did not last long. Jena Frumes is an Instagram model and influencer with over two million followers. You can bet her romance with pro-NFL wide receiver Antonio Brown was all over her Instagram page.
After a public spat and photos of him cuddling him with an ex, Frumes fired back by publicizing his private phone number, she said, to encourage followers to harass him until she gets her stuff back. Back in Brown’s court, he said that he was doing the right thing. That’s some serious drama! And as you can see, she also dated Jason Derulo for a bit.
