This isn’t the first time Nikko made headlines that had folks wondering about his “deal.”#TeamVanna!Back in the fall of 2013, the then-19-year-old Nikko was a student at The University of Arizona when he met Jaycee Akinsanya, a then-34-year-old Hare Krishna monk who was known to wear the spiritual movement’s traditional yellow robe around campus as a way to encourage students to visit his meditation center.At the time, the National Enquirer published a report that White had legitimate concerns over her son’s relationship with Jaycee, with an unnamed source claiming Nikko had asked his parents to donate $1 million so the monk could buy a newer, bigger ashram—a spiritual group gathering place—where they could live together.Now, it’s the Enquirer we’re talking about here, so of course everything they print should be taken with the biggest grain of salt.A post shared by Nikko Santo Pietro (@nikkoshow)However, Nikko himself cleared up a number of the rumors, while providing more details about the nature of he and Jaycee’s relationship.
