What did Stroh and Levine’s alleged messages say?
In her explosive TikTok video, which has been viewed more than 15 million times, Stroh claimed she was “manipulated” by the “Wake Up Call” crooner.
“Essentially, I was having an affair with a man who’s married to a Victoria’s Secret model. At the time, I was young, I was naive and, quite frankly, I feel exploited,” she began. “I wasn’t in ‘the scene’ like I am now, so I was definitely very easily manipulated.”
Stroh continued, “Maroon 5 is practically elevator music at this point, so I’m sure you know who Adam Levine is. But, Adam and I were seeing each other for about a year. After I stopped talking to him over a period of months, this is how he came back into my life.”
She then showed a screenshot of an Instagram DM that Levine allegedly sent her in June.

Has Levine issued a response?
The Maroon 5 singer publicly responded to the claims on his Instagram Story Tuesday.
“I used poor judgment in speaking with anyone other than my wife in ANY kind of flirtatious manner,” he began his statement. “I did not have an affair, nevertheless, I crossed the line during a regrettable period of my life.”
Levine said his interactions “in certain instances” became “inappropriate.”
“I have addressed that and taken proactive steps to remedy this with my family,” he continued.
“My wife and my family is all I care about in this world. To be this naive and stupid enough to risk the only thing that truly matters to me was the greatest mistake I could ever make. I will never make it again. I take full responsibility. We will get through it and we will get through it together.”
Levinehas been marriedto Prinsloo, 34, since July 2014.
The couple share daughtersDusty Rose, 5, and Gio Grace, 4, and confirmed just last week that their third baby is on the way.
