When Sean Evans abruptly ended things with his ex-girlfriend, Melissa Stratton, he couldn’t have imagined their breakup would become an unexpected blessing for the adult film star.
New reports claim the “Hot Ones” host’s popularity seemed to have rubbed off on his former beau following their short-lived romance. Searches for the adult film star’s content have skyrocketed, bringing in more viewers than her daily average.
Sean Evans’ Breakup Sparks Increased Interest In Ex-Girlfriend
P—hub recently shared the silver lining in Evans’ breakup from Stratton, noting the explicit content creator became famous overnight.
Following the pair’s split on Valentine’s Day, more people interested in X-rated videos flocked to the platform to check out her work.
The adult entertainment site noted the demand for Stratton exceeded expectations on Wednesday, with her searches reaching a staggering 1,217% compared to her daily average. While the controversial platform didn’t have the final data for the star’s searches for Thursday, they predicted she did even better than V-Day.
The X-rated platform reps expected Stratton’s search count to have a 1,350% increase compared to her daily average. Unfortunately, her popularity doesn’t seem to have eased the pain of being abruptly dumped.
Sources told TMZ the adult film star wasn’t happy about how things ended with Evans because she believed they had a genuine spark. Stratton was allegedly saddened by the breakup and expressed her anger with a savage reaction.
On Thursday, Stratton shared a video of herself dancing in a car with adult film star Johnny Sins and captioned the post: “It’s ok. I’ve got a better bald man to get spicy with.”
As stated, Evans pulled the plug on his relationship with the explicit content creator on Valentine’s Day — less than 24 hours after the pair’s relationship made headlines. According to a report, he ended their romance because he was uncomfortable with the “media attention” they were receiving.
The YouTube star had reportedly emphasized that he wanted a low-key relationship with the adult film star. However, Stratton crossed his boundaries by happily sharing pictures of their tender moments in Las Vegas over the Super Bowl weekend.
Naturally, these pictures sparked speculations about their relationship, with reports claiming the pair were dating “without a doubt.” The narrative took a different turn when sources claimed Stratton was shocked by Evans’ reasons behind their breakup.
According to the insiders, the media personality was aware of Stratton’s profession when they first started dating, and he also invited her to several high-profile events in Las Vegas before the Super Bowl.
He also had no problems taking numerous pictures with her, which she then shared on social media.

The former couple reportedly began talking in October 2023, and by the end of the year, their relationship had grown from virtual communications to physical meetings. They were spotted together on multiple trips around the U.S., with their last outing being the journey to Las Vegas for the 2024 Super Bowl.
Evans and Stratton were seen in the famous Sin City, with the adult film entertainer sharing more updates about their trip on X. In one of the numerous photos she shared, the former couples were seated in what appeared to be a VIP suite at the Super Bowl.
Stratton showed her love for the Kansas City Chiefs by rocking the team’s quarterback, Patrick Mahomes’ number 15 jersey. Meanwhile, Evans opted for a simple brown jacket and jeans. In another shot, the pair posed next to the Vince Lombardi Trophy, with the smitten explicit creator smiling at her then-beau.
While Stratton proudly shared the duo’s moments, Evans, on the other hand, didn’t share any of their joint pictures on his social media page.
Instead, he dropped solo shots of himself at the Super Bowl and multiple images from his interactions with other celebrities, including celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay.
