Experts reveal why Adam Levine's flirty DMs are seen as 'cringe'

By now, it will have been difficult to avoid the screenshots of the flirty messages Adam Levine sent to his fans - and the resulting memes. The Maroon 5 frontman is married to model Behati Prinsloo, with whom he has two children, and she is currently pregnant with their third. But, over the last week, five women have come forward accusing 43-year-old Levine of sending them explicit messages in recent years. The first was Instagram model Sumner Stroh, 23, who uploaded a bombshell TikTok video in which she claimed the two had had an affair last year and revealed a slew of flirtatious DMs. Then comedian Maryka and a woman named Alyson Rose shared screenshots of their alleged Instagram conversations with the singer. Levine's former yoga teacher, Alanna Zabel, next accused him of sending a dirty text to her, before fitness influencer Ashley Russell claimed he started messaging her on social media this year.
