Ready for a bombshell, Bros? Blake Bortles allegedly broke up with Lindsey Duke. The sports blogosphere is swirling with a report from The Daily Mail that Blake Bortles, the rookie quarterback for the Jacksonville Jaguars and a former stud standout at UCF, broke up with his Internet-famous girlfriend, Lindsey Duke. If you’re a frequent BroBible reader, you’re probably quite familiar with Lindsey Duke from our previous coverage of her. The Daily Mail tries to frame it like the reason their relationship crumbled is because Bortles was jealous that his girlfriend was more popular than him. The two were high school sweethearts Via The Daily Mail:
Blake Bortles, a rookie quarterback for the Jacksonville Jaguars, ended things with his long-time girlfriend Lindsey Duke a few months ago after six million people Googled her during the combine compared to only 225,000 searches for him.
…‘Apparently she is more of a household name than I am and there’s nothing I can really do about that,’ said Bortles of Duke when they were still a hot item.
And then there are these tweets from Busted Coverage, who broke the story:
