Zach Wilson’s ex-girlfriend appears to be dating his college roommate, Washington Commanders wide receiver Dax Milne, after she seemingly accused the Jets quarterback of cheating on her with his mom’s best friend.
Milne revealed his relationship with his best friend’s ex, Abbey Gile, in a romantic Instagram post this Saturday.
“Word on the street,” he wrote alongside two photos of him on a beach holding hands and cuddling his new flame, who never showed her face.
Sports site uStadium shared the post and said “word on the IG streets” was that the mystery beauty was Gile, saying that former BFFs and roommates Wilson and Milne “no longer follow each other on Twitter or IG.”
The site claims Gile split with Wilson, her high school sweetheart, earlier this year. One commenter accused Gile of being a ‘hommie hopper’ by dating her exes best friend.
In a since-deleted comment, she said that Wilson “was sleeping with his mom’s best friend … that’s the real homie hopper,” she wrote with two laughing emojis.
Gile soon deleted her Instagram account, and Milne blocked any comments to his initial romantic post.
The mom’s best friend, nor Zach himself, have commented in response to the rumor.
The rumors sparked a series of memes, with one joking that Wilson “did play for the Cougars”, as well as seemingly admiring posts from other gridiron stars.
“Zach Wilson is the goat,” tweeted former wide receiver Chad Johnson, using a common acronym for the greatest of all time.
“Confirmed,” replied DK Metcalf with a laughing emoji.
However, Wilson’s mom, influencer Lisa Neeleman Wilson, showed up on social media looking very emotional. In a nearly 30 minute long Instagram video she decried the evils of social media and online predators.
Instead of referring to her son’s love life, however, she spoke of the pain of her daughter turning on her and hating her because of “satan” working through social media.
“I full-on thought that I had mastered parenting … I was like, ‘I’m freakin’ badass, I have a kid in the NFL,’” she said, saying she was “in denial” of their lives online. “Guys, you need to take back your title as parent … You’re in charge of these beautiful babies, and I failed horribly,” she said of a “sneaky a–hole” who messaged dark porn to her daughter.
