Fitness Influencer Royce Styles responded after his ex-girlfriend exposed him as Shannon Sharpe‘s alleged boytoy. Royce’s ex claims he was in a secret relationship with the NFL Hall of Famer.
But Royce denied the allegation in a live-stream video. “I’m not gonna talk bad about that community. I’m a not a homophobe or anything like that,” he said. “What you do behind closed doors is between you and whoever you do it with. That being said, I’m straight.”
He continued: “I don’t know how many times I gotta put it out there. I don’t know how many times I have to address this issue. I’m not bisexual, I don’t dibble and dabble in any of that ish you guys wanna try to put that ish out there. I’m a hundred percent straight.”
Royce shut down the rumors after his ex leaked hotel footage that allegedly shows Royce and Shannon with a third man in a hotel room.
During a live-stream, vlogger Tasha K explained that the jilted ex-girlfriend provided video and images that allege to show Royce and Shannon together at a hotel.
The images and video that I saw showed all three men fully clothed. Tasha claims the men took pictures of each other in the hotel room.
Social media users took sides. Most believe something went down between Shannon and Royce because Royce is trying too hard to prove he’s straight. Others begged Royce to stop addressing the rumors.

Usually when a man feels he’s have to keep trying to prove he’s straight and not gay instead of ignoring the negative comments is definitely something wrong internally because as long as you know what and who u are as a person then who gives a fuck!!!!

If you gotta do all this then are you truly straight? I don’t believe it for a second but alright ??????
Especially after Shannon dropped his stylist Hollywood (pictured in the middle) after folks started to find out Hollywoods tea and how he exposed the NFL player many years ago.

@RoyceStyles you no one an explanation. Ignore these fools and let them run with whatever. The more you address it the more you'll have to – STOP ADDRESSING IT…

If he’s 100% straight then I guess Andrew Caldwell is too ?.
It’s one thing to address a rumor that you’re with Shannon Sharpe…. (I get that) But you can also be gay/bi and not have any dealings with that man. Like it’s okay to be gay/bi
