The woman whose photo was used to dupe Manti Te’o said yesterday that the accused mastermind behind the plot called to apologize — but it’s too little, too late.
“Ronaiah [Tuiasosopo] has called and not only confessed, but he has also apologized,” Diane O’Meara told NBC’s “Today” show.
“I don’t think there’s anything he could say to me that would fix this.”
O’Meara unwittingly became the face behind “Lennay Kekua,” Te’o’s fake online girlfriend whose “death” from leukemia turned the Notre Dame grid star into an inspirational story this past season.
O’Meara has never met Te’o, and said she and Tuiasosopo are not close despite being high-school classmates and Facebook friends.
“The past five years, [Tuiasosopo] has literally been stalking my Facebook and stealing my photos,’’ O’Meara said.
O’Meara, a LA marketing executive, told “Today,” “It’s very bizarre, and it’s a very twisted and confusing scenario.”
