Influencer Tianna Robillard recently opened up about the painful end to her engagement with NFL player Cody Ford, shedding light on the circumstances that led to their split just two months after his proposal. Robillard shared her story on a recent episode of the Hot Mess podcast, hosted by fellow social media personality Alix Earle.
Robillard recounted how she began to feel unsupported in her career growth, particularly when she was offered a significant work opportunity in Paris in May. Despite her excitement, Ford seemed to have reservations about her accepting the opportunity. This unease planted seeds of doubt in Robillard’s mind about their relationship.
While in Paris, Robillard’s concerns deepened as she sensed something amiss with Ford back in Cincinnati. Upon returning, a message from a concerned fan prompted her to check her Instagram messages, where she discovered troubling evidence: Ford had been providing their home address to another woman while he was in Ohio for training. Screenshots of their conversations confirmed his infidelity.
Devastated by this discovery, especially in light of Ford’s recent proposal, Robillard felt her world unravel. She described feeling betrayed and questioned the authenticity of their entire relationship. Consulting with her therapist and supported by friends, Robillard confronted Ford and made the difficult decision to end their engagement. “My girls came over that night, helped me through it, and packed the car,” she recounted.
This wasn’t the first instance of infidelity in their relationship, Robillard revealed. Despite their previous efforts to move past similar incidents, she ultimately felt compelled to leave. Reflecting on the emotional turmoil of leaving behind their shared home and beloved pets, Robillard expressed frustration over the unequal aftermath of their breakup.
Despite facing backlash and negative messages from NFL fans, Robillard emphasized her determination to trust her instincts moving forward. She highlighted the importance of recognizing red flags early in relationships, firmly stating, “Once someone shows me who they are the first time, that’s what it’s gonna be.”
The relationship between Robillard and Ford, which began in April 2022 and saw Ford proposing in April 2024, came to an abrupt halt in June of the same year. Robillard’s candid revelations on the podcast have resonated with her followers, offering insight into navigating personal crises and moving forward with resilience.
