As the 2025 NFL Draft unfolds in Green Bay, all eyes are on Colorado Buffaloes standout Travis Hunter — not just for his exceptional two-way play but also for his relationship with fiancée Leanna Lenee. Their bond has been both celebrated and scrutinized, making headlines beyond the football field.
On the eve of the draft, Lenee surprised Hunter with a lavish gift: a solid gold Rolex watch and bracelet, intended for him to wear during the event. The heartfelt moment, captured on video, showcases Lenee presenting the gift to Hunter in his hotel room, eliciting his signature smile as he admires the timepiece.
This gesture comes amid past controversies, including criticism of Lenee’s demeanor during the Heisman Trophy ceremony. Despite public scrutiny, Hunter has consistently defended her, emphasizing their strong connection.
Their relationship began in 2022 when Hunter reached out to Lenee on Instagram. Initially friends, their bond deepened after attending a birthday dinner together.
Lenee, born in England and a Kennesaw State University graduate, has been a constant presence in Hunter’s life, supporting his moves from Jackson State to Colorado. Their engagement was announced in February 2024, with Hunter proposing with a ring reportedly worth $100,000.
Throughout their relationship, they’ve exchanged extravagant gifts: Hunter gifted Lenee a customized “Hello Kitty” Model X Tesla, while she surprised him with a Ram 1500 TRX truck. These gestures reflect their mutual appreciation and commitment.
Despite facing online backlash, particularly after the Heisman ceremony, Hunter remains unwavering in his support. He addressed critics directly, stating, “My girl been with me for five years… Y’all go do something else with y’all life.”
As Hunter awaits his NFL future, projected to be a top pick, he does so with Lenee by his side, symbolizing their enduring partnership. Their journey, marked by love, resilience, and mutual support, continues to captivate fans and observers alike.
