Reality Star Claims She Had A Secret Relationship With Ron Isley And Caught Fans Off Guard
ILOSM fam,’ this is one of those stories that will probably make you go “Wait….what?!!” Why, you ask? Well because this reality TV star doesn’t quite seem like the legendary Ron Isley’s type…at least not based on her past ‘I’ll-whoop-a-chick-at-any-moment’ tendencies, but apparently she was.
THEY DATED FOR 2 YEARS?
The reality star is 42 years old, has starred in three VH-1 reality TV shows, and she’s been known to get a lil’ rowdy in the past. Think you know who she is? Hmmm…scroll down to find out…
FROM RON ISLEY TO “FLAVA OF LOVE”
Remember Flava Flav’s dating show, “Flava of Love”? Well you probably remember one of the most memorable ladies on the show and that is Saaphyri Windsor. She was the one who beat up the other chick on their very first day in the Flava house for trying to take her bed. Crazy right? She was also the one who hilariously offered the same woman (who was clearly still distraught and crying) chap stick immediately after the fight, as if everything was all good between them.
Well she revealed in a past interview with Sister2Sister Magazine that she dated Ron Isley, 80, for two years at the SAME time he was dating his then-girlfriend (now his wife), Kandy Isley. Saaphyri said “Mr. Contagious” climbed “between the sheets” with her on the regular and them broke her heart. See the intimate details Saaphyri gave about this and what she said she did when Ron was in jail for tax evasion>>>
‘ALL OF A SUDDEN HE CAME TO MY HOUSE & SAID HE WAS GETTING MARRIED!’
Saaphyri explained to S2S’s, Jaime, that Ron Isley dropped her like a bad habit right before his wedding, although she thought everything was going good with their relationship and had no clue he was getting married to Kandy. Check out the interview excerpts below.
Saaphyri: I was involved with a guy who was a celebrity, who was older than me – very wealthy. And he came to me in 2005 and told me that he was getting married to somebody else. … After we had been together for two years.”
Saaphyri continued:
…He got married in 2006. That really broke my heart. …Even though I was still like, ‘There is maybe somebody out there for me,’ it broke my heart to the point I didn’t know exactly how I was going to react in another relationship, or if I was even ready for another relationship. And this person.
S2S Mag: Well, who is it, so we can go beat him up? [joking]
Saaphyri: Ronald Isley …Mm-hmmm.
The former reality TV star also says Ron Isley was dating her up until the time he married his current wife, Kandy Isley:
Saaphyri: “He wasn’t married when I first got with him. He had just gotten a divorce from Angela [Winbush]. He was messing around with his [then-]new wife. He did have a girlfriend, but I didn’t think that was important. I didn’t really have a lot of respect for anyone that would come between a marriage but I figured a girlfriend isn’t as important.
But I think because I wasn’t able to express my feelings a lot, he would say stuff to me like, ‘Why I don’t never really express myself. It’s because I don’t want to be hurt. I don’t know if I put everything out on the table, if you’re going to do something like he eventually did. You know, it was Mother’s Day and we’re on the way to church and he comes to my house to tell me he’s getting married.”
There’s more…
S2S:Do you think you will ever fall in love again?
Saaphyri: “I want to.
S2S:Ronnie [Ron Isley] was pretty old for you, wasn’t he?
Saaphyri:”I like them old.”
Ever since Saaphyri aired out her and Ron Isley’s alleged dirty laundry some years ago, neither the “Contagious” crooner, nor his camp have denied it as for as we can tell, so it looks like Saaphyri just may be speaking some truth about them.
SAAPHYRI WAS JAILED AT SAME TIME ISLEY WAS
After “Flava of Love,” Saaphyri (pictured above left on “Flava of Love Girls: Charm School”) had a few financial struggles and ended up serving 22 months in prison for stealing her uncle’s identity in 2009 and 2010, which was the same time that Ron Isley was imprisoned for tax evasion. He was married by then, but here’s what Saaphyri said she did:
