It’s not the first timeKardashian has been linked to a football player.
In 2007, she began dating the then-New Orleans Saints starReggie Bush. Their relationship played out in front of the cameras on the first season ofKeeping Up with the Kardashians. They eventually broke up in 2010 due to the busy demands of their respective careers.
In 2010, Bush reflected on his time with Kardashian, telling theRachael Rayon her talk show that the media attention that came with the territory was rough on him. “I play football, and most football players are camera shy,” he said at the time. “We just want to be left alone, we just want to stick to what we do.” He added that while he doesn’t love the cameras, “I do it because it’s important to [Kim].”
