NFL Reporter Dianna Russini Under Investigation, Mike Vrabel Photos
NFL Reporter Dianna Russini Under Investigation Over Vacation Photos With Patriots’ Mike Vrabel
Dianna Russini is taking a time out.
After photos of the NFL reporter and New England Patriots’ head coach Mike Vrabel surfaced online, the news outlet is investigating the journalist, sources familiar with the situation at The Athletic told E! News.
The insiders shared that the New York Times-owned sports publication began an investigation into Russini immediately after Page Six published photos of her and Vrabel, with an initial review finding that the photos of the pair—both of whom are married—at a luxury resort in Arizona were taken in the presence of a larger friend group.
However, the sources noted that further investigation raised additional concerns, which are under review by the outlet. Additionally, Russini’s past coverage at The Athletic is also being reviewed and she will not be doing any reporting amid the investigation.
E! News has reached out to reps for Russini and Vrabel for comment and has not heard back. The Athletic declined E! News’ request for comment.
