Kelsey Plum and Devin Booker found themselves embroiled in controversy due to a prank Twitter handle’s false claim suggesting they were romantically involved. The rumor, which gained significant traction on social media, turned out to be completely unfounded, yet it subjected the pair to unwarranted attention.
The situation unfolded when Plum was captured sharing a kiss with her husband, Darren Waller, in a photo that mistakenly led many to believe it was Booker. This image quickly circulated on Twitter, sparking widespread discussion.
As of the latest update, the post from October 2023 has amassed 10 million views, 1.3k comments, 2.5k retweets, and 39k likes, fueling even more speculation, especially during Plum’s attendance at the All-Star Weekend in Indianapolis.
It’s important to clarify that the individual pictured with Plum is indeed Waller, a player for the New York Giants, whom she married in March 2023. Meanwhile, Booker, previously linked to Kendall Jenner, is reportedly single.
While both Plum and Waller have maintained a level of privacy regarding their relationship, they didn’t provide much reaction to the baseless rumor.
However, the internet buzzed with excitement. Additionally, a community note has been appended to the tweet to correct Waller’s true identity, adding further clarity to the situation.
