“Papiiii ;)” Paris wrote via her Instagram Story while sharing a red carpet photo with Helfet, 36.

The athlete played college football for Duke University before being signed by the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted free agent in 2012. In a 2018 social media post, Helfet revealed he was stepping away from the game after “some unfortunate injuries.”

“Seven years of pro ball was the dream you imagine it to be in every way,” he wrote via Instagram at the time. “I have no right to be anything but grateful.”

On Monday, Helfet exchanged football stadiums for red carpets as he enjoyed date night with his girlfriend.

“All dressed up to celebrate #AngelBall2025,” Paris wrote via her Instagram Story on Monday, October 27. “Thanks for having me @Gabriellesangels.”

Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation for Cancer Research hosts the annual charity event, which helps raise funds for causes that focus on cancer prevention, detection and treatments.

News first broke in April 2023 that Paris and Powell, 37, had broken up after the model shared a cryptic social media post about knowing “your worth” and moving “onto the next.”

While both parties kept details about the split private, they each had the opportunity to reflect on the relationship later on.

“I will always have nothing but love for her and respect for her,” Powell said in a September interview with GQ. “Everybody’s always going to have their own narrative on things and all that. And she’s welcome to it.”

Powell continued, “Relationships are really hard. And when two people break up, they each go to their own brunch, and they will each tell their own narrative.”

As for Paris, she insinuated that Powell’s 2023 movie, Anyone But You, with Sydney Sweeney played a role in the breakup.

“It was just, this is what I have to do for my job. I had two options. I could either pretend like I was going along with everything and have everyone wonder, like, ‘Are they hooking up? Are they not hooking up? Is she OK with this?'” she recalled in a June episode of the “Too Much” podcast. “Or stand up for myself and say, ‘No, I’m actually not OK with this, and I’m walking away.’ So that’s what I decided to do.”

While Paris didn’t name Powell or Sweeney, 28, in her podcast interview, she recalled how difficult it was to have a breakup play out in the public eye.

“And at the end of the day, it was like, well, work comes first,” she recalled. “And if that’s the case, power to you, that’s your priority. I gotta walk away.”
