Travis Hunter and Leanna Lenee are nothing short of an inspiring couple sharing their journey with their fans. From recounting how they first met in high school to getting engaged early this year, there is a relationship that many would like to emulate. But even then, many would find faults.
Hunter recently celebrated his 21st birthday with his Lenee, who has been by his side through the highs and lows.

While this was an adorable gesture of love, some couldn’t help but diss the gesture that Lenee had engaged in.

A recent post by a sports news outlet showed Hunter standing alongside his new birthday car with the caption, “After Travis bought his fiancée a car, she returned the favor on his 21st birthday.” But the post didn’t sit well with some naysayers who went on to criticize Leanna for doing the “bare minimum” and that Travis Hunter “bought himself a car.” The two-way star seemed to have taken offense at the seemingly sexist remarks and came to Leanna’s defense and commented, “Y’all just love to hate lol if this came out my pocket I wouldn’t have posted it.”
