Sumner Stroh speaks out after Adam Levine denies affair

Levine issued a statement yesterday.

Model Sumner Stroh, who claimed that she had an affair with Adam Levine, has responded to his statement on the matter.

In a now-viral TikTok video, Sumner claimed that she had a “year-long affair” with the Maroon 5 singer and posted screenshots from flirty texts he allegedly sent her.

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

She also claimed that he asked if he could name one his children after her.

The Maroon 5 singer, however, has admitted to sending flirty texts while married, but denied the suggestion that they had an affair.

In a statement shared 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.”

Sumner has since responded to Levine’s statement with a cryptic post on her Instagram story. Across a black screen, she simply wrote, “Someone get this man a dictionary.”

Adam is married to model Behati Prinsloo, and they have two daughters together. Behati is currently expecting their third child.
