Gia Duddy and NFL Boyfriend Andrei Iosivas Engage in Public Spat with Troll

Gia Duddy and Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas have seemingly confirmed their romance amidst an online dispute with a social media troll. The incident occurred after Duddy shared photos from the Bengals' recent game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Iosivas, 26, entered the comments section of Duddy's post to defend her from a troll. He located the man's wife and wrote, "plz get ur husband off my girls page." The troll responded with an insult regarding Duddy's past relationships, to which both Duddy and Iosivas replied.

Duddy, who previously went viral during the 2023 NFL Draft while with then-boyfriend Will Levis, has been linked to Iosivas for some time. She had previously teased her new relationship on TikTok, with online sleuths identifying Iosivas as her new partner. While she had spoken about dating a Bengals player, the couple had not publicly confirmed their relationship until this exchange.

Duddy had previously soft-launched her relationship with Iosivas in August, sharing a photo of a man's arm with visible tattoos matching Iosivas' own. She also posted a video of him at the Cincinnati Open. This public confirmation follows a period where Duddy experienced a privacy breach when intimate video footage of her and Levis was leaked online.

Levis' mother, Beth, spoke about the incident in May 2024 on the Ross Tucker Football Podcast, detailing how her son hired cybersecurity specialists and a private investigator to address the leaked video. She stated that the content was stolen from Levis' laptop, which had been breached earlier, and believed an Eastern European hacking group was responsible.
