Deion Sanders ends interview abruptly after Karreuche Tran question amid rumors he's dating Chris Brown's ex
The Colorado football coach and NFL legend, 57, has been linked romantically to Tran, 37, ever since they were spotted on a lunch date together earlier this year.
And following his revelation last week that he recently had his bladder removed after being diagnosed with cancer, Sanders' apparent new flame was seen by his side at the hospital in a vlog from the day of his surgery.
The video - shared last week on his family's YouTube channel, 'Well Off Media' - captures him sitting in a hospital room before undergoing the procedure with an emotional Tran right next to him.
The stunning actress and model, who previously dated Chris Brown , was visibly upset in the clip as she explained what Deion was about to go through and why.
Her appearance at the hospital only fueled speculation that she is dating Sanders, who hilariously ended an interview early this week when asked about Tran.

During an appearance on the 'Say What Needs To Be Said' podcast with former NFL player Asante Samuel, the two-time Super Bowl champion was asked about the nature of their relationship after she was seen by his side in the vlog.
'Don't kill the messenger,' Samuel said at the end of the interview. 'Everyone seen Karrueche Tran by your side during your hospital visit. Everyone wants to know what that friendship is.'
Sanders then jokingly pretended his connection was cutting out in a bid to dodge the question, before closing his computer and ending the call.
Samuel burst into laughter before going on to praise him for his leadership and wisdom.
Tran's most famous previous relationship came when she began dating R&B icon Brown back in 2011, before they briefly split when he reconnected with his ex-girlfriend Rihanna a year later.
In 2013 the pair rekindled their romance for another two years, only for it to end on a sour note when Brown was accused of sending her threatening text messages and voicemails.
A judge granted Tran a five-year restraining order against him in 2017 after she shared evidence of the messages in court, while she also alleged that he punched her in the stomach twice and pushed her down the stairs.
She also briefly dated Migos rapper Quavo, which came before a longer-term relationship with former NFL star Victor Cruz from 2017-21.
As for Sanders, he has been married twice to first wife Carolyn Chambers, with whom he had daughter Deiondra and son Deion Jr, before tying the knot again with Pilar Biggers-Sanders - the mother of sons Shilo and Shedeur as well as another daughter in Shelomi.
Following his divorce from Pilar, Deion was also previously engaged to Tracey Edmonds before they called it off in 2019.
In a press conference with his doctor last week, Sanders shared that he is now cancer-free after having his bladder removed earlier this year.

Naughties rap star arrested for gun possession
Rapper Soulja Boy was arrested in Los Angeles early Sunday in connection with a weapons charge, after police pulled over a vehicle he was riding in. The 35-year-old rapper, whose real name is DeAndre Cortez Way, was arrested in connection with suspicion of being a felon in possession of a firearm, the Los Angeles Police Department told TMZ. The traffic stop involving the Crank That (Soulja Boy) artist took place at around 2:30 a.m. on Melrose Avenue, LAPD officials told NBCLA. Police told TMZ that 'officers spotted a firearm in' the vehicle the Turn My Swag On performer had been in. It was not immediately clear why the vehicle the Yahhh! artist was riding in was initially pulled over. Daily Mail has reached out to the LAPD for further comment on the story. The rapper, whose real name is DeAndre Cortez Way, was arrested in connection with suspicion of being a felon in possession of a firearm Soulja Boy previously took to Instagram Stories Saturday sharing a series of clips documenting a busy weekend following his 35th birthday, which was last Monday. Soulja Boy included frames of his trip to his SODMG Brand clothing store off Melrose Avenue, the LA shopping thoroughfare where he was arrested early Sunday. Among the Stories clips included a promotional picture for a party at the Hollywood, California nightclub Poppy in honor of his recent birthday celebration. Soulja Boy, who was past involved with Blac Chyna, captioned the shot, 'Who's sliding with me?' Soulja Boy, who has past clashed with Kanye West, also shared footage from inside his SODMG Brand studios. Inside, the studio was decorated with a plaque commemorating 23,000,000 streams on Spotify and another boasting over 1 billion streams on seperate platform. 'I don't need no security,' Soulja Boy said in another frame which appeared to be from the nightclub, where was surrounded by dozens of partygoers celebrating in his honor. At the club, the DJ played Soulja Boy's 2007 hit Kiss Me thru the Phone, which he sang along with on the microphone, with a hand rolled cigarette in his fingers. Eight months into 2025, it's safe to say the Speakers Going Hammer rapper has had a challenging year. In April, a Los Angeles court ordered him to pay $4 million in compensatory damages in connection with a sexual assault case he was involved in amid allegations from an ex-assistant. Soulja Boy told Rolling Stone at the time of the court decision that he has never been 'charged or convicted of this, criminally,' in reference to sexual assault. 'The district attorney never filed charges,' he said. 'So, to be accused of this civilly is beyond me. I've never done any of the things they're accusing me of. I just feel like this is very unfair.' He later told the publication in a statement: 'I want to make it clear that I'm innocent. This case was never about justice. 'It was about money and personal gain, and I will not let that stand. I am committed to filing an appeal and fighting for the truth to be revealed.'

