Nobody will ever truly replace Kate Upton, but Xandra Pohl is making a strong case for that feat in the future.

Rising star Xandra Pohl, a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model who has been dubbed “next Kate Upton,” is going incredibly viral these days after it was revealed that she is dating former NFL wide receiver Danny Amendola.

Danny Amendola is 38-years-old while Pohl is just 23. She was just 9-years-old when Amendola officially began his career, which started in 2009 as a member of the then-St. Louis Rams.

Pohl dating the former NFL star came to light when Barstool Sports owner Dave Portnoy mentioned it.

“So Xandra is dating Danny Amendola,” Dave Portnoy said on his “BFFs” podcast.

Portnoy then mentioned seeing them together at Brady’s Patriots Hall of Fame induction.

“I don’t know if dating is the right word. Well, I was there [at Brady’s Patriots Hall of Fame induction]. They’re together,” Portnoy said. “Yeah, we saw it in action.

“They walked in … let me put it this way. Let me rephrase. Xandra was Danny Amendola’s date for this thing. What they’re doing beyond that — but he definitely took her as his date.”

Portnoy added that the couple was also spotted with Rob Gronkowski and his girlfriend, fellow SI Swimsuit model Camille Kostek, saying, “Although that’s like in-your-face dating… She was sitting with [Rob] Gronkowski and [his girlfriend] Camille [Kostek].”

Before he started dating Xandra Pohl, Danny Amendola had a whirlwind relationship with Olivia Culpo that ended badly.

Amendola took aim at her in an Instagram rant where he slammed her as “f—ed up” and blamed her very public “lifestyle” for their split, per PEOPLE.

“I believe there should be a boundary btw private life and social media. Olivia believes in fishbowl lifestyle. This fundamental difference was huge in our relationship,” Amendola began.

“If you’re my real friend, you know I’m private. My mother, brother, father and nephew are closest to me in this world and you don’t see one picture of them and that’s for their protection from those who criticize and judge. I believe in nailing picture frames on the inside of my house to remind the ones I love that I care.”

“Olivia chooses and wants to be noticed on the internet and in Hollywood to make money. Which was hard for me to understand but quickly had to learn. Whereas [sic] the cost of fame in this world doesn’t appeal to me. I play ball for one reason, and that’s RESPECT,” Amendola continued.

“The only reason I’m writing this post is because, whether I like it or not, we lived in the public eye. Some of it is amazing! I’ve met some of the nicest people from all over the world, and Olivia and I had some amazing times together… just like any other loving relationships we fought.”

He also alleged that Culpo would get “so mad” at him for not sharing photos of her on Instagram, but to him that was “fake, sometimes toxic, but sometimes beautiful.”

Culpo has since moved on to be engaged to marry Christian McCaffrey.
