AceShowbiz - Joe Burrow's home was broken into on December 9 while he was away for a game in Texas. According to police reports, Olivia Ponton, an influencer and model, called 911 to report the incident. Ponton, who was listed as an employee of Burrow, arrived at the property and observed a shattered bedroom window and ransacked room.
In a statement on Wednesday, December 11, Burrow expressed his dismay over the breach of privacy. He stated, "My privacy has been violated in more ways than one. There's more information out there than I care to share."
Burrow also acknowledged the lack of privacy that comes with his public life, saying, "We live a public life, and one of my least favorite parts of that is the lack of privacy. It's been difficult for me to deal with my entire career."
However, Burrow did not provide any specific updates on the situation. The nature of his relationship with Ponton also remained unclear, as she was listed as an employee in the police report.
Burrow's statement comes after the homes of NFL stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were also burglarized while they were playing in a game. This incident has raised concerns about the safety and privacy of professional athletes.
