Influencer Tianna Robillard is getting candid about the painful fallout from her breakup with former fiancé and NFL player Cody Ford. Nearly a year after publicly accusing Ford of cheating, Robillard is opening up about how the alleged betrayal deeply impacted her ability to trust, admitting the experience left emotional scars she still hasn’t fully healed from. While the social media star has since moved on with a new relationship, she says recovering from heartbreak has been anything but easy.
Tianna Robillard Says NFL Star Cody Ford’s Alleged Infidelity Shattered Her Trust
Robillard recently reflected on the emotional aftermath of her breakup with Ford, claiming the experience left her struggling to trust others. The influencer and Ford met through mutual friends in February 2022 before getting engaged in April 2024. However, their relationship came to a sudden end just months later when Robillard announced their split in a TikTok video and later accused the NFL player of cheating.
Speaking to the Daily Mail, Robillard admitted the alleged betrayal had lasting effects on her emotional well-being. “I really struggled learning to trust again,” she said. “It’s really difficult once you learn that things can happen like that and that people are capable of things that you didn’t think before.”
According to Robillard, the emotional toll felt overwhelming. “Getting out of that state of almost like… [you think], it’s gonna happen to me again,” she said. “No matter how amazing someone is, it’s gonna happen again. It’s like PTSD, kind of.”
Robillard Says Healing Has Been A Long Process
Though Robillard has since entered a new relationship, she admitted moving forward emotionally took serious work. The influencer said healing from the alleged betrayal has been ongoing and not something she has completely overcome. “I’ve really had to do a lot of healing to get out of the PTSD of it all, and it’s still not all the way gone,” Robillard admitted.
She also explained how difficult it became to trust others after allegedly being blindsided. “I did not think people were capable of things like that, so I was just like, if [Ford] can do it, if someone that I loved and trusted and chose to marry could do that to me, anybody could,” she said.
“Relearning that that’s actually not true and that everyone’s different and that there are good people out there, and that not every guy is gonna treat you like that,” she continued. “That’s been the biggest learning curve for me and just trusting again.”
Ford has not publicly addressed the cheating allegations.
Tianna Robillard Previously Claimed She Found ‘Receipts’
Shortly after the split, Robillard spoke publicly about the breakup during an appearance on Alix Earle’s “Hot Mess” podcast. At the time, she claimed things shifted dramatically just weeks after Ford proposed. “It took a turn, drastically,” Robillard said.
She alleged tension began after a major work opportunity in Paris, claiming Ford did not seem supportive of her career growth. “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,” she said.
Robillard later claimed a fan urged her to check her Instagram messages, where she allegedly uncovered troubling information. “I looked through my messages and I found what I needed … he was giving people the address to our Cincinnati home while he was over there for OTAs,” she claimed. “So I dug more into it and got all the receipts and all the info I needed.”
Robillard Says Her ‘World Was Fake’
The influencer admitted the allegations left her questioning everything about the relationship. At the time, Robillard said another woman allegedly shared screenshots of interactions with Ford.
“It was like, ‘Who are you? You got down on one knee a month before this,’” Robillard said. “I felt like my world was fake.”
The breakup quickly became a major topic online, especially after Robillard opened up publicly about what she claimed happened behind the scenes.
Tianna Robillard Has Since Found Love Again
Despite the heartbreak, Robillard says she’s now in a much healthier place romantically. The influencer began dating musician and content creator Adrian Nuñez after the pair met during Fashion Week in New York City in September 2024. The two officially started dating that December.
Speaking about her current relationship, Robillard praised Nuñez’s character and the stability he brings to her life. “[I chose] someone with integrity and characteristics that I can lean on when s**t hits the fan.” “[He’s] a good person with self-worth and integrity. Finding someone who treats themselves with love and respect has been the biggest thing.”
