Buffalo Bills cornerback Maxwell Hairston, 23, is allegedly dating model and reality-television personality Shannon Clermont, 32, according to an Instagram post that immediately pulled the Clermont twins’ old legal history back into circulation.
The post, from the account WAGs Unfiltered, said “word on the field” is that Hairston is seeing Clermont and that his family is supportive. Neither Hairston nor Clermont has issued a public statement. The ages are not in dispute. He was born Aug. 6, 2003. She was born March 21, 1994. The gap is about nine years and five months.
Hairston, a West Bloomfield, Michigan, native, was Buffalo’s first-round pick in 2025, No. 30 overall out of Kentucky. He is listed at 5-foot-11, 192 pounds and wears No. 1. After a rookie season delayed by an LCL sprain and later limited by an ankle injury, he entered 2026 as an outside corner. He turned 23 at training camp in August.
Shannon Clermont and her identical twin, Shannade, became famous on Season 14 of Oxygen’s “Bad Girls Club” in 2015, were removed after seven episodes following a house fight, then modeled for Kanye West’s Yeezy Season 6 and built a fashion label, Mont Boudoir. They have also been identified in reporting as escorts. Shannon is the twin named in the Hairston post. Shannade is the twin who went to federal prison.
Shannon Clermont has generally kept her dating life private. In 2022 she sought to annul a brief, secret marriage to jeweler Alex Moss, saying she was manipulated into a New Jersey courthouse ceremony and told to hide it even from her twin. The marriage lasted four days.

The case that still defines the twins began on Jan. 31, 2017.
Prosecutors said Shannade Clermont went to the Midtown Manhattan apartment of James Alesi, a 42-year-old real estate broker, for a $400 prostitution date. Surveillance showed her arriving about 5:50 p.m. and leaving about three hours later. The next morning, Feb. 1, 2017, maintenance workers found Alesi dead of an accidental overdose of cocaine laced with fentanyl. A loose, broken condom was on the bed. She was not charged in his death.
She was charged with what she did with his accounts after she left.
Prosecutors said she copied information from two of Alesi’s debit cards and spent about $20,000 over the following months — rent, a phone bill, flights, luxury clothes, Valentino shoes, a Philipp Plein jacket, Beats headphones and a salon gift certificate. She created a fake email in Alesi’s name, opened a Western Union account and wired herself $1,000. His family found the charges while handling his estate. His sister told a Manhattan federal courtroom, “My brother died and she went shopping.”
Shannade was arrested July 11, 2018, after landing at LaGuardia Airport. The charges were conspiracy to commit wire fraud, access device fraud and aggravated identity theft. She posted $100,000 bail. Shannon stood with her outside court. In November 2018 she pleaded guilty to one count of wire fraud. In April 2019 she was sentenced to one year in federal prison and three years of supervised release. She reported to FCI Dublin on June 4, 2019, and was released early on March 9, 2020. Shannon was not charged.
Shannade later told the New York Post she did not know Alesi was dead when she left and assumed he had passed out drunk. She described him as a known sugar daddy. Shannon called the idea that her sister knowingly abandoned a dying man “sick.”
Two months after Alesi died, the fake email opened in his name was used to register on adult and dating sites. One of those sites was gaybeast.com, which hosted bestiality pornography. Another was sugardaddyforme.com. Investigators also tied Alesi’s compromised identity to other money transfers and purchases. theJasmineBRAND reported the gaybeast.com registration from court documents in July 2018. Wikipedia’s page on the twins notes the bestiality-site sign-ups among the activity that led investigators to Shannade.
