Mike Vrabel and Dianna Russini have sparked infidelity rumors for the last day or so after a few pictures showed the two being pretty intimate while hanging out at a resort in Arizona. Vrabel can be seen holding hands with the sports reporter and side-hugging her while admiring a sunset.
The two went on to hang out in a hot tub next to each other for some time before leaving the pool area separately. Funnily enough, the affair has hardly been covered by football insiders, who are usually waiting to pounce on the first mention of any news about cheating or affairs, something which Craig Carton was happy to highlight in his tweet.

“So weird how none of the NFL insiders broke the Russini/Vrabel Story,”Craig Carton wrote.

Both Mike Vrabel and the reporter have blatantly denied that they are having an affair. In fact, Russini mentioned that she was at the resort with a group of friends who were not photographed by curious paps. Vrabel too called out those who are labeling him as a wife-cheater and simply admitted that he was interacting with Dianna Russini in an “innocent” manner.

Mike Vrabel being spotted in public with Dianna Russini in an intimate manner has got varied reactions from many. While many are calling out Vrabel for cheating on his wife as a married man, there are others, like LeSean McCoy, who feel that the Pats coach did nothing wrong.
Tennessee Titans Head Coach Mike Vrabel during the Tennessee Titans pre-match press conference at Syon House, Brentford, United Kingdom on 19 October 2018.
“I like Mike, I love Mike. I mind my business. They work together. Everybody makes something big out of everything. He’s a big-time coach, he’s a big-time player. He was just in the Super Bowl, they got something to talk about. That’s what happened. I ain’t see nothing wrong with it.”LeSean McCoy said.
Even though the likes of McCoy might agree with Vrabel’s actions, a majority of fans feel otherwise. Both Vrabel and Russini are in the wrong here, since they are both married to different people.
Some fans have also been digging up Russini’s previous comments about her own husband. In one particular interview, Russini refers to her husband as a pretty “average” guy, and that if he were more “beautiful,” she would definitely be posting about him a lot more.
