Sean Evans, the Youtuber best known for the ‘Hot Ones’ series, is rumoured to be dating model and adult film star Melissa Stratton, according to reports.

Evans and Stratton were pictured together at Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas last weekend, and the latter has posted pictures of the pair spending the weekend together in Vegas. Now TMZ has suggested that the pair are more than just friends.

TMZ backed this claim by citing unnamed sources that Evans and Stratton began DMing each other late last year, before meeting up before the end of 2023. Since then, they have met up in various cities, TMZ added.

Stratton is also known to be a fan of Kansas City Chiefs – he comes from the city – and Evans is said to have invited her to the Super Bowl, where he had a VIP suite. The Chiefs ran out 25-22 winners over the San Fransisco 49s in overtime in Sunday’s match, which is said to the most watched TV event in the US since the Moon landings in 1969.

Over the weekend, Stratton posted numerous pictures of the two together on social media at the Super Bowl – including one in front of the Vince Lombardi trophy – as well as in a nightclub and out shopping ahead of the event. However, while Evans did post on social media over the weekend, his shots did not include her.

Neither Evans nor Stratton have spoken publicly about their rumoured romance, but Yahoo cites – again unnamed – sources saying they are “without a doubt” dating.

Chicago-native Evans is known for his ‘Hot Ones’ series, where he interviews celebrities such as Anna Kendrick as they eat progressively hotter chicken wings. Meanwhile, Stratton bills herself an actor and creator, but is known for modelling and appearing in adult films in the past.
