Season 10 of RHOA is really heating up as the single ladies start to look for love and Sheree Whitfield may have found it. 

Rumors about Sheree Whitfield’s imprisoned boyfriend have been swirling for months. On the latest episode of RHOA, she even confirmed that she’s been seeing someone. During the confession, Sheree even told her friends that her new boo is in jail and that his incarceration has been good for their relationship.

It’s been explained that Tyrone Gilliams is in a federal prison right now after committing a white-collar crime. According to US Weekly, his crime was wire fraud and Gilliams as already been in prison for a few years.

On RHOA, Sheree gushed about Gilliams as the women got ready to embark on San Francisco. She doesn’t really seem bothered that he’s behind bars or that he is a law-breaker.

“I feel like he gets me,” Sheree explained. “We’ve been talking on the phone.”

It turns out that Tyrone isn’t just some random guy in prison, He and Sheree dated several years ago, before he started serving time.

“I didn’t know he went away! We broke up,” she said. “We stopped talking before he went to prison because he didn’t want to get me involved in any of that.”

Sheree has said that she rekindled her relationship with Gilliams recently after he reached out to her while behind bars. It seems that Sheree’s prison bae needed someone to talk to and she is loving the attention.

When it comes to her RHOA co-stars, at least one is way less than impressed. Right at the end of the episode, NeNe Leakes spoke about knowing Sheree’s man, calling him a fraud.

For those who have tuned in to RHOA for a while, they might remember Tyrone from Season 4. His connection to Sheree and NeNe is sure to spark up some serious drama. Tyrone is the promoter who nearly ruined Sheree and NeNe’s friendship.

The now-imprisoned promoter reportedly told Sheree that NeNe was trash talking her. While setting up an appearance for the women years ago, he claimed that NeNe called him up and told him that he could book Sheree for cheaper than he did. NeNe denied saying that, which is why she is so shocked during the girls’ trip when Sheree claims to have found love.

This is certainly the fuel for Sheree Whitfield’s RHOA Season 10 storyline. It should also create quite a bit of drama between Sheree and NeNe, who is still obviously bothered by the drama with Tyrone Gilliams from years ago.
