“October was a pretty hard month for month but thankfully I got this girl next to me,” Ponton, 23, wrote, including a video of her friend.
The Victoria’s Secret model did not elaborate further.
In May, the pair were spotted in the same circle — and seen leaving a black sprinter van at a Raising Cane’s event — for the Formula 1 race in Miami.
Although they aren’t prone to sharing much about their personal life, Burrow made some cryptic comments after the Bengals’ 39-34 loss to the Bills on Dec. 7.
“There’s a lot of things going on right now,” Burrow said when asked by a reporter if there was something on his mind because he seemed frustrated.
When asked if was football-related or personal, Burrow replied, “All the above.”
Burrow returned earlier than expected from a turf toe injury that required surgery in September.
“I think I’ve been through more than most, and it’s certainly not easy on the brain or the body, so I’m just trying to have fun doing it again,” he added.
It was the third significant injury of Burrow’s career.
The Bengals (6-10) were eliminated from the playoff race in Week 15 after shutout loss to the Ravens.
They host the Browns (4-12) in Sunday’s season finale.
Burrow and Ponton were first linked when in December 2024 when she reported a break-in at his Ohio home, which was a part of a string of robberies targeting high-profile athletes.
Ponton reportedly identified herself as one of Burrow’s employees.
No one was injured, but the home was ransacked, according to a report provided by the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office.
Burrow addressed the incident in a press conference, but he did not name Ponton, who never spoke publicly about it.
