Stephen A. Smith has finally addressed the rumors that he is dating First Take host Molly Qerim.
Chris “Mad Dog” Russo quipped the pair had just gotten married as they were both dressed in white.
“No, there’s nothing going on!” Smith said. “You understand what I’m saying? America’s been lying about that for a couple years.”

“Oh, they sure do,” Russo replied. “I get asked all the time, ‘How’s the famous couple doing?’”
“But here’s the upside to all of that,” Smith said. “They know my taste, so therefore they know that’s a compliment to her; and obviously, she has great taste, as well. So I guess that’s America’s way of saying we both really, really look good. “But it does mean that First Take not only is the no. 1 show because of our content. We look the part.”
Qerim joined First Take in 2015 after Cari Champion was promoted to ESPN’s Sports Center.
