Adam Levine has spoken out following allegations that he had an affair with model Sumner Stroh. The 43-year-old Maroon 5 frontman was accused of "having an affair" by 23-year-old Stroh in a TikTok post. In her video, she says: "I was having an affair with a man who's married to a Victoria's Secret model." Levine is currently married to his wife of eight years, Behati Prinsloo, who is also currently expecting his third child. Stroh continued: "At the time, I was young, I was naive, and, I mean, quite frankly, I feel exploited. I wasn’t in ‘the scene’ like I am now, so I was definitely very easily manipulated." Watch Stroh's initial video below: [[tiktokwidget||https://www.tiktok.com/@sumnerstroh/video/7145094095915240750]] In the video, Stroh shared messages she had allegedly received from the 'She Will Be Loved' singer, one of which reads: "It is truly unreal how f***ing hot you are." After claiming to have been in a relationship with Levine for a year, she then says they lost contact for several months, before he allegedly sent her a message saying that he wants to name his unborn child 'Sumner'. <img class="size-large wp-image-1263169888" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/09/2H69HMB-768x1024.jpg" alt="" width="768" height="1024" />[[imagecaption|| Prinsloo and Levine in 2021.

I was completely manipulated. I wanted to handle this privately. I never wanted to come forward because obviously, I know the implications of doing what I do — making the money the way I do, being an Instagram model... I know the stereotypes." Now, Levine has responded to the allegations in his Instagram Stories, saying: "A lot is being said about me right now and I want to clear the air." The frontman continued: "I used poor judgement in speaking with anyone other than my wife in ANY kind of flirtatious manner. I did not have an affair, nevertheless, I crossed the line during a regrettable period in my life." <img class="size-large wp-image-1263169884" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/09/Screenshot-2022-09-21-at-10.13.17-571x1024.jpg" alt="" width="571" height="1024" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / Adam Levine]] Levine added that "in certain instances" his behavior "became inappropriate", but that he has "addressed that" and "taken proactive steps to remedy this with [his] family". The 'Sugar' singer 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." <img class="size-large wp-image-1263169885" src="https://img.vt.co/2022/09/Screenshot-2022-09-21-at-10.13.34-578x1024.jpg" alt="" width="578" height="1024" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / Sumner Stroh]] Less than an hour later, Stroh appeared to respond to Levine's comments with an Instagram Story of her own, in which she wrote: "Someone get this man a dictionary." <h6>Featured image credit: Image Press Agency / Alamy</h6>
