Sharpe Addresses the Public Leak
The Hall of Famer expressed deep regret over the incident, particularly as someone who values his privacy. “To have one of my most intimate details — the audio — shared publicly is extremely embarrassing,” he admitted. “Millions of people engage in consensual acts, but having it broadcast is a different matter.”
Sharpe clarified that he had never used Instagram Live before, saying, “I threw my phone on the bed, engaged in the activity, and didn’t know that Instagram Live was on until my other phone started buzzing.”

Despite the embarrassing slip-up, Sharpe remains a popular figure, but it’s unclear whether he’ll respond to the offer or continue his work as a sports commentator.
