Russini has decided to delete her account, and it appears that happened as more bad news broke about her and Vrabel on Thursday.
That bad news was more photos coming from Page Six that clearly showed Russini and Vrabel kissing six years ago in a bar in New York City.
“They were kissing and they were all over each other,” a source told told Page Six. “He had a ring on."
Vrabel was married to his wife Jen at the time, and still is to this today. Russini, on the other hand, was not yet engaged to her husband.
With the firestorm on social media only getting worse on Thursday with the photos coming to life that fully prove Russini's and Vrabel's relationship, her mentions must've been as on fire as ever.
Even if that wasn't the case, there would have been nothing good coming from Russini opening up X anytime soon.
Vrabel has addressed the media twice and while he has not outright said he is guilty of an affair with Russini, everything he has said amounts to an admission of guilt.

"With that being said," Vrabel said. "I've had some difficult conversations with people I care about about — with my family, the organization, the coaches, the players."
However, Vrabel's second presser on Thursday night before the 2026 NFL Draft was short on information and featured a weird response to one question.
"I would never be dismissive," Vrabel said when asked why he initially called the accusations of an affair "laughable."
Vrabel will now navigate the first two days of the draft on Thursday and Friday before he attends counseling on Saturday, which will lead to him missing Day 3.
Where Vrabel goes from there remains to be seen, but he's got a mess to get himself through.
