'We don’t feel sorry for you.' What every celebrity has said about the Adam Levine cheating scandal.

Just when we thought the dust might be settling on Adam Levine and the multiple cheating allegations levelled at him this week, several celebrities are now sharing their two cents.

In case you missed it, Levine has been accused of having a year-long affair with model Sumner Stroh, who shared the details of the situation on TikTok. After Stroh’s allegations surfaced, many other women came forward with their own stories – which you can catch up on in this article

Now, Levine’s celebrity friends are airing their own reactions, and a few of them differ when it comes to who is to blame in this whole saga.

Listen to Mia, Holly, and Jessie discuss Adam Levine on Mamamia Out Loud. Story continues below.

Emily Ratajkowski was one of the biggest names to comment, defending Stroh and women who find themselves in a similar position in a post on her TikTok.

She stitched the video with another one created by actress Sara Foster, who is seen saying “we don’t feel sorry for you,” in relation to Stroh.

“I don’t understand why we continue to blame women for men’s mistakes,” Ratajkowski said.

“Especially when you’re talking about 20-something-year-old women dealing with men in positions of power.

“The power dynamic is so skewed, it’s ridiculous, it’s predatory, it’s manipulative,” she added.

“Also, if you’re the one in the relationship, you’re the one obligated to be loyal.”

Ratajkowski has some skin in the game, given rumours of infidelity have been tied to her recent separation from her husband Sebastian Bear McClard. But, she took aim at the culture of men like Levine, who she thinks should be held accountable for their actions.

“I think a huge problem in our culture right now is that we just say, ‘oh, men are monsters. They are terrible. They are horrible',” she said in a second video.

“We don’t hold them accountable, and then we blame other women. And we ask women to adjust their behaviour, instead of just saying men need to change their behaviour.

“It’s sexism, it’s classic misogyny.”

Her opinion differed wildly from Foster’s, who used her video to criticise Stroh.

“The power dynamic is so skewed, it’s ridiculous, it’s predatory, it’s manipulative,” Emily Ratjakowski said. Image: Getty. “Cheating is so gross. This woman who chose to make a viral Tik Tok video – putting it out there for the world to see, for a pregnant woman to see, when she could have just messaged her privately,” Foster said.

“We don’t feel sorry for you. You knew this man was married, and you participated.”

Stroh maintains Levine told her he was no longer married while they were together but hadn’t announced his separation in order to avoid a negative public message. She claims she ended things when she realised he wasn’t separating from his wife, Behati Prinsloo.

Karamo Brown, of Queer Eye fame, also shared support for Stroh, reiterating that the power dynamic between herself and Levine couldn’t be ignored.

“This is not anyone’s right or wrong, but we also have to be aware of how power and fame play into a young girl’s self-esteem,” he said on his radio show during the week.

“Especially in our culture where we tell young women to disregard their self-esteem and their proper train of thought when a man who’s more powerful comes to your life because of whatever opportunity that you’re supposed to have or whatever status you’re supposed to have,” he explained.

“At some point… she was young, and she made a messed-up decision. She should have known better, but if she didn’t have the skills and tools to know better, then it’s like, who should have known better?” he asked, giving a defence that likely applies to the four other women who have claimed that Levine was messaging them while married.

While many shared their support and understanding for Stroh, Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause has been vocal in her support for Prinsloo, who has not yet commented on the drama.

The Victoria’s Secret model has been married to Levine for almost a decade. They share two daughters and have a third baby on the way.

“When apologising for cheating publicly I hate the ‘we will get through it together’ part from a man,” Stause tweeted.

“Don’t speak for her. You’ve done enough.”

She was referencing a statement made by Levine during the week addressing the rumours, in which he stated: “I take full responsibility. We will get through it. And we will get through it together.”

The final celebrity to share their stance on the Adam Levine cheating drama is actor Lili Reinhart, who posted one sentence to Twitter saying:

“Really appreciate the movement right now of women who are tired of protecting the reputation of awful men.”
