According to the New York Post, just weeks after Manti Te’o’s fake girlfriend, Lennay Kekua died of Leukemia, the Notre Dame star linebacker moved onto a very real girlfriend by the name of Alexandra Del Pilar.
Del Pilar, a 21-year-old college student from Notre Dame’s sister school St. Mary’s in Indiana reportedly first provided a real shoulder to cry on when Te’o’s grandmother died last fall.
“When he was going through all the trouble with his grandma in September, that’s when he started talking with Alex,” the source said.
The Post further states that come October (after Kekua supposedly past away), Del Pilar and Te’o started to become better friends and spending more time together.

I’m wondering if that “Hawaiian” is Te’o?

This tweet by Te’0 ended up being re-tweeted by Del Pilar

It seems though that Te’o has a certain taste. Del Pilar as a resemblance to the pictures of the girl who was supposedly Lennay Kekua.
