Stephen A. Smith Dating ESPN’s Rosalyn Gold-Onwude?
Stephen A. Smith’s love life has been the subject of frequent speculation by sports fans.
Although the ESPN star has been very vocal about his preferences in women, he has yet to actually be linked to anyone.
That all changed this week, when reports emerged that he may be dating fellow ESPN personality Rosalyn Gold-Onwude.
The rumors stem from a series of photos that went viral online over the past 24 hours.

Gold-Onwude is a former member of Stanford’s women’s basketball team, where she went to three Final Fours and two National Championship Games.
With her in the lineup, Stanford won four Pac-10 titles.
She ended her collegiate career as the school’s all-time leader in games played and won the conference Co-Defensive Player of the Year Award in 2010.
From there, she made the jump to broadcasting.
From 2017 to 2019 Gold-Onwude worked NBA games for TNT, before making the jump to ESPN.
She occasionally serves as a fill-in host for ‘First Take’ between Smith and Max Kellerman, and worked on “The Boardroom” with Kevin Durant and Rich Kleiman.
