Bengals G Cody Ford's ex-fiancée accuses NFL star of cheating on her
Almost a month after announcing her breakup with ex-fiancé Cody Ford in June 2024, TikTok influencer Tianna Robillard spoke up about the real reason for leaving the Bengals offensive guard. She alleged being cheated on by her ex-fiancé while the two were in a long-distance relationship.
On Thursday, Robillard appeared on Alix Earle's Hot Mess podcast. During the podcast, Robillard alleged how a fan informed her that Cody Ford was cheating on her while she was away for work in Paris. In fact, Ford allegedly wasn't in favor of Robillard going to Paris.
"I felt like I don't feel supported, I don't feel like my wins are being celebrated, and [my] career growth was becoming an issue between us,” Robillard said. (Timestamp: 18:37)
When Tianna returned from Paris, she allegedly received an "unsettling" text from a fan who insisted the influencer check her Instagram DMs. At the time, the influencer was reportedly alone at the couple's Dallas home while Ford attended Bengals training camp.
"I looked through my messages and I find what I needed ... he was giving people the address to our Cincinnati home while he was over there for OTAs. We were doing long distance for a couple of months, but this was happening [two days] before he came home. So, I dug more into it and got all the receipts and all the info I needed," Tianna Robillard said. (Timestamp: 22:30)
"The [things] that were spoken [in the screenshots] I had never heard out of his mouth, I had never received myself. It was like, 'Who are you? You got down on one knee a month before this.' I felt like my world was fake," Robillard added.
Robillard allegedly spoke to her therapist, and the two called up the offensive guard and confronted him. Robillard broke up with Ford and left their Dallas home.
"[He] gets to do that and [continue] living his life ... now I'm fighting for a roof over my head, I left the dogs, I left the ring, and I have to rebuild everything. It's really a f**ked up situation ... I gave you everything, and it's still not enough," Robillard said. (Timestamp: 28:23)
Tianna Robillard announced breakup with Cody Ford with an emotional TikTok
Tianna Robillard and Cody Ford parted ways three months after exchanging rings in April. The confirmation came from Robillard, who made an emotional TikTok video announcing her breakup with the offensive guard.
"You want answers, I know. I don't really know like what to say, really. But it's true. It's over, and it's never going to be back together, that's for damn sure. I love him ... I always will. But some things are unrecoverable, and I just pray for healing and for him to be okay at the end of the day," Robillard said in the clip.
Cody Ford hasn't made any official statement, neither in regards to the breakup nor the cheating accusations made by ex-fiancée. With the NFL offseason almost coming to an end, Ford would not want to drag the controversy into the regular season.
