Thanks to a regular "Saturday Night Live" sketch, many fans thought Leslie Jones was married to her "SNL" co-star Kevin Mooney. The two played out a fake relationship on-screen on what they called the "The Leslie & Kyle Show" but it was just that – fake, according to Distractify. The sketch took a hiatus for a while, but when they brought it back in 2019, it must have seemed more real than ever because the rumors started running rampant that Mooney and Jones were together.
Even during the sketch, they tricked the audience, with Mooney saying that they really thought their relationship was real. Then, they performed a flirty musical number that left fans scratching their heads. But the "Coming to America 2," who has never been married, explained in a 2017 tweet why she's remained single and never even had a secret boyfriend.
"Just so everyone knows, there was never a secret boyfriend," Jones wrote. "I have terrible luck with men. Real Talk. They do not like me."
While it's hard to believe that's true with Jones' glam looks and ability to elicit belly laughs, at least the star keeps a sense of humor about her single status.
