Johnny Manziel, the former NFL player, has faced a wave of trolling on social media after posting a strange video of himself and his girlfriend sharing an intimate bath moment.
The ex-Texas A&M football star and Heisman Trophy winner, known for his turbulent past, seems to have found stability in recent months with the daughter of MLB legend Jose Canseco.
This week, however, they took their public display of affection to new heights, sharing a clip of Manziel giving his girlfriend a bath.
In a heartfelt Instagram post celebrating Johnny Manziel’s 32nd birthday, Canseco wrote: “A love like you. My best friend and my forever.
“I’m so proud of the man you’ve grown into. You are the kindest heart I’ve ever met. How’d I get so lucky. Happy birthday my baby.”
Accompanying the caption was a video of Manziel washing his girlfriend’s hair as they sat together, unclothed, in the bath.
The video quickly amassed millions of views on social media, prompting a flood of reactions. Some fans didnโt hold back, with one commenting, “Lowkey ashamed to ever call this guy my goat.”
Another user chimed in, saying, “What the hell is this?”
However, not all reactions were negative. Some fans supported Manziel, interpreting the post as a genuine display of affection: “Completely normal couple behavior. A modern-day love story.”
Manziel and Canseco have been Instagram official since April, and their relationship seems to have only grown stronger since they first revealed it at the Stagecoach music festival.
Canseco, a model, is the daughter of six-time MLB All-Star and two-time World Series champion, Jose Canseco.
Manziel, now a business owner and podcast host, frequently shares stories of his tumultuous past, having cleaned up his act in recent years.
Once one of the most promising college football prospects, Manziel was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in 2014 after leaving Texas A&M. However, his time with the team was marred by off-field controversies. He was released in 2016 following incidents involving domestic violence, alcohol-fueled all-nighters, and dishonesty regarding bye-week parties.
It seems, however, that Manziel has found stability and love with Canseco, whose father, MLB legend Jose Canseco, also faced his own share of off-field struggles.
