Tim Tebow was a big name in the college football world at one point. The former Florida Gators quarterback enjoyed all the perks of being a star professional athlete, including dating Miss Universe 2012 Olivia Culpo.

Tebow and Culpo were in a brief relationship in 2015, when the then-28-year-old QB said goodbye to the football field after being released by the Philadelphia Eagles. But the couple allegedly ended things quite awkwardly.


When Tim Tebow and Olivia Culpo parted ways

Tebow, who won two national titles with the Florida Gators in 2006 and 2008, dated Olivia Culpo for two months in 2015. All was going well between the couple, but then Culpo ended things with the football star.

The alleged reason was that he refused to have sex with her at any point during the relationship. A New York Daily News source close to Culpo was quoted as saying at the time:

''She had to break up with him because she just couldn't handle it. He still hits her up, but she just can't deal with the sex thing. He's pretty adamant about it, I guess.''

One of the major reasons behind his decision is that he comes from a devout Christian family and wanted to hold off on sex until he got married.

Tebow married his girlfriend Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters in 2020 and has settled into a life away from the rigors of a football player. He has been a college football analyst with ESPN since 2013 and did his first broadcast during the 2014 BCS national championship game. He also dabbled in the world of baseball as a minor league player.

This $5,000,000-valued former college football star is currently a college football analyst for the SEC Network's "SEC Nation." The show heads to Oxford in Week 10, as the Texas A&M Aggies (5-3, 3-2 SEC) take on the No. 11 Ole Miss Rebels (7-1, 4-1 SEC).
