Rumor is that Deion Sanders might be dating actress and socialite Karrueche Tran, with neither party confirming nor denying it. Interestingly, the speculation comes shortly after Deion Sanders reemerged properly into public life after recovering from a tumor removal surgery that saved him from bladder cancer.

Adding to the speculation, Tran recently posted a series of pictures of her in bikini in Ibiza, Spain. The photos in themselves don’t contribute to the rumor, but the fact that Deion Sanders’ personal assistant, Tysha Stewart, left a comment on the posts does raise questions about whether there might be a connection.
“❤️❤️” wrote Stewart on Tran’s post
Deion Sanders recently spoke about the subject on “Say What Needs To Be Said,” with Asante Samuel. When Samuel asked about a potential connection, the Colorado coach danced around the question and joked about it.
“We got a bad connection,” he joked.
“I can’t hear you.”
There’s also a video from Deion Sanders Jr.’s YouTube channel, “Well Off Media”, in which Tran can be seen accompanying Coach Prime moments before his bladder tumor removal surgery.
Deion Sanders made his will ahead of his bladder tumor removal surgery
Deion Sanders found the situation about his bladder cancer so worrisome that at one point, he seemed to have feared for his life. In another video posted in late July to “Well Off Media”, Sanders can be seen making his will and setting his affairs in order in case the surgery didn’t turn out for the best.
“Mentally, emotionally, last night was tough, yesterday was tough, because I had to make a will. That’s not easy at all, to think that you may not be here,” Sanders said.
Thankfully, everything went well, and Dr. Janet Kukreja managed to remove the tumor completely. Kukreja is the director of urologic oncology at UCHealth. Deion Sanders benefited from an early diagnosis, due to the yearly CT scans he undergoes for circulation issues he has been dealing with for the last few years. Those scans allowed doctors to detect the condition early on, when it was treatable by surgery.
Bladder cancer has a survival rate of 77-78% if caught early. Those odds drop rapidly if it spreads. Since his health scare, Deion Sanders has called on men to be tested and prevent the disease.
