1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Nov 2

Summary

  • Cunningham said security will begin traveling with her "next week, 24/7," marking a new step after she recently spoke publicly about stalker concerns.
  • On her podcast, she said the attention is now "everywhere" rather than limited to basketball settings, and that managing boundaries has become the biggest adjustment in daily life.
  • Her comments follow an earlier claim on Theo Von’s podcast that the FBI was watching about 20 people over concerns involving her, though that estimate and the agency’s role were not independently verified.
  • In June, Indiana prosecutors charged Kevin Singh with felony stalking and intimidation and misdemeanor harassment in a case involving Cunningham; court documents said the unwanted contact left her having nightmares and staying home more often.
