The video which was reportedly shared earlier on Wednesday, featured the former NFL player engaging in intimate behavior. Initially, after the alleged video was uploaded online on Shannon Sharpeโs Instagram, the 56-year-old shared a message claiming that his account had been hacked.
After the video went viral, various name were suggested including Michele Evans, who had a history with Shannon Sharpe.
However, let us remind you, previously in 2010, Michele Evans sought a restraining order against Sharpe, claiming that he had forced her to have s*x as he threatened her for life. Though, the order was later dismissed.
As per various reports, Michele Evans is currently suing Shannon for defamation, slander and emotional distress.
The other potential candidates who are linked with Sharpe in the alleged video includes Draya Michele, Sharpeโs assistant, an Instagram model Chelly, who later denied the accusations, clarifying her name is Nichelle.
ESPN reporter Michelle Beisner-Buck was also linked to Shannon Sharpe but she was getting surgery yesterday after her husband Joe drove a golf ball into her. Meanwhile, rumors also surfaced online of ESPN firing Shannon after the Instagram live story video went viral but these reports are fake with the analyst still very much employed/
