The Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow and Olivia Holzmacher were together for nearly seven years, yet their breakup came without explanation from either party, leaving fans stunned. Now Holzmacher finally updates her socials, with a cryptic message for the quarterback.
The former couple, who met at Ohio State University in 2017, appeared to be on a promising path, with even an engagement touted to be on the books, before their sudden split left fans speculating.
Holzmacher, typically active on social media, went radio silent after January 2024. For an entire year, she avoided posting anything, fuelling curiosity about her wellbeing, emotional state and exactly what happened in her romance.
However, that changed on Sunday, February 2, when she returned with a mysterious social media post that spread across the internet like wildfire.
“Be intentional, do the hard $hit, && show, don’t tell. I found my deeper well,” Holzmacher wrote, with a series of photos seemingly showcasing her life over the past year that appears to suggest she’s happy enough on her own.

Who is Joe Burrow dating in 2025?
While Holzmacher has been largely private about her post-breakup life, news of Burrow’s new rumored romance surfaced in late 2024 when his Ohio home was broken into while he was away playing against the Dallas Cowboys.
The incident led to an unexpected revelation? The influencer and model Olivia Ponton was the one who contacted police about the break-in. Shortly after, reports emerged Burrow and Ponton had been involved for months, making it clear that he and Holzmacher were no longer together.
Although Ponton was listed in the police report as an employee of Burrow, the woman reportedly told authorities that someone had broken into “my house,” fuelling speculation about the nature of her relationship with the quarterback.
