‘Orlando Somewhere Sick’: Fans Gush Over Draya Michele’s Post-Breakup Photos

Draya Michele has been back on the market since the former “Basketball Wives” cast member split from her longtime fiancé, NFL free agent cornerback Orlando Scandrick, last December. However, fans appear to like the model much better single.

The reality star posted a steamy lingerie photo on her Instagram page, and fans seemingly began sweating after seeing just how spicy the model looked in her photo. Michele reclined across a large white bed dripped in a pink lace see-through lingerie set. Her long black hair was flowing down her back, and she captioned the photo by saying,” Birds, Bees, Money Trees, and Honey @savagexfenty #savagexambassador.”

Fans felt like the “Mint Swimwear” founder has been showing more skin on social media since her very public breakup, and they took to Instagram to post their reactions.

“I love single draya always dressing less and showing more 🤙🏽,” said a fan.

A second user said, ” I love single DRAYA 😍🔥.”

“@orlandoscandrick is sick 🤦🏽‍♂️ ,” wrote a third fan.

A fourth fan said, ” I know Orlando somewhere sick 😂😂😂😂😂😂.”

” 🥰Body lookin’ like🥛 ,” commented a fifth.

A sixth fan wrote, ” @orlandoscandrick really missing out 😂.”

This is not the first time the model has posted a thirst trap on her social media pages since she and the former Dallas Cowboys cornerback called their relationship quits. In a now-deleted Instagram Story, the model posted a video of herself posted up in a gym working on her glutes.

Despite going through a breakup, the star appears to be securing her bag. Michele is the newest brand ambassador for Rihanna‘s Savage x Fenty lingerie line. In addition to running her swimwear company “Mint Swim” and her other clothing boutique, “Fine Ass Girls,” the star recently partnered up with the clothing brand Superdown to form her own affordable clothing collection for women.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
