Fame has two sides of it. Frankly, it allows you to have the best time of your life and confront your success. Diversly, you will have to keep your eyes open, not to let outsiders peek in your privacy.
However, privacy is a foreign word for fans and paparazzi, especially when both individuals are famous. Similar is the case with Colin Kaepernick and his girlfriend, Nessa. The couple has been under public eyes since 2015 and is enjoying a happy relationship along with their successful career.
Let’s know five facts about Colin Kaepernick’s girlfriend/partner, Nessa.
Nessa Was Raised Muslim
Footballer Colin Kaepernick’s girlfriend, Nessa Diab, was born on May 6, 1981. She was raised a Muslim by her Middle Eastern mother and Egyptian father. Diab grew up along with her two brothers and traveled back and forth from the USA to the Middle East.
Furthermore, Nessa’s father’s work took the family to Saudi Arabia during her youths. Her youth in the Arab was not an ordinary life.

Upon returning to the States, Nessa got a B.A. in Mass Communication from Berkeley at the age of 20. Likewise, she used to remix songs and even had one of her remixes played on air before she was officially on the radio.

Nessa’s Boyfriend Was Rumored To Have Converted To Islam
In the world filled with envy, one needs to be full to experience the wholeness of life. Similar is for people to appreciate religion and their values.
However, many are not cultured to accept different values, and many question the moral of those who decide to change their religion—the worse case when you are a celebrity. In 2016, Nessa’s boyfriend, Colin Kaepernick, was obliged to address the rumors that claimed Nessa had converted him to Islam.
The civil rights activist, Colin Kaepernick, blamed the rumors on Islamaphobia. In an interview with Washington, he told that he has massive respect for the religion and knows a lot of Muslim people. He went on to talk about people’s feat and Islamaphobia prevailing in the country.

He further went on to address the States president, Trump, and the growing Islamaphobia. He went on to talk about his girlfriend, their relationship, and his perspective/impact after dating a Muslim.
Colin further said that he respects people’s right to believe what they want to find, and nobody should be prosecuted for their beliefs. Kaepernick’s father, Rick Kaepernick, revealed that Colin is a religious child, but he is more about him and his feelings. Thus, he also has a bible verse tattoed on his arms.
No man can dictate another person’s belief. Therefore leave the man alone.
Kaepernick’s girlfriend, Nessa, is a spark plug. She is a whole package of talent, rebel, confidence, and many more. Let’s hope she stands still with her beliefs along with flexibility. Also, let’s hope the couple remains together for years to come and we hope to hear about the couple’s wedding very soon.
