Over the weekend, the NYDN claimed that Olivia Culpo had dumped her boyfriend of a couple months, Tim Tebow, because he wouldn’t put out. Tebow is famously a virgin and famously waiting until marriage to have sex. Which is his right. And it’s Olivia’s right to want to get her rocks off. This seemed like a perfect case of a blameless breakup, if the breakup really did happen the way the NYDN’s sources claimed. Well, Us Weekly says that’s not exactly the case. Their sources say that Olivia dumped him because she wasn’t looking for a boyfriend (who wouldn’t put out) and even though “they met at church,” she wasn’t interested. What church was that again? Our Lady of Immaculate V-Cards? Quite honestly, Us Weekly’s version of events makes Tim sound really extra.
The real deal. After it was revealed that Olivia Culpo and Tim Tebow had split after a few months of dating, a source close the former Miss Universe reveals exclusively to Us Weekly exactly what went wrong between the two. While it was widely speculated and reported by the New York Daily News that Tebow’s vow to remain a virgin until marriage was the main reason for the breakup, the insider tells Us that timing played another role.
“They met at church,” the Culpo source tells Us of the pair, adding that the stars “hung out a few times” and share mutual friends. In fact, it was a pal who set up the beauty queen, 23, and Heisman winner, 28, as first reported by Us last month.
“Tim’s super into her,” a source told Us at the time. “It’s very new, but he thinks she is a goddess. He’s very attentive and writes her sweet notes all the time.”
Indeed, the Culpo source reiterates to Us that Tebow liked Culpo a lot, but her heart just wasn’t ready for a new romance. “He was very into her,” the source tells Us. “But she just got out of a long-term relationship and was not interested.”
Tim thinks Olivia is a “goddess”? He was “very into her”? But then once he got his shot with her, he didn’t know what to do with her? That’s what it sounds like. Like it was all romance and hearts and love letters and then when he finally got his chance to lock it down, he had no idea what to do with her. I said this yesterday, and I’ll say it again: women getting involved with Tebow know ahead of time that he’s saving sex for marriage. So why do women who want some action even get involved? Like, I have to believe that Olivia thought – at some point – that Tim was so “into her” that she would take his virginity. When she found out he really wasn’t going to give it up, she lost interest. That’s what it seems like.

She’s only 23? I thought she was so much older than that.
My thoughts exactly.
I read on TMZ yesterday that they didn’t even go on a date one-on-one. Weird pairing for sure.
Yeah. But I really dont think they were ever a couple either. He probably held her hand a few times after a group dinner and let it be known that he has snugged a former Miss USA. I think she sees through him, I mean she certainly isnt playing the game.
I read that they went out in a group of friends a couple of times. It seemed to me that they never dated at all and the vitriol I saw yesterday toward this woman was gross. Calling her a skank or wh0re just because she likes sex? Gross. And apparently it wasn’t even true.
And there were just as many people calling him a loser, amongst other things, because he abstains.
I didn’t read one comment where the word loser was said. But Tebow was not being criticized for abstaining from sex. His criticism came from constantly making it public knowledge. Why do we need to know about you wanting to abstain from sex. Do we want to here sexually active people constantly talking about how they just want to have sex all the time? The answer is no.
Something just seems off about Tebow. IMO he’s hiding the real truth. Also if your beliefs are to wait until marriage then stop chasing after women who prefer not to wait until marriage to have sex. Go find a woman who shares your values.
“I didn’t read one comment where the word loser was said.”
It was very much implied.
The criticism of Tim Tebow isn’t because he says he is abstaining, it’s because he’s Tim Tebow. Word on him all the way back starting from his college days (and when chatter is that constant, that’s a huge red flag) has been that the Virgin angle was an image choice. And it worked for a while, until his play couldn’t back it up.
And Alicia, I saw you making an awful lot of assumptions and leaps in logic yesterday. Stop.
From what I read in yesterday’s comment section, more people were calling him gay or naive than were calling her a skank or whore.
I have a real problem believing Aaron Hernandez’s college roommate is naive. And I believe he is a loser for many reasons, none of which have anything to do with his choice to abstain.
I don’t remember seeing one comment calling her a skank or whore.

Do not recall even ONE person calling her a skank or a w.hore. Most people on that thread where questioning Tim Tebow’s sexuality or claiming he is probably one of those virgins who puts it every place but the vag just because he does believe in premarital sex!
Sorry but his body, his right. I can’t stand that myth of guys with self control being implied to be undercover gay, not because there is any problem with being gay but because people believe in the old stereotype that a “real” man bangs everything that moves.
I personally said she is creepy for wanting to “date” men notorious for virginity vows and going to the press when a guy doesn’t put out. Kind of like trying to prove that even these types of guys can’t resist her beauty. LOL.
