Will Levis’ mother, Beth, has opened up about the turmoil her family faced after hackers stole private material belonging to the Tennessee Titans quarterback.
Intimate videos involving Levis and his then-girlfriend, Gia Duddy, were taken without consent and later spread online, surfacing publicly after his rookie season.
In an appearance on the Ross Tucker Football Podcast, Beth described the distressing phone call she received from her son when the footage began circulating in May 2024.
“The first words out of Will’s mouth were, ‘I’m so sorry, mom,’ and it just broke my heart,” she said.
The family later launched an extensive cybersecurity effort and said they eventually learned the content was accessed years earlier—during Levis’ college days in 2022—after his computer, phone, or another digital account was compromised.
After the leak, Beth said the family spent significant sums and pursued multiple avenues to try to remove the videos wherever they appeared online.

Beth continued: “Will ended up engaging and hiring a cybersecurity specialist and private investigator, and spent an exorbitant amount of money to try to get to the bottom of this and through that, try to scrape … what they could to make this go away.”
While some material could be taken down, she stressed that wiping every trace is virtually impossible once something has been shared widely.
She added: “Ultimately, a lot of the content was taken, but you know, you can never scrape anything entirely from the internet. It’s there forever. There is a footprint, unfortunately.”
In the immediate aftermath, some online speculation suggested either Levis or Duddy could have been responsible for the videos being released, largely because the leak came not long after the couple split. Beth rejected that idea, saying the family’s investigation pointed elsewhere.
She said: “We did find out that actually this content was stolen and his private, either laptop or digital platform, phone, whatever, was actually breached and invaded a year or two earlier when he was in college.
“And we come to find out this was an Eastern European hacking group that is notorious for trying to target what they think might be an attractive couple that they can then expose and … do what they do for attention.”
Levis and Duddy were together for three years while attending Penn State, before Levis later transferred to the University of Kentucky. They split shortly before Levis began his 2023 rookie campaign with the Titans, where he is now listed as the team’s third-string quarterback.
Duddy is a social media content creator with more than 300,000 followers on Instagram and around 650,000 followers on TikTok.
