Surreal Life's Kim Zolciak and Chet Hanks Address Hookup Rumors

As a lifestyle expert and avid reality TV fan, I have to admit that the potential romance between Kim Zolciak and Chet Hanks on MTV’s “Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets” has piqued my interest. The chemistry between these two stars is undeniable, and their instant connection has already set the stage for some exciting moments in the upcoming series.

A potential love connection has the Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets house buzzing.

Following the MTV reality show trailer dropped on June 28th, there were hints of a potential connection between Kim Zolciak and Chet Hanks. Now, the two cast members are sharing insights into their immediate attraction.

“I really like Chet,” the reality star shared with TopMob News. “He’s an amazing person and we had meaningful talks. Keep watching to find out more!”

The mutual feeling was clear, as the child of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson expressed, “Kim is amazingly cool. We clicked right away. She’s quick-witted and sharp. Her sassy humor draws me in. I enjoy people with good banter, and Kim and I hit it off wonderfully. We’ve kept in touch and our connection remains strong.”

But did the two actually get romantic while filming?

Chet played coy, refusing to reveal any information. Kim joined in, hinting, “You’ll need to wait and see, dear.”

At the same time, Kim confessed that she didn’t know Chet was connected to two famous Hollywood figures before joining the “Surreal Life” house in Colombia.

When I initially encountered him, I must admit I didn’t recognize who he was. I had to consult my daughter Brielle Biermann about it. She quipped, “Mom, there’s only one Chet in the world.” That was amusing.

Regarding Kim’s prolonged divorce from her husband of twelve years, Kroy Biermann, the reality star has been dedicating time to prioritizing her own well-being during the marital turmoils.

During this entire period, I haven’t been seeing anyone or anything romantic, Kim explained. My priority has been my children, Brielle, 27, Ariana, 22, KJ, 13, Kash, 11, and the twins Kaia and Kane, age 10, as well as taking care of myself and rediscovering who I am, Kim added.

“I don’t know what the future holds,” she added. “It’s been a rough, rocky road.”

The reality show “Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets” debuts on MTV at 9 p.m. on July 23. For a peek at all the famous participants, continue below.
