Social media has become the ultimate playground for subtle romantic hints, and tennis star Ben Shelton and soccer sensation Trinity Rodman have sparked major dating rumors with their latest TikTok posts.
On March 7, the two athletes posted separate videos using the same song—Glorilla and Jorjiana’s “ILBB2”—but with customized text that seemingly referenced each other in a flirtatious way.
Trinity Rodman, daughter of NBA Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman, posted a clip featuring the song’s lyrics,
“They say shooters shoot Duke Dennis what’s up with you.”
However, when Dennis’ name played, she replaced it with a cryptic, “_ _ _ wassup w you,” while flashing a knowing smile.

“Trinity Rodman for sureeee Ben you can’t hide hah,” while another wrote, “ITS BEN SHELTON OH MY DAYS IMA GO STUPID.”
However, neither athlete has officially confirmed or denied a relationship.
Rodman, 22, was previously linked to professional football player Trinity Benson, with whom she went Instagram official in May 2024.
Meanwhile, Shelton, also 22, has been making headlines in the tennis world, becoming the youngest American male semi-finalist at the US Open since Michael Chang in 1992. His parents, Bryan and Lisa Shelton, were also accomplished tennis players.
Beyond their potential romance, Trinity Rodman has also been in the news for her candid discussion about her complex relationship with her father, Dennis Rodman.
In a December 2024 interview with Call Her Daddy, she opened up about the challenges of growing up with the former NBA star, describing his lifestyle as one filled with parties and chaos.
