Gizelle Bryant was linked to former NFL cornerback Shawn Springs during Season 10 of The Real Housewives of Potomac. Stacey Rusch exposed the alleged romance at the cast getaway to the Caribbean island of Nevis when she showed photos of the pair on a date.
Bryant clarified, saying, "That's not a boyfriend, that's a date", but Stacey responded with, "That's not what the streets are saying." In a confessional interview, Gizelle said that she does not date everyone she goes out with, but revealed her daughter, Grace, had met Shawn and thought he "checked the boxes."
If I'm around anyone, these girls automatically assume this is my boyfriend, and he's gonna be my fiancé, and then he's gonna be my husband... And actually, that's not how life works.

Model Jason Cameron from Bravo's Winter House was Gizelle Bryant's boyfriend for about two years. They were introduced by fellow housewife Ashley Darby and Luke Gulbranson at BravoCon in late 2022.
Jason and Gizelle went on their first date in January 2023. While describing their romance, the Maryland resident told Us Weekly in October of that year:
I'm super happy that Jason kind of understands me, gets my life. I clearly understand his life. He has been a breath of fresh air and someone that I can just tell everything to, and I know it stays with him.
Gizelle Bryant later shared on a February 2024 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen that her "situationship" with Jason was not exclusive because they were free to see other people. The couple did not announce a breakup, but they have not been seen together since early 2025.
Sherman Douglas (2017 – 2019)

Gizelle had an on-and-off relationship with retired NBA player Sherman Douglas for over two years. They met at a gym in 2017, and their relationship was introduced to viewers of the Real Housewives of Potomac in Season 3.
Sherman and Gizelle broke up the first time in early 2018 after the former athlete stood her up before their big date at Robyn and Juan Dixon's house. They rekindled the romance in August 2018 and tried to solve their communication issues with couples counselling.
The RHOP star decided to break up with Sherman for good in May 2019 when the former NBA player cancelled their planned date to Candice Dillard Bassett's wedding in Season 4. Gizelle told The Daily Dish at the time:
I really need somebody who's gonna be there for me and be strong for me and handle all that I do. I have a big life and a big world, and if you can't handle it, then I need to move on.
