What happened?
Stroh’s TikTok quickly went viral, with currently 12.9 million views. She said, as reported by The Independent:
I was having an affair with a man who's married to a Victoria's Secret model. At the time, I was young, I was naive, and, I mean quite frankly, I feel exploited.
She shared some screenshots of flirtatious Instagram direct messages allegedly from Levine. One read:
It’s truly unreal how f***ing hot you are. Like it blows my mind.
While Stroh did not mention when the apparent affair took place, she did say:
Adam and I were seeing each other for about a year. After I stopped talking to him for a period of months, this is how he came back into my life.
She then showed another screenshot of a message allegedly from Levine that read:
Ok serious question. I'm having another baby and if it's [a] boy I really wanna name it Sumner. You ok with that? DEAD serious.
Why is she speaking out now? Stroh said that while 'I never wanted to come forward because obviously, I know the implications of doing what I do,' she apparently sent the screenshots to 'friends I thought I trusted' and one of them attempted to sell the story to the press. 'So here I am,' she concluded.
