Who Is RHOP Newbie Jassi Rideaux's Fiancé Darius Harris? (2024)

The Season 9 premiere of Real Housewives of Potomac introduced a few new cast members, including “friend of” Jassi Rideaux. At Karen Huger’s birthday bash, Jassi was introduced to the group as a friend of Mia Thorton. However, it didn’t take long before Jassi’s friend Mia was in the hot seat over her divorce and new relationship. The episode ended with Jassi and fellow “friend of” Jacqueline Blake comforting Mia, who shooed away the cameras as she sobbed in the bathroom.

Before the event turned into chaos, Jassi said something to intrigue many RHOP viewers. The former flight attendant mentioned that she just bought a house with her man. And she revealed that said man, named Darius Harris, plays in the NFL. Now, as RHOP fans are curious to learn more about Jassi, they also have some questions about her pro athlete beau. Here’s everything we know so far about Jassi’s fiancé Darius.

Darius was born in Horn Lake, Missouri, on January 17, 1996. He attended college at Mid Tennessee State University, where he played football. In 2019, the linebacker was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs.

Darius has been in the NFL for five seasons now. He played for the Chiefs for the majority of those seasons. In August 2023, he briefly signed with the Las Vegas Raiders practice squad, before returning to the Chiefs in October. In January 2024, Darius won his third Super Bowl. The Chiefs previously won in 2020 and 2022. On her Instagram stories, Jassi said 2024 was her second time attending the Super Bowl, which gives us an idea of her and Darius’ relationship timeline.

When Jassi met the cast in the RHOP season premiere, it didn’t take long for a certain super famous pop star/Chiefs fan to come up in conversation. Wendy Osefo, who admitted she’s becoming a bit of a Swiftie, excitedly asked if Jassi met Taylor Swift. Jassi confirmed that she had. While Jassi doesn’t have pictures with the Fortnight singer on her Instagram, she does have one with Taylor’s boyfriend Travis Kelce.

Will Jassi and Darius be on Bravo’s Kansas City WAGS series?

The day after the RHOP Season 9 premiere, sources confirmed that Taylor Swift will not appear on a new Bravo series about the Kansas City WAGS. While Taylor’s relationship with Travis is more public than her previous one, this news was not exactly shocking. The second most famous Chiefs WAG, Brittany Mahomes, won’t be on the show either. Instead, the in-development series will currently revolve around three other WAGs. If Jassi is friends with them, it’s possible she could make a crossover appearance.

However, since RHOP Season 9 filmed, Darius moved to another team. On August 6, 2024, ESPN reporter Todd Archer announced that Darius signed with the Dallas Cowboys.

Nowadays, Jassi is a proud Cowboys WAG. Just recently, she posted a selfie from a game on Instagram. The newest RHOP star was decked out in a sexy spin on the Canadian tuxedo, which she pair with high, fringe-adorned white boots. Her jacket featured Darius’ name and number, 47, on the back. She captioned the pic, “More than just a fiancé—I’m the playmaker of my own game.”

When did Jassi Rideaux and Darius Harris get engaged?

On RHOP, Jassi referred to Darius as “my man.” Since filming Season 9, they’ve had a relationship upgrade. According to Jassi’s Instagram, Darius popped the question at her birthday party. She announced the happy news of their engagement with a post on August 18th.

Sharing a video of the big moment on her page, which was set to Beyonce and Jay-Z’s song Part II (Love on the Run), Jassi wrote, “To my fiancé! Since we’ve met you’ve never played about me.” She gushed over Darius, adding, “I’m so grateful to be with someone who sees me, who values me and who cherishes me. Living in our answered prayers.” Jassi punctuated the caption with plenty of ring and heart emojis.

Darius wrote in the comments, “You deserve it all baby ! It’s a blessing to make you the future Mrs. Harris. I love you.” Jassi’s RHOP co-star Keiarna Stewart sent congratulations by commenting with heart emojis. In recent weeks, Jassi has shown off her ring (and her proud fiancé status) on social media.
