Who Is Kenya Moore Dating?
Kenya Moore, the former Miss USA and star of the Real Housewives of Atlanta, is currently dating Roi Shlomo, an Israeli entrepreneur. The two were first linked in May 2023, when Moore was spotted on a date with Shlomo in New York City.
Born in Israel, Roi has a passion for exploring countries beyond the United States and has a deep appreciation for travel.
Shlomo is the CEO and founder of Kale Me Crazy, a chain of health food restaurants in Israel. He is also the co-founder of the Israeli investment firm Kale Ventures. Shlomo is 37 years old, which makes him 15 years younger than Moore.
Kenya Moore has been open about her relationship with Shlomo on social media and on the Real Housewives of Atlanta. She has said that she is “very happy” with him and that he makes her feel “alive again.”
In an interview with People magazine, Kenya Moore said that she met Shlomo through her friend Monyetta Shaw. “She introduced us last year,” Moore said. “We’ve been friends ever since, and we’ve been dating for a few months now.”
Moore said that she is attracted to Shlomo’s intelligence, his sense of humor, and his kindness. “He’s a great guy,” she said. “He’s smart, he’s funny, and he’s kind. He makes me feel good about myself.”
Moore’s relationship with Shlomo is her first serious relationship since her divorce from Marc Daly in 2021. Daly and Moore were married for four years and had one daughter together, Brooklyn.
Roi is familiar with being in the public eye and has received recognition through interviews and appearances on both local and national platforms. Local websites like Simply Buckhead and nationwide outlets such as Modern Luxury Jezebel have showcased his presence.
Similar to Kenya, Roi strongly advocates for giving back to the community and actively supports local charitable organizations.
An Ongoing Divorce Battle
Kenya has found herself in a complicated and lengthy divorce process with her estranged husband, Marc, since she filed for divorce in May 2021, referring to it as the “world’s longest divorce.”
Marc, who owns a restaurant in NYC, has allegedly been causing delays and took an extended period to submit basic documents related to the divorce proceedings.
One of the key points of contention between the couple is the division of their shared property. Despite Kenya being the owner of the home, Marc is reportedly seeking a portion of it, leading to secret disputes between them.
Additionally, he has requested that Kenya cover his legal fees and has demanded joint legal custody, even though they had previously agreed to Kenya having primary custody of their 4-year-old daughter, Brooklyn.
Earlier this year, Kenya revealed that they did not have a prenuptial agreement in place, which has contributed to the extended duration of the divorce process.
While the divorce proceedings have been challenging, Kenya expressed her confidence to TMZ that the issues will be resolved soon. Marc responded to the case by agreeing to Kenya having primary custody, but he insisted on joint legal custody to have a say in important decisions regarding their daughter’s life.
Kenya and Marc tied the knot in June 2017 but separated in September 2019.
