Paige Spiranac Finally Opens Up About Her Love Life — What She Admitted Left Everyone Speechless
-- reading | Updated:
She's the most-followed golfer on the planet — and for years she's kept one part of her life completely off camera. This week, that changed.
Paige Spiranac, 33, opened up about her dating life in a rare confession first covered by the New York Post on August 7, 2026.
Paige Spiranac turned a solo round of golf into a full-on confessional: in a new episode of her "Hot Birds" series, filmed August 6, the golf influencer gave fans rare insight into her dating life and dropped personal news she'd never shared publicly before. The internet has been dissecting every word since.
It started as just another round of content. On Thursday, August 6, Spiranac filmed a new installment of her popular "Hot Birds" series — but instead of golf tips, the 33-year-old used the camera to talk about something far more personal: what her love life actually looks like behind the scenes. The New York Post picked it up on August 7, and within days clips of the confession were circulating across X, Instagram and TikTok, pushing her name to the top of Google Trends.
Why This Confession Hit Different
Spiranac built an empire — more than four million followers across platforms — by being unfiltered about golf culture, body shaming and the politics of country clubs. But her romantic life has been the one topic she consistently kept vague since her divorce from Steven Tinoco in 2022. That's exactly why this week's admission caught everyone off guard: she didn't dodge, she detailed.
The timing matters too. Days after the dating talk, Yahoo reported she had "announced personal news in a new confession," and her Instagram bio quietly revealed a bigger move: she's launched her own media business with Pro Shop, with appearances at Riviera alongside Skratch. The influencer isn't just talking anymore — she's building an empire beyond the course.
The Business of Being Paige
From SI Swim model to Happy Gilmore 2 cameo to podcast host, Spiranac has turned rejection from pro golf — she walked away from the tour in 2016 — into a media career bigger than most tour winners ever build. Industry watchers say the media company launch could be her biggest pivot yet, putting her in direct competition with traditional golf media brands.
What It Means for Fans
If you follow golf content, expect more announcements soon: new shows, possible live events, and a lot more of the candor that made her famous. And if you came for the romance details — well, she said enough to keep social media arguing for weeks. The full episode is where the real receipts are.
