This one might be one of Twitter’s urban myths, but the Real Housewives stan in us HAD to mention it. The story (according to the online streets) goes that Juan Dixon and Gabrielle dated in 2005, during her separation from her first husband. At the time, Juan was with the Portland Trailblazers and was in a long-term relationship with his current wife, RHOP star Robyn Dixon.

While it’s unclear if Juan and Robyn, who married in July 2005, were husband and wife by then, our calculations show he was still with her when he reportedly dated Gabby. Twitter users also unearthed a photo of Juan and Gabrielle at an event with several friends. However, neither of them has ever admitted to dating one another.

Juan isn’t the first of the Being Mary Jane star’s rumored boos. In November 2021, comedian Faizon Love claimed he and Gabby were making out at a club while she was dating former NBA star Vince Carter. Gabrielle never addressed Faizon’s claim.
