Katherine Webb, Boyfriend AJ McCarron Call it Quits
As Alabama and quarterback AJ McCarron continue their college football dominance, they will have to do it with one less fan after news revealed that McCarron and girlfriend Katherine Webb have broken up.
"Yes [they've broken up]," Katherine's mother, Leslie Webb, told Radar Online. "Katherine's just trying to stay real busy."
Webb, 23-year-old Miss Alabama USA 2012, gained popularity when sports announcers complimented her appearance during the college football championship game last week.
Webb, who met her boyfriend through Twitter, said that while she has been presented with a multitude of opportunities, McCarron will remain her priority.
"I've had opportunities to do hosting and some television shows. But right now I'm just going along for the ride and seeing what happens," she told SI after the nationally televised compliment. "But at the end of the day, my relationship with AJ is what's important and if this stuff is going to hinder the relationship, then I don't have a problem saying no to certain things, especially if they'd embarrass me or his family."
Still, the Christian beauty queen recognizes that she was been blessed given her quick rise to fame.
"I was completely dumbfounded. It was so shocking to me because literally overnight I go from being AJ's girlfriend and going to support him in the championship game to being on every major media news outlet," Webb previously told SI.
"It's just so surprising to me. I don't know what God has planned, but obviously He's working on something. When Sports Illustrated called it just became even more real that this is happening. Every single model wants to be in Sports Illustrated, and I feel extremely blessed to have that opportunity."