Ed Kelce shares picture of Taylor Swift with his late girlfriend as Travis and Jason's dad mourns her death
Ed Kelce has shared a picture of his late girlfriend, Maureen Maguire, meeting Taylor Swift as he mourns her death. Maguire died on Friday at the age of 74, according to her obituary, surrounded by loved ones. Travis and Jason's father Ed posted the obituary on his Facebook to announce the news but has not otherwise commented so far on her death. He has, however, now shared pictures from their time together. The snap of Swift with the couple shows the three of them in Kansas City Chiefs merch, with the singer holding a card and what appears to be a friendship bracelet. Kelce also shared a photograph with Maguire from Saturday Night Live in March 2023 in New York, when three-time Super Bowl winner Travis was the guest host. In an interview last year with the Los Angeles Times, Kelce revealed how his girlfriend and Swift had struck up a bond. Maguire, according to Kelce, jokingly told Swift 'hey, that's my boyfriend' when the singer took a selfie with Travis and Jason's father at an NFL game. Maguire's obituary describes how, thanks to Kelce's influence, she developed a strong interest in football in the later years of her life. 'She also grew an unexpected love for football later in life, sharing many laughs and adventures with her beloved friend Ed Kelce and her loyal dog Butch,' the obituary said. 'Together, they traveled often and attended football games and concerts, and embraced every opportunity to enjoy life to the fullest.' It isn't known when Ed first met Maureen, or how. But Ed and Donna Kelce, the mother of Travis and Jason, went their separate ways after nearly 25 years of marriage around the time their sons were at college. They remain friends to this day, with Travis and Jason becoming two of the most famous names in the NFL. 'I don't hate him. We're friends to this day. We get along great,' Donna once said of her ex-husband Ed. 'We were like a tag team with you two (Travis and Jason). We got to do all sorts of fun things. When one of you had to go out of town, the other person would help with the other child. It was perfect.' In a 2023 documentary about the family, Ed explained that he and Donna stayed together to be better parents. 'If we had split as we probably both would have preferred, that would have been a nightmare with the logistics, getting kids where they had to be and providing all the support,' he said. Travis and Jason have not yet commented on Maguire's passing. Travis is currently in training camp with the Chiefs ahead of the upcoming 2025 season, which for his team starts on September 5 in Brazil against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Kelce family saw their fame reach unprecedented levels in September 2023, when Travis and Taylor's romance was confirmed by Swift attending a Chiefs game alongside Donna at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. Ed, who is also 74, recently told the Daily Mail in an exclusive interview how Maureen was with him when he met the singer for the first time. Since then, he has forged a close bond with one of music's biggest ever stars. Swift even seemingly refers to Ed in her song 'So High School'. 'I feel like laughing in the middle of practice / To that impression you did of your dad again,' Swift sings - Travis has repeatedly performed an impersonation of his dad on his New Heights podcast, which he hosts with his brother Jason. Ed has always spoken glowingly about Swift and her influence on his son - who affectionatelty calls him 'Papa'. He described her as 'a very smart, young lady' and 'a joy to be around' before February's Super Bowl.
