Evelyn Lozada And Chad Ochocinco Make Ebony’s Hot Couples Of 2012 List

Reality TV stars Evelyn Lozada and her fiance Chad Ochocinco have made Ebony’s Hot Couples of 2012 list – surprised? The Basketball Wives star and her New England Patriot star are joined by six other couples including Keyshia Cole and Daniel “Boobie” Gibson, Eric Benet and his wife Manuela Testolini, T.I. and Tiny, Roland Martin and Jacquie Hood Martin and “The View” co-host Sherri Shepherd and husband Lamar Sally. According to Ebony, these couples share their love story and how they make love work in the relationship.

We have two excerpts from the issue, Keyshia Cole, Daniel “Boobie” Gibson and Evelyn and Chad.

Keyshia who married “Boobie” last year tells Ebony why she decided to give him a chance,

“I was kind of through with relationships. I didn’t feel like guys were mature enough. What made me gravitate toward Gib was his faith in God, more than anything. He seemed like a loving person. He talked a lot about his grandmother, who had passed away, and the things she instilled in him.”

Daniel shared of Keyshia,
“She has morals and a big heart. Once we met things happened fast. I felt like she was perfect for me. I proposed to her on New Year’s Eve, right when the ball dropped. I got down on one knee at the same time.”

Chad, who’s set to marry Evelyn in a summer wedding shared how he knew she was the one,

“She was up-front and honest.   I never had that before.   I always [say to] people in early conversations, ‘Tell me about yourself.’ They always skip a story and try to come off squeaky clean. They tell me wha they think I want to hear. she didn’t send her representative. She told me what she went through. She gave me A,B,C. She said, ‘Take it or leave it.'”

And Evelyn on Chad,

“You must be open. That’s something I had never done before. I didn’t want anyone telling him something about me. He doesn’t judge me on my past or anything.”

With so many Hollywood divorces coming out of 2011, we wish all the couples the best! Check out more info on all six couples in Ebony – on newsstands now!
