The former “Real Housewives Of Atlanta” star, 54, was pictured holding hands in Miami Beach over the weekend with North Carolina suit maker Nyonisela Sioh. The businessman is a friend of “RHOA’s” Peter Thomas who owns local restaurant Bar One. Thomas is rumored to have introduced the new couple.

Leakes and Sioh don’t appear to be Instagram official yet, but that may be only a matter of time now.

The actress recently told The Shade Room that her late husband gave his blessing for her to start over.

“Grieving is hard, even harder and depressing alone,” the Bravolebrity said. “Gregg and I had a very tearful conversation before his passing. His words to me were, ‘Be happy, keep smiling and he who finds you, has found a good one.’“
