Nick Bosa’s Shocking Age Gap with Model Girlfriend Ella Ailiff Is Going Viral

This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.

Nick Bosa is no longer a single man. The San Francisco 49ers defensive end launched his new relationship with model Ella Ailiff.

Prior to this relationship, he was rumored to be dating rising country singer Megan Moroney. Moroney shut down the talk last month in an interview with PEOPLE. “I’m not dating right now at all. I’m too busy,” she said.

At the beginning of December, Bosa landed in a TikTok video. He was enjoying an espresso with model Ella Ailiff sitting on his lap. Ailiff, the founder of a matcha brand, is the only account Bosa follows on TikTok.

What was a cute moment has turned into something vastly different days later.

Social Media Points Out The Differences In Age Between Nick Bosa & Ella Ailiff

Ella Ailiff is a name NFL fans are talking about. However, it has little to do with her looks and more to do with her age.

Nick Bosa appeared with her in a recent TikTok, and that clip answered months of speculation. Ailiff is a model and TikTok creator who’s built a decent online following. She’s also just 20 years old.

That means her relationship with 28-year-old Nick Bosa is causing some controversy. It has to do with the eight-year age gap. A post on X pointed out the age gap. It has been seen by more than 1.8 million social media users.

Nick Bosa is 28 years old.

Model Ella Ailiff is reportedly 20 years old.

Bosa is hardly the only person catching backlash for a relationship similar to his. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt is 27 and married to 59-year-old Nicholas Riccio.

Barstool CEO Dave Portnoy also has to deal with it. Last month, he was trolled over his 22-year-old age gap with his girlfriend.

In the meantime, Bosa has been out for the season after tearing his right ACL during a Week 3 game against the Arizona Cardinals.
