Who is Ben Shelton’s Girlfriend?

Ben Shelton’s girlfriend is Trinity Rodman. While the couple has kept things fairly low-key, and not much is available with authenticity about them in the public domain. However, from TikToks to Instagram posts, fans have had glimpses into their fun and evolving relationship. Trinity comes from sporting royalty, her father is NBA Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman, widely regarded as one of the best rebounding forwards in basketball history.

However, she revealed last year in late December on the podcast “Call Her Daddy” that her relationship with her father is rather turbulent. She said, “He’s not a dad. Maybe by blood, but nothing else.” She explained that he’s a controlling parent, and due to his partying lifestyle, she does not live with him. He once attended one of her Washington Spirit games in 2021 unannounced but didn’t talk to her again until 2023. In reference to this incident, she said she had “lost hope in ever getting him back.”

“He’s not a dad, maybe by blood, but nothing else.”

I’m an academic turned sports writer from Raipur, India, specializing in the NFL, MMA, and tennis at The Playoffs. I previously wrote for Sportskeeda and hold a B.A. and M.A. in History. My journey into sports media began far from the field, rooted in the arts and sciences. Funny enough, I didn’t grow up a sports fan; I used to see it all as just noise. But a fateful writing job introduced me to the world of sports, and what began as a gig quickly became a passion. I understood those voices aren’t noise; they’re emotions of true sports fans, and now I am one of them, writing with the same energy I once questioned.
