Instagram model who accused Maroon 5 frontman of cheating on his supermodel wife Bihati Prinsloo is now apologizing to her.
On September 19, 2022, Instagram model and influencer, Sumner Stroh leaked Adam’s Instagram messages that he sent her during and after their alleged affair.
The 23-year-old college student said that she and the Moves Like Jagger singer were involved in a romantic relationship for almost a year.
“Essentially, I was having an affair with a man who is married to a Victoria’s Secret supermodel,” she said while referring to Adam’s wife, Behati.
“At the time, I was young and naive. And I mean, quite frankly, I feel exploited. I wasn’t in the scene like I am now, so I was definitely easily manipulated.”
The model did not explain her relationship with the singer in detail; however, she shared his messages with her 385,000 followers on TikTok.
“It is unreal how f***ing hot you are. Like it blows my mind,” the Payphone singer wrote in one his DMs.
“You are 50 times hotter in person,” he added.
Stroh added that she and Levine were ‘seeing each other for about a year’ and then lost contact.
She also accused the 43-year-old musician of being of being cold-hearted and insensitive.
“Ok serious question. I’m having another baby and if it’s [a] boy I really wanna name it Sumner. You ok with that? DEAD serious,” the musician asked his ex-girlfriend in an Instagram message after breaking up with her.
Sumner said that she couldn’t believe what she was reading and she felt like she was in ‘hell.’
“I mean my morals were unknowingly compromised. I was completely manipulated,” she said in her viral TikTok video.
According to Daily Mail, “Stroh did not provide an exact timeline of the affair; however, the allegations have emerged just five days after Prinsloo confirmed her pregnancy on an Instagram post amid heavy speculation.”
Now the Texas native issued an apology to the Victoria’s Secret Model and Adam’s wife, Bihati Prinsloo; “I thought your marriage was over.”
“The most important part that I definitely glossed over was the fact that I was under the impression that their marriage was over,” the model said in her follow-up TikTok video.
“I believed they were keeping it quiet to avoid the negative press because, as I had said, I was new to LA so I just assumed that with celebrities of the caliber that’s just how it was.”
“And that’s why I feel exploited because he knew I believed everything he said because of my vulnerable position of being new to LA,” she added.
The young model further said that as soon as she realized that she was being manipulated and mislead, she ended things with the musician.
“I now realize that was likely a manipulation tactic of his…just hiding in plain sight. As soon as I realized that was not the case, I cut things off with him.”
“In retrospect, I wish I would’ve questioned things more. I wish I wasn’t so naïve, but you know, being naïve is no excuse for what I did in the role I played for this.”
“Again, in no way was I trying to gain sympathy and I fully realize I’m not the victim in this. I’m not the one who is really getting hurt here, it’s Behati and her children. And for that I am so, so, sorry.”
