Who is Cameron Brink's boyfriend, Ben Felter? Taking a glimpse at the Stanford star's personal life
Cameron Brink is what people like to call basketball royalty because of her deep ties with several famous basketball families. The most famous example of this is her relationship with Steph Curry. His mother, Sonya Curry, is Cameron's godmother. On the other hand, Shelly, her mother, is Steph, Sydel and Seth's godmother.
Not only is she connected to the Curry family via their mom, her dad also played with Dell Curry at Virginia Tech. The ties run deep. It's the Curry family that encouraged her to play sports, a notion she didn't entertain, insisting that she was an artist.
At Stanford, she met long-term boyfriend Ben Felter, and they have been fairly open about their relationship, regularly posting him on her Instagram page. Not only is Ben a Stanford student, he's also an elite rower.
