The Next Gen NYC cast member was all smiles this week as she and her mystery boyfriend celebrated their first Christmas together. Fans got a glimpse at the festivities on Thursday, December 25, when Riley’s mom, The Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Kandi Burruss, posted the family’s sweet holiday photo.
“Merry Christmas Everyone!!!!!!” Kandi captioned the snap. “Praying that everyone is enjoying their Christmas!”

Willis. The whole gang gathered around a Christmas tree while donning festive pajamas.
Todd reshared the picture on his Instagram along with a short but heartfelt holiday message: “Cherish the moments with your family this Christmas,” he wrote. “May you all have a Merry Christmas!”

The Burruss-Tucker family rang in the holiday in New York City, where Kandi is currently performing in the Broadway musical & Juliet. The Atlanta mom teased her Christmas plans in her December 15 Amazon Live stream, just weeks after announcing her split from Todd.
“Y’all already know I’m going through a divorce, but we have decided that we’re still gonna do Christmas together, even though we have all this mess going on right now,” she said. “We’re still gonna do it together for our kids. And, so, we are spending Christmas in New York.”

Riley Burruss explains why she’s keeping her relationship private… for now
Although she has posted several PDA photos with her new man, Riley has chosen to keep her relationship relatively private. She touched on the budding romance at BravoCon 2025, revealing she had actually met her boyfriend through a family member and had been dating the man for several months.
“How did I find [him]? You know, I met him through my sister,” Riley said, referring to her stepsister, Kaela.
The Atlanta daughter was also pressed about her hesitancy to reveal her beau’s identity, and suggested he may pop up on Next Gen NYC.
“I mean, I know a lot of people’s boyfriends love the screen time,” she said. “Mine actually likes me to be the main character. So, he lets me shine my light… He may make an appearance. You’ll have to tune in. He’s amazing.”
