Despite numerous public appearances and reports suggesting they've been spending significant time together, neither has confirmed nor denied their relationship status — and recent events have only intensified curiosity.
Olivia Ponton refuses to confirm or deny Joe Burrow romance
Following their attendance at the 2025 Met Gala, the internet was buzzing once again. Both Ponton and Burrow made their way to the star-studded event at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, but it remains unclear whether they arrived together or simply crossed paths.
However, it was what happened after the gala that raised more eyebrows.
While exiting a post-event gathering in New York City, Ponton was approached by TMZ reporters seeking clarity on the nature of her connection to Burrow. 'Hi Olivia, are you dating Joe Burrow?' a paparazzo asked, hoping to catch the model off-guard. Initially cheerful, Ponton quickly grew silent when Burrow's name came up. According to TMZ, 'She was initially jovial and warm with the pap in the New York City street — but as soon as the Burrow topic was broached, she shut down.'
She responded not with words, but by placing her hand over her face and swiftly entering a waiting car with her friends, refusing to entertain any further questions. The brief but telling encounter only added more intrigue to their already quiet narrative.
Just a day prior, the rumored couple was spotted together in Miami during the Formula 1 weekend. A now-viral clip shows Ponton stepping out of a sprinter van, followed closely by Burrow — though they made no attempt to interact publicly or display affection.

Still, the shared vehicle and coordinated timing left fans drawing conclusions.
This isn't the first time these two have been connected. Speculation surged back in December when Ponton was linked to a burglary report at Burrow's Ohio home. At the time, she told police she was staying at the house while Burrow was away for Monday Night Football. She also identified herself as one of his employees — a detail that added layers to the nature of their connection.
According to PEOPLE, insiders claimed, 'They have been hooking up since the early fall and are keeping it casual.' Ponton, known for her TikTok presence and LGBTQ+ advocacy, hasn't addressed the rumors publicly since. Meanwhile, Burrow — who had previously been in a long-term relationship with Olivia Holzmacher — has also kept mum on his personal life.
Whether they're simply close friends or something more, one thing is clear: Olivia Ponton and Joe Burrow are keeping everyone guessing.

Diljit Dosanjh reveals how Shakira helped him to sneak in kirpan at Met Gala: ‘If we get caught, we both will…'
Actor-singer Diljit Dosanjh made a splash at Met Gala 2025. At his debut appearance, Diljit exuded regal vibes in his Maharaja-inspired look. Talking about it, he revealed how he managed to sneak in his kirpan at the event with some help from Shakira who had no clue about his plan. He also recalled the moment when he broke down when he envisioned his Met Gala outfit which represented his homeland. In an interview with BBC Asian Network, Diljit Dosanjh said he knew that all eyes would be on him at the event. 'I knew it jab main jaaunga toh koi aur nahi dikhega. Chahe voh mujhe kum dikhaayen lekin jab main jaaungi toh koi nhi dikhega (When I go there no one will have eyes on anyone else. Even if they show me less, but when I go no one else will be visible). I always had this belief that when I go, I'll look like a king. When I went to the Cartier showroom, I asked them, 'Will you give me that necklace? It belonged to us, and you just took it.' They had promised me then, but it was stuck in an exhibition, so it couldn't be sent. I cried when I thought of my look—that I would wear an outfit with the Punjab flag on my back and Gurmukhi script written on it. That was a very big thought for me. It wasn't important that I go there, it was important that Punjab goes there, that the turban goes there. That thought alone made me cry,' he said. Diljit also revealed how he somehow managed to carry a kirpan, the ceremonial dagger which is a part of his religious belief. It was Shakira who unknowingly helped with her huge outfit to match this year's theme. Diljit recalled how he was denied permission to carry the kirpan to the Met Gala. However, he said he sought permission to at least click photos with his kirpan backstage. He added that, in the rush of the moment, he unintentionally ended up carrying it in the car. As he arrived at the event, Diljit knew he might be asked to hand it over. He said he was prepared to do so, but only if someone requested it. The Good Newwz added, "Shakira was ahead of me, and her dress had a lot of metal pins and such. No one wanted to go behind her because she's a big star, but I thought it was okay because she was in my group. So when she was going through the metal detector, it had to beep because of all the metal on her dress, and I had the Kirpan in my hand, so I just walked through with her. I thought, 'If we get caught, we both will; if not, then not.' I had the Kirpan under my cape. They checked Shakira but didn't check me." At Met Gala 2025, Diljit Dosanjh paid tribute to his Punjabi roots, decked up in a royal look with modern flair. Styled by designer Prabal Gurung, Diljit wore an ivory sherwani paired with an opulent embroidered cape. His cape featured a map of Punjab and Gurmukhi script, symbolising cultural pride, while the sherwani was detailed with lotus motifs and peacocks on its ornate belt. He completed the opulent look with a turban, a ceremonial sword, and eye-catching accessories.
