Who is Amanda Balionis’ husband Bryn Renner? Man Caught Amid Rory McIlroy Romance Rumors Is Former NFL Quarterback Turned College Football Coach

As rumors swirl about a new romance between newly single Rory McIlroy and CBS sports reporter Amanda Balionis, her husband, Bryn Renner, appears to be caught in the middle.

McIlroy filed for divorce from Erica Stoll last week and was seen with Balionis in public days before the split became official at the Wells Fargo Championship in North Carolina.

Balionis’ flirtatious energy was evident to the golf fans around McIlroy, compared to the way she interviews other golfers.

Balionis’ social media name no longer bears her married name, and she has been spotted at recent golf events without her wedding ring.

Now, Renner’s name has been thrust into the spotlight as the possible romance between McIlroy and Baliionis heats up.

Renner and Balionis began dating in 2019 and got engaged in 2021. They married a year later.
