The Indiana Pacers may not be making back-page headlines every week, but that hasn’t stopped fans from getting nosey about what their players are up to off the court. One name that keeps popping up? Thomas Bryant. You know, the high-energy big man with enough bounce to play backup minutes and bring vibes to the bench. While his role on the floor might fluctuate, his relationship status has been a little more… stable. Or so we thought.

Let’s get into it, just a casual deep dive into what we know (and what we definitely don’t) about Bryant’s supposed girlfriend.

Who is Thomas Bryant’s girlfriend? Pacers star’s relationship status revealed

As of late 2023, Thomas Bryant had been in a long-term relationship with Alli Speidel. No drama, no Instagram unfollow scandals, no cryptic song lyrics in captions—just a good old-fashioned low-key relationship that somehow survived the NBA spotlight. But we have had no updates since, making Bryant’s status unclear.

Speidel was born on October 20, 1997, in Indiana—yes, the same Hoosier State where Thomas Bryant made a name for himself at Indiana University. Coincidence? Probably not. NBA players love a hometown storyline, and this one runs all the way back to their college days.

What does Alli Speidel do for a living?

Here’s where things get fuzzy. Alli Speidel doesn’t have a public LinkedIn, flexing her resume. No TikTok content house, no fitness app, no sponsored “rise and grind” content. What we do know is mostly guesswork.

Some sources suggest she’s a fitness enthusiast who enjoys helping others stay in shape. A trainer? A wellness coach? Just someone who swears by her squat routine? It’s unclear. Others toss around the label “marketing specialist,” but again—no verified professional profile to back that up.

And then there’s the vague title of “philanthropist,” which, let’s be honest, often gets tossed around when no one really knows what someone does, but they seem like a good person. At the end of the day, her online remains unconfirmed, which makes verifying anything next to impossible.

How did Thomas Bryant and Alli Speidel meet?

Bryant and Speidel’s story begins in Bloomington, Indiana. Both were students at IU, where Bryant was throwing down dunks at Assembly Hall and Speidel was navigating campus life like the rest of us—minus the ESPN highlights.

Their “hard launch” came in November 2018 via a social media post, and anniversary content followed, but don’t bother scrolling for it now—Speidel’s social media, as it was known, has since disappeared from the internet.

By the way, the plot thickens.

Reports claim that Bryant popped the question in Paris back in 2019. Très romantic, right? Some even say Speidel announced the engagement on Instagram. But—and this is a big one—there are no receipts. No screenshots, no archived posts, no confirmed sources. And with Speidel’s entire online footprint now scrubbed, it’s all firmly in rumor territory. So unless TMZ uncovers a dusty engagement ring pic, this one stays unconfirmed.

Bryant has since opted for privacy, and so has Speidel. If they have broken up, it’s hushed, if they are together, it is still the same.
