The Athletic reporter Dianna Russini and New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel are facing a ton of backlash on social media this Tuesday.

"A Page Six spy tells us that the pair — both married to other people — had breakfast on the patio of the hotel restaurant around 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, March 28, before spending a leisurely hour or so together at the pool and lounging side-by-side in a hot tub," their report states. "Our spy spotted Vrabel and Russini again that evening on the private rooftop of one of the hotel’s bungalows, which feature glass walls offering panoramic views of the state’s famed Red Rock formations."
Russini, who previously worked for ESPN, was also reportedly seen dancing with Vrabel.
