Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick has never been alone in his pursuit of returning to the pinnacle of American football. Behind the scenes, the 33-year-old has a support system in his long-time girlfriend and fiancee, Nessa Diab. Despite all the troubles that plagued Kaepernick throughout his NFL career, Diab has been his rock of support for him.

He met his fiancee Diab, a former radio jockey and TV presenter, for the first time in 2015. But even six years later, the pair are still going strong through the testing points of his career. Kaepernick and Diab also found success in keeping their romance out of the media headlines for a long time.

According to Diab’s IMDb page, she has made appearances in various TV shows like Girl Code, Ain’t That America, and The Real World Aftershow. The Hot 97 station is one of the best New York City radio stations, and her show, ‘Nessa On Air,’ has been among the top. She also has her own YouTube channel, Nessa On Air, featuring various interviews and live videos about different subjects.

While they have been enjoying each other’s company, some reports suggest Diab has been influencing Kaepernick and his activism. Kaepernick dismisses these reports stating, “The impact is just conversations that we constantly have. This is an open discussion that I have with many people, not just my woman. She is Muslim, her family is Muslim, I have great respect for them. I have great respect for people’s right to believe what they want to believe.”
