ON Tuesday (September 20), Adam Levine denied having an affair on his Instagram Stories, following a shocking claim by Instagram model Sumner Stroh.

“A lot is being said about me right now and I want to clear the air. I used poor judgement in speaking with anyone other than my wife in ANY kind of flirtatious manner. I did not have an affair, nevertheless, I crossed the line during a regrettable period of my life,” he wrote.

“In certain instances, it became inappropriate. I have addressed that and taken proactive steps to remedy this with my family. My wife and my family are all I care about in this world. To be this naive and stupid enough to risk the only thing that truly matters to me was the greatest mistake I could ever make,” he added.

He noted that he takes full responsibility of this manner and will never repeat the mistake again. Both he and Behati (Prinsloo) will “get through it together”.

Stroh claimed she had an affair with the musician in a TikTok video she shared on Monday. She alleged that she was having an affair with ‘a man who is married to a Victoria’s Secret supermodel.’

“At that 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 very easily manipulated,” she added.

She took action and shared her story online after a friend attempted to leak screenshots to an unnamed tabloid. 

The Instagram model named Adam in the video and included screenshots of the direct messages claimed to be sent by the father-of-two. In one message that Stroh says was from Levine, the person asks her for advice on naming his third child. 

The message reads: “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.”

Levine has been married to Behati Prinsloo, Victoria’s Secret model, since 2014 and has two children together. They announced that they are expecting another baby just earlier this month. – The Vibes, September 21, 2022
