The Messy, Shady Love Triangle Between Deion Sanders, Karrueche Tran & Tracey Edmonds
Hold onto your wigs, ladies — this one’s got it all: A Hollywood It-girl, a college football coach turned celebrity motivator, and a stunning fiancée turned scorned ex. Yes, we’re talking about Karrueche Tran, Deion Sanders, and the woman who had his back before anyone else — Tracey Edmonds.
Let’s rewind. If you’ve been keeping up with Media Take Out, you already know we were the first to spill the tea that Deion, 57, is dating Karrueche, 36. At first, it seemed like an unexpected yet cute couple alert. But girl, the backstory is messier than a Real Housewives reunion fight.
Here’s the kicker: Karrueche wasn’t just some random Hollywood starlet Deion slid into the DMs of. Nope — she was allegedly introduced to Deion by his then-fiancée Tracey Edmonds. Yep, the same Tracey who was by his side for nearly a decade, through thick, thin, and career lulls.
And let’s be clear — Tracey wasn’t just a trophy fiancée. She held Deion down. When he was out of the spotlight and struggling, she supported him emotionally and professionally. Word is, she helped him revamp his brand, polish his public image, and even helped guide him toward his now wildly successful coaching gig at the University of Colorado.
And how does Deion repay her? Allegedly by leaving her in the dust and leveling up with her industry friend Karrueche.
Let that sink in.
According to insiders, the first sparks between Karrueche and Deion flew while she was working on one of Tracey’s TV projects. Tracey — a respected producer in her own right — frequently invited Deion to her Hollywood events. Karrueche, who was part of Tracey’s network, reportedly crossed paths with the NFL legend during one of these industry functions. Cute? Maybe. Shady? Absolutely.
Now, Tracey may have caught wind of the chemistry between the two — and not just through blogs. During a podcast segment, Claudia Jordan (yes, that Claudia) said she’s close with Tracey and revealed some bombshell tea. Claudia claims that Tracey confronted Karrueche at a party about the dating rumors — the same rumors Media Take Out had already reported — and Karrueche allegedly denied it. But fast-forward to now and… there’s Karrueche, standing by Deion’s side during his recent surgery, looking like the new boo.
So what’s Tracey doing now, you ask? Is she sitting at home crying into a pint of Haagen-Dazs? Absolutely not. Sis is thriving. Word is she packed her bags and dipped to a stunning island paradise, where she’s living her best soft life — producing Hollywood projects, soaking in the sun, and serving “unbothered” energy in every Instagram pic.
And look, love is complicated — we get it. But if this is all true? It’s giving betrayal. It’s giving “how dare you date my ex after I introduced you”. It’s giving “girl code violation of the highest degree.”
As for Karrueche and Deion? Time will tell if this relationship goes the distance, or if karma’s just waiting to make her grand entrance. Either way, you already know we’ll be watching — and sipping our tea.
Stay tuned, besties. This saga’s far from over.
