The drama surrounding Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel has hit a fever pitch as more photos and videos of their continue to resurface.
In the clip from Barstool Sports’ version of Family Feud, shared via X by account @CollegeFBPortal on Saturday, May 9, Russini and Vrabel are both seen playing the game, apparently from different locations and joining via Zoom.
“Tell me something a man might do to get a woman in the mood,” the show’s host prompted.
“Kiss her,” Russini replied, adding, “I feel like this is good advice for you guys too.”
The New England Patriots head coach jumped in and sarcastically added, “I’m paying very close attention. I’m so excited.”
Vrabel and Russini, The Athletic’s former senior NFL Insider, have been at the center of controversy since April 7, when Page Six published photos of the pair together at a resort in Arizona.
The two initially played it off as an innocent interaction, despite them appearing to be holding hands and Russini wrapping her arms around Vrabel. But in the time since, additional photos have emerged, showing the pair holding hands, kissing and more, dating back to at least March 2020.
Russini resigned from her job at The Athletic on April 14, while Vrabel spoke publicly about the controversy before the NFL Draft, revealing he would miss the final day of the draft to seek counseling and focus on his family.
Since then, photos have continued to resurface, including one from TMZ Sports on Monday, May 11, which showed Russini with her arm around Vrabel at a party days before the Super Bowl in 2022.
It was not immediately clear when the 33-second Barstool Family Feud clip was recorded, but it comes after another Barstool Family Feud clip surfaced featuring Russini and Vrabel. In that video, shared on Thursday, May 7, and recorded in 2020, Russini is prompted, “What is something you might close your eyes to do?”
“When you have sex with your husband or wife,” she replied.
It was a funny comment, but also a slightly embarrassing moment for Russini, who said she was unaware that the prompt originally came from Family Feud Kids.
Vrabel, who was also on the video via Zoom, shook his head as the others laughed.
Both Russini and Vrabel are married with kids. Russini tied the knot with husband Kevin Goldschmidt in 2020 and they share sons Michael, 4, and Joey, 3. Vrabel has been married to his wife, Jen, since 1999 and they share sons Tyler, 25, and Carter, 24.
