AFL stars address ‘vicious’ teammate affair rumour

Both Rohan and Henderson on Friday slammed the swirling whispers being spread online.

Rohan’s private life has been making headlines in recent years following his messy divorce from ex-wife Amie Rohan, a popular Instagram influencer.

However, the latest gossip online has been instantly dismissed as nothing more than a disgusting act of online slander.

The false claims suggested Rohan had been involved in an affair with Rebecca Klodinsky, Henderson’s wife and high-profile founder of the popular swimwear brand IIXIIST.

The former Sydney Swans star responded to the rumors with a blunt message on social media.

“I can handle rumors about myself, and have been dealt my fair share in the last 12 months. But it’s crossing the line when you start rumors in light of someone’s personal circumstances,” Rohan posted.

“This needs to be called out. No one has any idea what is going on in someone else’s personal life, and people need to be better at being considerate of this. With another lockdown on the horizon, let’s get around each other and support one another. You never know when someone needs your support. Be better.”

Henderson showed support for his teammate in his own social media post hours later.

“Love ya @garyrohan16. I second your comments mate “lets get around each other and support one another”. There is enough going on in his world at the moment,” he wrote.

“Vicious rumors’ that are funny to people don’t help at all. Making things up that are completely false in every way can hurt a lot. Be kind and realize you just never know what each individual is dealing with. You just never know in that moment what that one person has on their plate.”
