“He threatened to violently slap her”: Model tried to leave Shannon Sharpe after he was on Instagram Live with another woman

Shannon Sharpe’s life has been a mess ever since he got involved in one of the most infamous legal scandals of his life after a 20 year old model accused him of sexual assault. While Shannon Sharpe has constantly denied such claims, he was forced to reach a settlement with the woman after he was sued for $50 million. Now, grave details about Shannon Sharpe’s relationship with the woman have been released.

20 year old model wanted to separate after Shannon Sharpe was intimate with a different woman on Instagram Live

According to the court documents accessed by NBC Sports, it seems the two started off in a consensual relationship which soon turned violent against the 20 year old woman.



In September 2024, Shannon Sharpe had accidentally gone live on his Instagram as he was getting intimate with a woman.

As per court documents, the 20 year old model was not the woman Shannon Sharpe was getting intimate with on Instagram live.

Apparently, this incident had caused the 20 year old model to pull away from the NFL legend but it seems Shannon Sharpe was not very happy with this.

As per her 13 page complaint against Shannon Sharpe, the 20 year old model stated that, “After many months of manipulating and controlling Plaintiff — a woman more than thirty years younger than he — and repeatedly threatening to brutally choke and violently slap her…”

The complaint added, “Sharpe refused to accept the answer no and raped Plaintiff, despite her sobbing and repeated screams of ‘no.’”

The 20 year old model has also accused him of sexually assaulting her in January 2025 when the NFL legend allegedly did not wear a condom.

Shannon Sharpe paid $23 million to the 20 year old model even though she asked for $50 million

Despite constant denials, Shannon Sharpe did end up reaching a settlement with the 20 year old model. As per reports, Shannon Sharpe paid her a whopping $23 million, instead of the $50 million that he was sued for.

Shortly after settling the settlement with the woman, Shannon Sharpe was fired from his ESPN show and this has shocked fans.
