Kamala Harris Dated This Talk Show Host & He Has the Best Response to Their Romance

This is brand new information. Kamala Harris dated Montel Williams before she became Vice President, and he has the best reaction to their relationship.

Harris’ relationship with Williams—who is best known for his talk show, The Montel Williams Show, in the ’90s and ’00—went viral last week after Twitter users discovered a photo of the former couple with the talk show host’s daughter, Ashley, at the Race to Erase Multiple Sclerosis gala in May 2001. At the time, Harris was working at the Office of the City Attorney of San Francisco.

“The Fact that Kamala Dated Montel and it seems like no one remembers lol,” tweeted user @_REALbossbabe.

“Vice President elect Kamala Harris makes history as the first Vice President in history to date Montel Williams,” tweeted user @MannyBuckley.

Though Williams didn’t respond to the recent viral tweet of his and Harris’ relationship, he did react to Twitter users discovering their romance in 2019. “@KamalaHarris and I briefly dated about 20 years ago when we were both single. So what?” he tweeted in June 2019 when the same photos circulated. “I have great respect for Sen. Harris. I have to wonder if the same stories about her dating history would have been written if she were a male candidate?”
