Bronny James, the eldest son of LeBron James and NBA prospect, has been subjected to scrutiny for allegedly dating a white girl.
Wives And Girlfriends of high-profile athletes (WAGs) Unfiltered's Instagram account posted a series of photos showing Bronny with his alleged girlfriend, Peyton Gelfuso. Additionally, Gelfuso has allegedly been spotted at several of his games and on dates with Bronny.
Bronny and LeBron James fans did not seem happy about the rumor and took to Instagram to know their opinions.
"I guess jr don't like melanin," one comment read.
"Dang he with a basic white girl," another Instagram account said.
Another fan expressed disappointment, writing, "How can you be raised by a woman as beautiful and BLACK as Savanah and not want a Black woman? Ugh. I would be so disappointed."
However, several commenters were here for the presumed couple, expressing love under the group photo.
"Beautiful and happy looking couple," one commenter said.
"This is an evil world; she's beautiful; drink water and mind your own business people," One comment reads. "Love is love #Bekind find you, somebody, to love, and get happy with your own life, instead of being judgmental to others."
"It's sad to see Black women under here upset about a child's decision on who he dates. Lmaoo y'all are giving the girls pressed, and it's absolutely embarrassing," one clapped back at the critics.
The two had not confirmed or denied their relationship.
Bronny was linked to another young woman by the same name in a viral TikTok video from 2020.
In Sept. 2020, a video of Bronny and a girl went viral on TikTok, generating rumors about his personal life. The girl in the video with Bronny is Peyton Sama, a member of a TikTok collective called, The Vault House. Peyton's TikTok boasts over 1.6 million followers and over 470,000 followers on Instagram.

No videos of Bronny and Sama have been released since then, and there is no way of telling if the two have ever dated or are in contact with each other.
