Melissa Stratton finds herself questioning the motives of her ex-boyfriend Sean Evans following their recent breakup, which occurred via phone call on Valentine's Day.
The 34-year-old adult entertainment star was taken aback by the sudden end to their relationship, especially considering Evans had publicly showcased her as his 'girlfriend' during their appearance at the Super Bowl just days prior.
According to sources close to Stratton, Evans cited media attention as the reason for the split, leaving her feeling blindsided.
Insiders suggest that Evans may have struggled to fully embrace her profession in the adult entertainment industry.
While Evans is described as a private individual, he reportedly never requested that Melissa keep their relationship under wraps.
Sources reveal that their relationship unfolded publicly, with both parties sharing and posing for photos together.
They were frequently seen in public settings and had begun integrating into each other's social circles, even meeting each other's friends.
Despite the Hot Ones host never giving Stratton the impression that their relationship was merely casual, she now questions his intentions following their breakup on Valentine's Day.
During the Super Bowl weekend, Evans introduced Stratton as his "girlfriend" to various individuals, including Tom Segura and Bert Kriesher at the Por Ousos afterparty following their show.
Additionally, he had extended invitations to public events in Las Vegas prior to the big game.
She later suggested that Evans harbored a dislike for the adult entertainment industry when she publicly criticized him on social media.
In a post shared on Thursday, she appeared to reference their split, advising against pursuing a relationship with someone who holds disdain for certain aspects of a partner's profession.
