Travis Hunter, the college football star was awarded the Heisman Trophy on Saturday, 14th December and while Travis got emotional on stage while receiving the award, his fiancée Leanna Lenee had a really strange reaction to the whole situation. In a viral clip it was seen that Leanee did not stand up on her own as a show of respect when Travis got awarded the Heisman Trophy. The clip showed everyone around Travis standing up when he was being awarded the Heisman Trophy and then Deion pats on Leanna’s back which then makes her stand up.

The clip then continues to show that Travis goes to hug her and his coach Deion Sanders. This viral clip of 20 seconds has shocked many of Travis’ fans who are now questioning Leanna’s intentions.
A few weeks ago, after Travis won a game against the Oklahoma State, a clip showed both Travis and Leanna arguing with each other. But both Travis and Leanna immediately defended their relationship with Leanna putting out a statement under a post for Travis on her Instagram that said, “These pics were taken 30 seconds after that clip by the way. Pls remember that social media is not real, and 5 seconds is not enough to understand a situation. You also never know what a person can handle mentally. Thank you baby for always trying to cheer me up. You truly are the greatest partner a girl could ever ask for.”
But fans were still irked by Leanna’s reaction on the field and many thought that even though Travis performed so well on the field, Leanna took away all the spotlight from him.

Travis’ Heisman Trophy day was full of drama but what really matters is how far Travis has come and what a great year awaits for him in 2025.
