The Athlete’s Assistant

January 8, 2016 Blind Gossip

sports balls 6SOLVED!

[Blind Gossip] Not so long ago, this superstar pro athlete’s super close relationship with his male roommate/assistant/personal trainer became a big deal.

Their friendship supposedly imploded over the athlete’s promise/failure to come out of the closet.

When the press got wind of it, the athlete quickly started dating an actress (perhaps to put rumors to rest about his sexuality), and the assistant suddenly shut up and moved away (perhaps because he was paid off to do so).

Here’s a quick update: The ex-assistant just got engaged. To a woman. And he wants to invite the athlete to the wedding. Does that mean that they are “friends” again?

[Optional] What do you think is the truth about any of these individuals?

SOLVED!

Athlete: Aaron Rodgers

Actress: Olivia Munn

Remember back in 2013, when Aaron Rodgers was accompanied to banquets and other official events by Kevin Lanflisi, the man who had been his personal assistant and roommate since 2008?

Five minutes later, a bunch of NFL players were rumored to be coming out of the closet. The rumors swirled that Aaron Rodgers was one of the NFL players who was coming out.

Another five minutes later, something went terribly wrong with the long-time Rodgers-Lanflisi relationship.

Lanflisi let loose with a string of angry and cryptic Twitter messages like “I wish you would learn to love people and use things… not the other way around,” and “Silence always comes with an expiration date.”

Another five minutes later, Lanflisi moved out of Rodgers’ house.

Another five minutes later, Aaron Rodgers started dating actress Olivia Munn.

Whew! That was an exhausting series of events packed into an incredibly short time frame!

Well, three years later, Aaron Rodger and Olivia Munn are now done as a couple.

But you may be wondering: Whatever happened to Kevin Lanflisi?

In January of 2016, we found out that Lanflisi was engaged. In fact, he married a girl named Sarah a couple of months later.

Here is a photo from their wedding:

If their wedding outfits look creative, it is likely because Sarah works works as a TV costume designer. They live in Southern California.

They look incredibly happy, don’t they?

What about Aaron and Kevin? Well, we hear that they are speaking again. Rodgers didn’t go to Lanflisi’s wedding (likely because it would have created a huge uproar), but it’s nice that he is reconnecting with old friends again.

Congratulations to Kookywooky for being first with the correct response!

Congratulations to Kevin and Sarah on their wedding!

Congratulations to Aaron on being a free man! We can’t wait to see what happens next…

    The Rodgers/Munn engagement is a false alarm, Munn shot it down on her Instagram.

    Rodgers – so true! It just came out that he and Olivia Munn are engaged…interesting timing! That would explain why he played like such crap these past few weeks – he was stressing about all of this! As a Packer fan I’m glad he pulled it together this week though!

    Dear Aaron Rodgers:

    You need the right kind of man in your life. The kind that will walk up to your e-xboyfriend and while smiling the whole time, tell him about all the many ways you will turn his teeth upside down if he doesn’t keep his mouth shut. I’m your man. I also make a really mean steak and you can totally take me out in public without being embarrassed. #callmemaybe

    Why didn’t anyone ever suspect Cam Newton? I have a very strong feeling that he will come out at some point. I’m surprised that more people don’t see it.

    Aaron Rodgers, obvi.
    The truth? The truth is I find this hard to believe. Kevin didn’t go away quietly. He kept posting tweets about Aaron up until a year ago. Super spiteful tweets. Now he’s marrying a beard? A former boyfriend who has no fame and has been media silent and off the radar for a year and is now Marrying a beard? Dang. Aaron Rodgers should freaking run for president with that kind of power and influence.

    Certainly Aaron Rodgers And Kevin Lanfisi,No Doubt Aaron’s Gay,And The Only Reason Kevin’s Marrying Her Is To Get Him Back,Even With Those Sly Digs On Social Media He Still Clearly Loves Him,And Will Even Live A Lie For Him,Aaron Deserves To Be Exposed For What He’s Done,Although I Pity Him For His Clear Inner Self Pity And Hatred Of Who He Really Is,He’d Be An Icon For Coming Out If He Chose To,Which Is The Sad Thing.

    Olivia Munn is beyond gorgeous. Why does she feel the need to date the gay football player? My only guess is that the rest of the hollywood straight guys are pigs.

    If you look up Kevin Lanflisi and Sarah Mcarthur’s wedding registry, they registered for some pillows – one says “Mr. & Mrs.” on it and the other has a picture of a key on it, as in “lock your lips and throw away the key.” I can’t help but wonder if this is an inside joke/subtext/a cry for help?

    Aaron Rogers “dating” Olivia Munn. Every relationship has it’s ups and downs, I guess., and if it ends up in the tabloids, that’s just one of the prices of fame and fortune.

    • SpocksGirlfriend says

      January 9, 2016 at 7:54 am

      That’s because the people who are heads of these industry are often conservative themselves, and have a skewed perception of what the average American on the street thinks. Eventually, as more Gen X’ers and Millenials replace the Baby Boomers and Greatest Generation honchos the worlds of sports and showbiz will catch up to our reality.

    Aaron Rodgers must really have a lot of money (and a lot of fear of coming out of the closet) if he’s paying for his ex to go through with a bearded wedding

    • Manda.Lea says

      January 9, 2016 at 12:27 am

      He’s got TONS of money and he’s not a big spender like most NFL stars. I can’t fathom going to such lengths to hide myself from the world when it’s already so obvious.

    Aaron Rodgers (Kevin Lanflisi)
    Olivia Munn

    I do think they were in a relationship. The pictures and things Rodgers said about him just give that impression. I just don’t think it’s really anyone’s business. He will come out if and when he is ready.

  58. Chi83 says

    January 8, 2016 at 12:10 pm

    Athlete: Aaron Rodgers
    Actress: Olivia Munn

    Kevin Lanflisi is getting married. Maybe he is bi. Anyway he probably just wants to rub it in Aaron’s face. Aaron did Kevin grimy. I think sexuality should be a private thing if you want it to be, but you should do right by the person you love. I don’t like Aaron for this reason.

  59. bostonmark says

    January 8, 2016 at 12:04 pm

    Ok, for starters, Aaron Rogers is a homo…100%. Second, that lanfisi (or whatever) guy needs to get out of my way so that I can have Aaron to myself. Aaron, if you’re reading this, CALL ME! Woof. And lastly, Aaron, stop using our future nest egg on buying your ex boyfriend’s silence.
