Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kenya Moore must be feeling “Gone with the Wind fabulous” as it’s been revealed that she is officially dating Israeli entrepreneur Roi Shlomo.
Roi, who deals mostly in restaurants, is the successful founder of multiple businesses, including the chain Kale Me Crazy café. He has an estimated worth of $13.4 million, per The U.S. Sun.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight earlier this month, Kenya explained that she and Roi have a lot of common interests, and the two are taking things slow.
“Roi has been someone that I’ve known for a while, over a year, as friends and I just think we have a lot in common,” she revealed. “We have friends in common, likes in common and, if nothing else, a great friendship.”
Fans may recall that Roi is featured in the trailer for season 15 of RHOA, and the pair’s “budding romance” will be a storyline throughout the season as it causes a little drama between Kenya and her long-time nemesis, Marlo Hampton. Marlo claims that she and Roi had a fling in the past.
“Is that Roi? I went on a date with him before. He popped my cherry,” Marlo alleges in the clip. However, Kenya isn’t buying it.
“Sorry, there’s some bulls**t that got stuck in my throat,” Kenya claps back mimicking a vomiting gesture.
Kenya continued to call B.S. on Marlo’s claims, telling ET, “It’s not true. It’s 100 percent not true. She makes up everything. You can’t believe a word that comes out of her mouth.”
As Kenya begins a new chapter in her life, an old one just won’t seem to die. As many fans know, Kenya has been embroiled in the “world’s longest divorce” from ex Marc Daly since 2021.
Late last year, Kenya revealed that the couple did not have a prenuptial agreement prior to getting married, making the divorce proceedings stretch out longer than anticipated.
The former couple, who co-parent daughter Brooklyn, 4, are currently battling over property and legal fees. Also, though Marc has agreed to Kenya having primary custody, he has filed a motion seeking joint legal custody of Brooklyn so he can have a say in the parenting decisions regarding their daughter.
Still, Kenya has hope that she and Marc can end their legal battle sooner rather than later for the sake of Brooklyn.
“I’m hoping that there’s a light [at the end of the tunnel],” she told the outlet. “I feel that there is, we’re in a much better place. We have a mediation coming up, and I think that we just both have to come together for the sake of our daughter, so we can just move on to co-parenting and not any drama with us.”
