Dianna Russini and her husband, Kevin Goldschmidt<\/a>, were photographed kissing on Mother\u2019s Day in their first public sighting since her scandal with Mike Vrabel.<\/p>\n

Pictures exclusively obtained by Page Six show the former ESPN reporter and the Shake Shack executive warmly embracing each other outside their New Jersey home on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Russini, who said \u201cI do\u201d to Goldschmidt in 2020, appeared to be carrying the youngest of their two sons on her hip.<\/p>\n

The cozy encounter took place outside their New Jersey home, with Russini carrying their youngest child on her hip. Page Six<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople in the community have said they\u2019ve been very resilient as a family,\u201d a source told Page Six of the married duo, who have been seen together at activities for their kids and other family occasions throughout the scandal.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey haven\u2019t been in hiding,\u201d the source added.<\/p>\n

The NFL insider, 43, has been constantly in the headlines after she and Vrabel, 50, were photographed holding hands<\/a> and dancing while at a resort in Arizona in March, per exclusive photos obtained by Page Six.<\/p>\n

During that same trip, they were also seen lounging poolside together and eating breakfast on a patio.<\/p>\n

Russini and Vrabel \u2014 who has been married to his wife<\/a>, Jen, since 1999 \u2014 insisted they were with friends on the trip who weren\u2019t pictured, despite multiple eyewitnesses disputing that claim to Page Six.<\/p>\n

It was the first time the pair has been seen together since Russini\u2019s scandal with Patriots coach Mike Vrabel broke. Page Six<\/p>\n

\u201cThese photos show a completely innocent interaction and any suggestion otherwise is laughable. This doesn\u2019t deserve any further response,\u201d Vrabel told us in a statement at the time.<\/p>\n

Russini added in her own statement, \u201cThe photos don\u2019t represent the group of six people who were hanging out during the day. Like most journalists in the NFL, reporters interact with sources away from stadiums and other venues.\u201d<\/p>\n

The photo scandal led to the journalist stepping down from her role<\/a> as Senior NFL Insider at the Athletic, while Vrabel announced he\u2019d be skipping Day 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft to \u201cseek counseling.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

Soon after, photos of the duo cozying up<\/a> at a dimly lit bar in New York City back in 2020 were revealed by Page Six.<\/p>\n

The duo\u2019s sighting comes after Page Six published photos of Russini and Vrabel at a resort in Arizona together. \u00a9 Page Six<\/p>\n

In the pics (snapped in March), the former ESPN reporter and the New England Patriots head coach were seen hugging and dancing. \u00a9 Page SIx<\/p>\n

An insider said that Russini and Vrabel \u201cwere kissing\u201d and \u201call over each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additionally, photos of Russini and Vrabel spending time on a private boat trip<\/a> in Putnam County, Tennessee, back in 2021 surfaced last week.<\/p>\n

At the time, the sports reporter was visibly pregnant with her first child.<\/p>\n

A source told TMZ that Russini and Vrabel were allegedly the only two people on the boat, and that they were hesitant about photos being taken<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Later on, pics of Vrabel and Russini cozying up at a New York City bar in March 2020 were released. \u00a9 Page Six<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were kissing and they were all over each other,\u201d an eyewitness told Page Six. \u201cHe had a ring on.\u201d \u00a9 Page Six<\/p>\n

Amid the scandal, Vrabel has continued to serve as the Patriots\u2019 head coach. The NFL team released the following statement back in April:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe New England Patriots fully support Mike Vrabel\u2019s decision to prioritize his family first, as well as his own well-being. Mike has been open with us about his commitment to being the best version of himself for his family, this team and our fans, and we respect the steps he is taking to follow through on that commitment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Additionally, Vrabel has received support from several team members, including Christian Gonzalez.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s my coach,\u201d the cornerback told reporters<\/a> during a press conference earlier this month. \u201cThat\u2019s who I go out and play for, and he\u2019s proven what he can do as a coach. That\u2019s my guy, and I\u2019m right behind Vrabes any time of day.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dianna Russini and her husband, Kevin Goldschmidt, were photographed kissing on Mother\u2019s Day in their first public sighting…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":480143,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[268],"tags":[434,2110,198388,18,117,4500,19,17,118482,161231,2530,132],"class_list":{"0":"post-480142","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-celebrities","9":"tag-celebrity-news","10":"tag-dianna-russini","11":"tag-eire","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-exclusive","14":"tag-ie","15":"tag-ireland","16":"tag-mike-vrabel","17":"tag-mothers-day","18":"tag-nfl","19":"tag-sports"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/116559190856258225","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/480142","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=480142"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/480142\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/480143"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=480142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=480142"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=480142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
