Israel Adesanya has taken to Instagram to direct a series of scathing posts towards his former girlfriend, Charlotte Powdrell.
The two-time middleweight champion surprised the world with his second-round knockout of Alex Pereira at UFC 287 earlier this month. However, he didn’t stop there and went on to launch multiple vitriolic messages aimed at Powdrell.
The baffling aspect of it is the fact that Powdrell and Adesanya were linked in 2021 so his choice to air dirty laundry is especially baffling.
In his posts, Adesanya accused Powdrell of selling information about him and declared that he no longer cares about her. He even threatened legal action against her and posted, “Me loading up receipts…. Y’all shoulda left me the f*ck alone! I got time and I got lawyer money”. His behavior on social media was a stark departure from his usual practice of keeping his personal life private.
The cause of the outburst is unknown, but it is clear that it was more than a typical lover’s spat.
Adesanya has since been linked with Kim Kardashian lookalike Shana Evers. His relationship with Evers is also full of drama.
Shana Evers is a renowned Australian model and the younger sister of DJ, model, and TV personality Brooke Evers. The Evers family is often referred to as the “Gold Coast Kardashians” because of their links to Kim Kardashian and their similar lifestyles. With an estimated net worth of $5 million, Evers is one of the wealthiest models and has a significant following on social media.
Evers gained popularity for two reasons: her striking resemblance to Kim Kardashian and her marriage to the rapper Fortafy.
Evers and Fortafy’s daughter, Egypt, became an online sensation in 2015 following a well-known birthday celebration that included presents from the Kardashians. However, Evers and Fortafy later separated, and there have been reports of Fortafy’s ties to organized crime.
Adesanya has been trying to book himself for a bout as early as June and has been in contact with UFC President Dana White.
However, it is yet to be determined who he will face in his potential return to the Octagon.
Considering that Adesanya has practically cleared the 185-pound division of every viable contender, he may look towards achieving ‘champ-champ’ status by attempting to claim the 205-pound crown.
Jamahal Hill, the light heavyweight champion, could be a potential opponent for Adesanya. Hill is currently waiting for former titleholder Jiri Prochazka to recover from a shoulder injury.
