Long-time NFL reporter Dianna Russini and her husband, Kevin Goldschmidt, were pictured outside of their New Jersey home, sharing a kiss on Mother’s Day in their first public sighting since the Mike Vrabel issue made headlines for the wrong reasons.
In the pictures exclusively obtained by Page Six, Russini was seen sharing a warm embrace with Goldschmidt while carrying one of their two sons. Goldschmidt, who currently works as a Shake Shack executive, was also seen wearing his wedding band during the moment, sparking online discussion about the couple’s current status.

Several sources close to the family shared that the duo, who have been married since 2020, have been “very resilient as a family.” Reports also noted that “they haven’t been in hiding,” as they have been seen together at their kids’ activities and other family occasions throughout the Vrabel scandal.
Timeline of the Dianna Russini and Mike Vrabel scandal
Russini made headlines after she and the New England Patriots head coach were photographed holding hands while at a resort in Arizona last March. During the trip, they were also seen hanging out on the poolside and eating breakfast on a patio.
When the photo scandal broke, Russini eventually resigned from her role as Senior NFL Insider at The Athletic. At the same time, Vrabel, who is still the head coach of the Patriots, skipped Day 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft to “seek counseling.”

Soon after, photos of Russini and Vrabel sharing a kiss at a dimly lit bar in New York City in 2020 were revealed by Page Six, and one source claimed that the two were “all over each other” at the time.
Furthermore, photos of Russini, who was pregnant in 2021, and Vrabel on a private boat in Putnam County, Tennessee, surfaced last week.
