“He met his wife Maya at SDSU, so it was meant to be. Didn’t work out for me in that way,” Spiranac shared. Schauffele met his wife, Maya, at SDSU in 2014. The duo married in 2021. Elsewhere in the episode, the social media personality shut down misconceptions about her past relationships with “pro athletes” like Tom Brady and Bryson DeChambeau.
Spiranac confessed that she had “never been on a date with anyone famous.” “I’ve had pro athletes or famous people slide in my DMs. I’ve never dated anyone famous. It’s funny because I’ll see all these headlines,” she continued, adding, “There was one where I shot content with Bryson, and then a headline said I was dating (him). Tom Brady was one of them, which was so crazy.”

“It’s like any time I shoot content with a male celebrity, that’s the headline or all of the comments, which can be really difficult for my job where I work in a male-dominated industry … It’s really frustrating because I’ve never dated anyone famous ever, not even close,” she added.