Same way I call it creepy when men try to collect notches on their belt for targeting female virgins. Because I do remember when I was still a virgin until a more significant relationship and guys around me saw it as a challenge to “deflower” me. Gross IMO.
Sayrah- Maybe you were talking about different sites and not this one? I didn’t think the convo went to her being those things at this site. And I also don’t think people called him a “loser” but instead had a conversation about virginity, religion & the ideas/implications of such. I actually appreciated (some) of the comments made & it made me re-think some of my ideas & solidified others…..I appreciated the conversation and constructive comments.
She apparently suffers from a condition too many other people do: it’ll be different for me syndrome. For examples see most of George Clooney’s exes.
@Eggland. Haha! Perfect.
Why does it matter?! I could name a myriad of things that I’m so much more interested in than Tim Tebow’s sex life, or lack thereof. Breakfast food, for example. Breakfast food is more interesting than Tim Tebow.
That said, we’re tackling sex and religion, so this promises to be another interesting thread, to say the least.
*grabs the popcorn and mojitos*
I’m currently eating a piece of black forest cake that I’ve paid more attention to in the last ten minutes than I have to Tebow for years.
He’s weird. Like, Bradley Cooper weird. It must be his eyes, or mine.
Oohh great analogy!! I haven’t thought of that but you are absolutely right
I am so tired of hearing about Tim Tebow and his religion and his sex life or lack thereof. Get a job, Tim. Marry a Duggar, Tim. Or don’t, Tim. Go away, Tim.
Exactly. Though as annoying as Tebow is, I wouldn’t wish a Duggar on anyone.
Why is he still a thing, anyway?
I have no idea why he is still a thing. Multiple NFL teams gave him chances, which he took while proclaiming himself the greatest of all time, only to fail each time. And the “show” he put on wore thin fast: the pretense that he’s the only player to have religion, the praying on the field, the “miracle baby” and anti-abortion speech in every post-game interview, the crowds of worshipful teenagers. and the “charity” that helps only those needy who fit Tebow’s criteria as appropriately Christian enough.
What is exactly wrong with him? Maybe he is gay or has small penis.
Wow. Wow on so many levels.
Yes, wow.
Maybe he is sincere in his religious beliefs. Maybe sex isn’t important to him. Maybe he is gay. None of that, nor any supposed size of his privates, means that anything is wrong with him. Or that it is anyone’s business but his own.
I may not agree with his religious beliefs and I may find him annoying, but I don’t think that means that there is anything wrong with him. It’s not like he is a “Christian” of the Duggar variety, promoting a cultic and abusive version of a faith.
Well if he is using the “virgin angle” as an image thing as some have suggested then something is indeed wrong with him. I’m not saying any of it is true but I have read plenty of gossip on him that he’s not a virgin or that he prefers guys. So if he’s hiding the truth under the guise of “I’m saving myself for marriage,” then yeah, he has issues.
@V4Real. I’m not saying that he does or does not have issues. I don’t really follow him. My point was more that it sounded like the commentor said that being gay or having a small penis meant that something was wrong with him.
I just don’t like it when homosexuality or physical characteristics are used to insult or denigrate someone.
Maybe I misinterpreted the comment. If I did, I’m sorry.
@michelleb You didn’t interpret it wrong. The comment implies that. If this was a woman I doubt there’d be comments about something being wrong with her. There also wouldn’t any comments implying she’s a lesbian.
I’m not speaking on behalf of the OP but I was just throwing in my opinion that something would be wrong with him if he’s using this as a guise to hide who he really is.
And yes, if this was a woman some commenters will probably say she’s probably a lesbian or into girls. Even commenters on this site have shared stories that their own friends and family members have assumed they were gay because they weren’t married or in a relationship. It’s not hard to believe that someone on a gossip site would assumed the topic of the article is gay even if it was a woman.
@michelleb +1000
I personally dont care one way or the other anymore. Can we just please move on from this “non-story” already. Am i the only one tired of hearing about his abstinence??
This story sounds like a cover-up straight from her team. She doesn’t want everyone to see her as this man-eating heart breaker that left bc she couldn’t take his v-card. Either way, kind of a non-story.
I am really appalled at a lot of these comments. I thought this site was better than that. I thought this group of people were better than that.
I guess you don’t visit this site often.
Actually I visit this site just about everyday and that’s why I’m shocked at these comments. A lot of them are just plain mean.
I come here often, this blog is a lot better than most out there, but the comments on tim tebow story are mean and judgemental. I was so disappointed yesterday.
There’s an extreme on both sides. Depends on the threads and commentors. Some threads really awful and some commentors awful.
The worse ones are never called out though because the majority all agree to be awful.
I am just wondering. First he took over Camilla Belle when she broke up with Joe Jonas. Then he took over Olivia Culpo when she broke up with Nick. Is thee something here that we are missing?
