Story summary

Gia Duddy, who gained internet fame as the girlfriend of Will Levis during the 2023 NFL Draft, is facing a backlash from Instagram trolls. After Levis' public declaration of his love for mayonnaise and their subsequent breakup, Duddy has turned to social media influencer work but is now dealing with negative comments online. Meanwhile, Brock Purdy, an NFL player, has become known for his down-to-earth style, often seen wearing affordable brands like Kohl's rather than high-end designer labels that other players favor. This approach to fashion contrasts starkly with the opulent appearances of some teammates who carry expensive bags worth up to $20,000.
