Paige Spiranac's year has been off to a rocky start as she faced the loss of her coveted title as the 'Sexiest Woman Alive', and now the golf influencer finds herself embroiled in rumors surrounding her alleged "toxic" personality. Renowned for her daring fashion choices and a strong passion for golf, Spiranac initially gained fame within the realm of social media.

With a unique blend of bold attire and her love for the sport, Spiranac managed to establish a distinct presence online. However, recent murmurs have surfaced, questioning the nature of her "character". These whispers suggest that her reputation may be at stake, casting doubt on the image she has carefully crafted over the years. As Spiranac navigates this challenging period, it remains to be seen how she will address these allegations and regain the trust of her followers.

'That would be a fight later if that were me'

Paige Spiranac's fortunes have taken a nosedive following the disclosure of a recent interaction between her and Samantha Marks. The incident unfolded during their collaborative video series titled 'Playing a Round,' where Marks openly discussed an unexpected text message she had received from Spiranac.



 

The content of the message veered away from the noteworthy golfing achievement of PGA professional Michael Block, who had garnered significant praise for his impressive 15th-place finish at Oak Hill. Instead, Spiranac's attention in the text exchange seemed to be directed towards something entirely unrelated to his performance on the golf course.



 

Spiranac and Marks exchanged some of their thoughts on Michael Block.

Marks starts by saying, "OMG Block!" To this Spiranac replies, "I'm so happy for him". Marks then comments on Block by saying, "He is so wholesome". To this, Spiranac gives a reply that has many people questioning her personality and labeling her as 'toxic', "Didn't kiss his wife on camera though. That would be a fight later if that were me".

The aftermath of this text exchange has resulted in unexpected backlash, raising concerns about Spiranac's behavior and attitudes. Critics have accused Spiranac of toxic behavior, pointing out that her reaction to the absence of a kiss raises questions about her approach to romantic relationships. Spiranac attempted to clarify her stance, stating, "I'm just saying, if I'm on camera and I'm going up to my man, and I'm like going in for a hug and I'm putting my head up, going for a kiss, and they just deny me a kiss in front of all these people on camera, I would be bringing that up later."



 

Paige Spiranac backed Michael Block amid recent backlash

Paige Spiranac stood up for Michael Block after a tough round at the Charles Schwab Challenge. Spiranac asked fans to understand and be kind to him, praising his efforts. Block, who was under a lot of criticism, felt better when Spiranac supported him. Many fans and other athletes also agreed with her, encouraging the golfing community to show empathy and give Block the space he needed to handle the pressures of his job.



 

Spiranac's message was about being tolerant and compassionate, and how it can help athletes succeed in their sports. However, her latest remarks on Block and his wife have enraged fans.
