Influencer and podcaster Bobbi Althoff has been making waves in the entertainment world with her popular Really Good Podcast, where she interviews A-list celebrities. However, as her fame grew, so did the rumors and drama surrounding her personal life.
One of the biggest controversies linked to Bobbi involved rumors of an alleged affair with rapper Drake, which many speculate may have contributed to the breakdown of her marriage.
The speculation began in August 2023 after Bobbi’s interview with Drake gained massive attention, racking up over 10 million views on YouTube.
Shortly afterward, fans noticed that the interview had mysteriously disappeared from the platform, and both Bobbi and Drake unfollowed each other on social media.
This fueled rumors that something had gone wrong between the two, with fans even suggesting a possible romantic entanglement. The fact that Drake has a history of being linked to women in relationships only added to the suspicion.
The rumors intensified after Bobbi appeared on Dave Portnoy’s BFFs Podcast, where she described an uncomfortable encounter with rapper Lil Yachty, a close friend of Drake’s.
Many speculated that Drake took offense to her comments about his friend, further straining their relationship.
Adding to the drama, reports surfaced that Bobbi was upset after receiving general admission tickets instead of VIP passes for Drake’s concert, despite their previous podcast collaboration.
It was alleged that she confronted Drake about it and even made a sarcastic video at the event, which his team later asked her to delete.
Despite the growing speculation, Bobbi publicly denied the affair rumors. In a private conversation shared on social media, Barstool’s Dave Portnoy asked Bobbi if the rumors about her hooking up with Drake were true.
She responded off the record, confirming that they were not. Still, the internet buzz continued, and the silence from both parties only fueled further speculation.
By February 2024, things took a serious turn when Bobbi’s husband, Cory Althoff, filed for divorce in Los Angeles County.
Court documents revealed that the couple quickly reached a settlement just two weeks after the filing.
Both agreed to cover their own legal fees and waived any claims for spousal support. Bobbi later addressed the divorce on Instagram, expressing her sadness over the end of the marriage but also gratitude for the time they shared.
She emphasized that they remain committed to co-parenting their two daughters and will continue to be friends.
While neither Bobbi nor Cory publicly detailed the reasons for their split, many followers believe the pressure from Bobbi’s sudden rise to fame and the nonstop rumors surrounding the alleged Drake affair might have played a role.
To add more tension, reports emerged that Bobbi was escorted out of a Drake-affiliated party at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, in March 2024. Though Drake wasn’t present, the message was clear—Bobbi was no longer welcome in his circle.
Through it all, Bobbi has remained focused on her career, continuing to work on her podcast and other projects.
Although the real reasons behind her divorce might never be fully revealed, it’s clear that the combination of internet rumors, personal drama, and the challenges of navigating newfound fame created a perfect storm that ultimately impacted her marriage.
