Joe Burrow and Sophie Julia Spark Romance Rumors at Super Bowl Party
NFL star Joe Burrow has been spotted with influencer Sophie Julia at a high-profile Super Bowl party in San Francisco. The event, hosted by Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin, also saw the presence of model Olivia Ponton, though she was seen with a friend rather than the quarterback.
Photos from the gathering have sparked fresh speculation about Burrow's personal life, following months of public interest in his relationships.
Burrow and Julia were both guests at Michael Rubin's Fanatics party, though it remains unclear whether they arrived together. Julia later shared a photo of the two on her Instagram, adding to the attention. She works as a hospitality manager for wellness brand Alo Yoga, where she organises private dining events for celebrities.
The quarterback has previously faced questions about his romantic life. He was linked to Sports Illustrated model Olivia Ponton over the past year, but she attended the same party with a different companion. Before that, Burrow was believed to be engaged to Olivia Holzmacher, though neither had posted about each other on social media since January 2024.
In December, Burrow hinted at personal struggles after a loss to the Buffalo Bills. Meanwhile, Julia was previously connected to Romeo Beckham in early 2024.
At the event, Burrow also appeared in promotional videos for Alo Yoga, suggesting a possible brand partnership. However, no official confirmation of a collaboration has been made public since the Super Bowl weekend.
The sighting of Burrow and Julia has renewed discussion about his relationships, though neither has publicly addressed the matter. Julia's social media post and Burrow's appearance in Alo Yoga's content have kept the topic in the spotlight.
For now, no further statements or announcements have been made by either party regarding their connection or any potential brand deal.
