Men doing men things, as per usual 🙄
On 19 September, Sumner shared a now-viralvideo in which she claimed she had an affair with the 43-year-old Maroon 5 star. She expressed that she was forced to come forward with her story after sending screenshots of her interactions with Adam to a friend she thought she trusted at the time, who attempted to sell her story to a tabloid.
"Essentially, I was having an affair with a man who's married to a Victoria's Secret model," Sumner said. "At the time, I was young, I was naïve, and quite frankly, I feel exploited. I wasn't in the scene like I am now, so I was definitely easily manipulated."She's teaching a master class in the post-divorce glow-up. And we should all be taking notes.Sumner added: “In retrospect, I wish I would've questioned things more.
Soon after her allegations came to light, Adam Levine shared a lengthy statement on his Instagram Story in which he admitted that he "crossed the line" and "used poor judgment" but denied having an affair. Cue the people of the internet coming forward with their hot takes on the situation, which included, yes, you guessed it – placing the majority of the blame on Sumner instead of criticising Adam for his actions.
