“Don’t speak for her. You’ve done enough.”

Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause has weighed in on allegations of cheating levelled against Maroon 5 singer Adam Levine.

Yesterday, Instagram model Sumner Stroh claimed that she had a “year-long affair” with Adam Levine, and shared screenshots of flirty messages he allegedly sent her.

“Essentially, I was having an affair with a man who is married to a Victoria’s Secret supermodel,” she said in the now viral TikTok. “I was young and naïve. And I mean, quite frankly, I feel exploited.”

Levine denied allegations that he cheated, but admitted to sending flirty messages while married.

In a statement released yesterday, he wrote: “A lot is being said about me right now and I want to clear the air. I used poor judgment in speaking with anyone other than my wife in ANY kind of flirtatious manner. I did not have an affair, nevertheless, I crossed the line during a regrettable period in my life.

“In certain instances it became inappropriate; I have addressed that and taken proactive steps to remedy this with my family. My wife and my family is all I care about in this world. To be this naive and stupid enough to risk the only thing that truly matters to me was the greatest mistake I could ever make.

“I will never make it again. I take full responsibility. We will get through it. And we will get through it together.”

Responding to the statement, Chrishell Stause suggested that Adam should only speak for himself and not his wife.

Taking to Twitter, she wrote: “When apologising for cheating publicly, I hate the we will get through it together part from a man. Don’t speak for her. You’ve done enough.”

Chrishell herself went through a very public divorce from her former partner Justin Hartley in 2019.
