Justin Verlander and Kate Upton have a very public relationship and now the superstar couple has some private photos out there as well, as they were part of a trove of celebrity nude photos and videos that were hacked and released on the internet and on Reddit, with Jennifer Lawrence, Victoria Justice, Ariana Grande and Brie Larson also in the package.
According to People.com, Gawker and other news outlets, hundreds of pictures were released on the internet that were reportedly hacked from the cloud and from the celebrities phones. Upton and Verlander were featured in many of the photos and some of them included very private shots, including ones of the couple in a bathroom together standing naked and smiling together. There are also nude pictures of Upton on her own as well as photos of numerous other ladies.
Upton and Verlander were part of a major photo dump and some of those photos can be found on Reddit and other websites. Some other celebs include Ariana Grande, Victoria Justice, Brie Larson, Jennifer Lawrence, Kaley Cuoco, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Teresa Palmer and others. The 22 year old Upton and Verlander have not commented about the situation, but their relationship has been known for quite some time.The two were interacting at Yankee Stadium when the Tigers played there when Upton was seated behind the visitors bench and now the couple have a bit of a scandal to deal with.
Verlander and the Tigers are in a tigh AL Central and wild card race and he is not having his best season and has been struggling a bit. The relationship likely has nothing to do with that, but as September gets here, this is just another distraction to deal with. Upton has been in the spotlight for a few years now and she has been seen in pictures with all types of outfits for her modeling career, so the leak isn't bad in that sense, although it's terrible to have one's privacy violated like that. As Andrew Brandt says, there will be lawyers and it's likely many of the photos will be taken down after they were obtained illegally. The internet can be a cruel place and now many of these celebrities have to deal with that firsthand and they will try and get those taken down once they get a hold of who let them out.
Gawker has been reporting on the lead up to the story and the hacker allegedly has more videos. Some of the photos have been confirmed as fake, but just as many have been confirmed as real and now those celebs will have to deal with being exposed.
