An Instagram influencer has addressed swirling romance rumours after liking a blunt Kim Kardashian message on Twitter.
LaMelo Ball’s rumoured girlfriend doesn’t seem fazed about their 13-year age gap.
Ana Montana (who previously went by the name Analicia Chaves), a 33-year-old fashion influencer, “liked” a tweet about rumoured couple Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson, who are 14 years apart.
“So Kim Is 14 years older than Pete? Y’all don’t care huh ? Lol,” the tweet read.
Chaves has been criticised online for the age difference, but she has not directly addressed the rumours.

It’s unclear when Chaves and the 20-year-old Hornets point guard were first linked. While they have yet to make their relationship Instagram-official, Chaves and Ball often exchange flirty comments and heart emojis under their photos, The New York Post reports.
Chaves has been spotted rocking a diamond necklace with a No. 1 pendant that is believed to be a gift from Ball.
The reigning NBA Rookie of the Year has made it known that he wants to switch his No. 2 Charlotte jersey to No. 1.
“I’m fighting every day,” Ball said during the Hornets’ media day in Sept. “Definitely just want to be me out there and just playing in No. 2 don’t feel right.”
Ball, 20, was the No. 3 pick at the 2020 NBA Draft and has made a red-hot start to his career in the league.
Ball previously played in Australia’s NBL with the Wollongong Hawks in the final year before he was drafted.
He was selected by Michael Jordan’s Charlotte Hornets team.
Ball attracted a strong fan base in Australia during his NBL season with the Illawarra Hawks.
His popularity was on show against the Sydney Kings last year when he helped attract the biggest crowd in NBL history, with 17,514 fans attending Qudos Bank Arena.
Ball has taken another big step forward early in the 2021-22 NBA season.
“He’s the real deal,” Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell said earlier this year.
“I’m not going to lie, I’m very impressed with his playmaking ability, his competitiveness, but his joy … he’s very talented; he can do many different things.”
Warriors forward Draymond Green recently tweeted “LaMelo is a problem!”
“Right now, with the way things look, he looks like NBA rookie of the year to me,” Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said. “He’s getting it done statistically, their team is winning. He’s got energy, he’s got a vibe, he’s got swagger. If you like watching players that play with flair, he’s right up there.”
