Bobbi Althoff Faces Divorce After Drake Interview Controversy. Podcaster and influencer Bobbi Althoff is going through a divorce from her husband Cory Althoff, a tech executive, after four years of marriage. The news comes after Bobbi was involved in a scandal with rapper Drake, who appeared on her podcast “The Really Good Podcast” in July 2023.
The Podcast
Bobbi Althoff, known for her awkward and dry celebrity interviews, invited Drake to be a guest on her podcast, which she recorded in a hotel bed in Memphis. The podcast, posted on her X (formerly Twitter) account, went viral and received over 9 million views.
In the podcast, Bobbi asked Drake various questions, such as his favorite color, favorite food, and favorite movie, while showing little interest or enthusiasm. She also joked about missing her youngest daughter’s first birthday to fly to Memphis to accommodate Drake’s tour schedule.
The Rumors
Shortly after the podcast, rumors started circulating that Bobbi and Drake had a romantic fling, leading to a falling out between them. Some fans noticed that Bobbi had deleted the podcast from all platforms and that she and Drake had unfollowed each other on social media. Some also speculated that Bobbi’s husband Cory had found out about the affair and was angry with her. Bobbi Althoff Faces Divorce After Drake Interview Controversy.
