Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kelli Ferrell talked about a breadth of topics in a new podcast interview, including dating Porsha Williams‘ ex Dennis McKinley, a rumored hookup with Porsha, and her new man.
“I’ve never dated Dennis a day in my life,” Kelli shared. “Dennis has tried to talk to me a few times. I’m not interested in Dennis. Again, I don’t know. The Dennis thing — I don’t know why he continues to insert himself in women’s business. Maybe he want a peach, who knows? I think he likes it… I don’t think he’s coming to the reunion.”
“He be acting like Dennitia,” Kelli added on Angela Yee‘s Lip Service. “I can’t do it with Dennis.”
She also addressed rumors that she met Dennis on a flight.
“I’ve never met anybody on a flight,” she shared. “I damn sure did not meet anybody on the flight going to BET. I actually wound up changing my flight, remember, Lamont? Because we had filmed [the] reunion the day before, so I was exhausted. In regards to the story, it’s changed several times… I haven’t gotten a receipt, a name, an idea… It was the pilot, it was somebody that Dennis knows, and then it was a friend, and you was standing up, and it was — I don’t know, girl.”
Dennis, for his part, piped in on social media to comment on what Kelly said, stating, “Man, this lady wants to get exposed so bad. I could have on the reunion I saved you and kept it G. Please stop. This is your last season. You are boring.”
Kelli also addressed rumors she had gotten with Porsha, specifically responding to whether she had tried to “scissor” Porsha.
“Can you imagine?” she began. “I would have to swing around her neck. Like it’s no way possible.”
As for where the rumor came from, Kelli said it was “with the rest of the lies.”
“We’ve never even been out together,” she added. “Like, we don’t hang out. I’ve probably hung out with her one time after an episode, and I didn’t stay the entire time. I wound up — like me and Cynthia left early together. So the whole ‘you tried to scissor me’ thing — like, girl, when and why? Don’t be too full of yourself.”
Finally, Kelli also confirmed she has a “new man” in her life that her co-star Shamea Morton introduced her to at a “Hawks game.”
“It’s been about a year,” she said of her new relationship.
