Don’t believe everything you read about Kelsey Swanson.
The star of The Real Housewives of Rhode Island addressed claims that she worked as a sex worker before joining the Bravo show.
A report circulating on Instagram on April 4th alleged that Kelsey, 31, appeared as an escort named Alexia Lins on a website that is no longer active. The report claimed her services were priced between $500 and $2,900 in March 2016. Kelsey, a former Miss Rhode Island, immediately denied the claims, stating they were false.
Okay, I had to say something! I saw this ridiculous claim going around, and seriously? She’s NEVER been an escort. It’s all a lie, some fake pages someone created like ten years ago! The state police actually got involved back then to sort it all out. I’m just glad someone finally shared this so we could clear things up, honestly. It’s so frustrating seeing this stuff resurface!
Kelsey enjoys setting the record straight about her life story, and she’s also giving fans a glimpse into how she lives now on the newest season of The Real Housewives. This includes details about her ten-year relationship with a wealthy, but currently unnamed, partner.
She described her relationship as unusual, explaining that her partner dates several people. For about six months out of the year, he spends time in Miami with other partners.
Although Kelsey said this wasn’t her ideal situation, she hesitated to leave because her generous benefactor allowed her to live a very comfortable life.

She explained that she wants a serious, committed relationship, but recognizes her partner is set in his ways. He won’t change, and she feels she has to either accept him as he is or move on.
But Kelsey’s boyfriend doesn’t appear to be her only leading man.
In a preview for the rest of the season, she announced that the two men in her life were amazing, which led her co-star, Rosie DiMare, to exclaim, “So you do have two boyfriends? Seriously?!”
You can watch The Real Housewives of Rhode Island on Bravo, Thursdays at 9 p.m. But before then, here’s more about the women of Rhode Island…

Alicia Carmody is taking charge of her life and getting involved in her fiancé Billy’s successful restaurant, Pizza Mamma. Known for her unpredictable personality – she can be both affectionate and blunt – Alicia is a complex character. As she confronts her past, she’s forced to deal with established relationships and personal changes, which unexpectedly shocks one of her oldest friends.

Kelsey Swanson has always enjoyed a privileged life, living like a princess thanks to her wealthy boyfriend. Now, she’s at a turning point and must choose between continuing her comfortable lifestyle and building a future where she’s independent. When her friend Liz’s loyalty is questioned, Kelsey fears confronting a powerful member of their social circle and potentially losing a key ally.

Okay, so I’m obsessed with Ashley Iaconetti, and honestly, it’s been a rollercoaster watching her life! She finally found Jared, her Prince Charming on TV, and I thought they’d have this perfect happily ever after. But real life is SO much harder, you guys! She’s got two little kids, they moved to Rhode Island, and they’re trying to run this café… it’s a lot! And now, this Rosie person is making things even worse, claiming Ashley doesn’t have her back. I’m seriously stressed for her, it’s just drama after drama, and I need to know what’s going to happen!

Liz McGraw is a leading figure in Rhode Island’s cannabis industry, known for running a highly successful dispensary and being a well-connected person in the state. When Liz and her husband, Gerry, find out they’re going to be grandparents, Liz is determined to maintain her vibrant lifestyle and won’t be slowing down. As she navigates this new family chapter, changes in her close relationships challenge her long-held power and the strength of those bonds.

Rulla Nehme Pontarelli is a woman deeply rooted in her faith and family traditions, prioritizing her loved ones above all else. She’s proud of her Lebanese heritage and brings strong values to her community, particularly regarding marriage. When whispers about her husband surface, Rulla must face difficult questions that test her beliefs, strength, and dedication, thrusting her private life into the public eye.

Let’s be real, I’m not exactly a whiz in the kitchen, but I am the one everyone comes to for the inside scoop! Recently, some pretty private details about Rulla’s marriage started floating around, and I found myself in a tricky spot – do I share what I know, or keep things confidential? It also brought up some old baggage with my own mom, forcing me to deal with childhood hurts I thought I’d left behind. It’s made me realize there’s a price to pay for always being the brutally honest friend – it’s not always easy, but it’s who I am.

Rosie DiMare, a former TV news anchor in Rhode Island, and her husband, Rich, are moving to a bigger house. While Rosie works on expanding her local lifestyle show, she’s also dealing with some personal issues and re-evaluating her relationships with friends and family as things change around her.

Dolores Catania, a well-known personality, is heading to Rhode Island for the summer with her friend Liz McGraw. While enjoying the sun and fun, they’re also starting a new business together: a gummy vitamin designed for women going through menopause. Expect some excitement and maybe a little drama along the way!
