Half of the 16 celebrities starring in Fox’s intense reality boot camp series Special Forces: The World’s Toughest Test have already left the competition. Now there are only 8 left.
One of these eight famous recruits includes former NFL All-Star Danny Amendola. While we wait to see if he has what it takes to reach the end of the challenging series, let’s take a look at his more difficult dating history.

Danny Amendola and his ex-girlfriend Olivia Culpo had a tumultuous relationship.
Danny Amendola’s on-again, off-again relationship with Olivia Culpo — AKA Miss Rhode Island turned Miss USA, Miss Universe turned model turned reality star (Whoa, that was a bite! ) — they were everywhere.
The duo met in 2016 following Olivia’s romantic stints with Nick Jonas and Tim Tebow. “I met her on the corner of Hollywood and Vine. She was just walking down the street and we bumped into each other,” Danny told the Providence Journal. She then became her #InstagramOfficial in February of that year.

Their whirlwind romance ended in March 2018 when Danny signed a contract with the Miami Dolphins. The duo split up after Olivia reportedly wasn’t interested in maintaining a long-distance relationship.
However, their separation was short-lived. The two briefly got back together until Danny was spotted with CBS4 sports reporter Bianca Peters on a Miami beach in June, and Olivia ended things again.
But wait.

Danny and Olivia spent New Year’s Eve together and posted a nearly identical story on Instagram. The power couple is back at it again… until April 2019.
In a scathing Instagram post that has since been deleted, Danny expressed his displeasure about Olivia after she was spotted with Zedd at Coachella. He claimed she just “wanted to be noticed on the internet” and revealed her intimate details about her sex life as a couple.
“Often it was my fault [because], to be honest, I can be an idiot. But! yes! She is fine too! he wrote “And if you disagree with me, I’m a tough MFer to deal with.”

Who are Danny Amendola’s other ex-girlfriends?
In the past, Danny is said to have dated sportscaster and television personality Kay Adams. The duo met when the NFL star was new to England in 2015 when he was playing for the Patriots. They were later spotted together at the 2015 Super Bowl.
In 2019, less than a year after Danny and Bianca Peters were photographed on a Miami beach (they claim they’re just friends, by the way), the former NFL player turned to social media influencers. I hung out on the sand with Emily Tanner, an enthusiast. But the romance seemed short and sweet.
