Mia Thornton Caught in Love Triangle? RHOP Star Denies Claims Her Beau Incognito Pursued Her Best Friend

The personal life of Real Housewives of Potomac (RHOP) star Mia Thornton has become a hot topic in Season 9 as tensions flare around her relationship with her boyfriend, Incognito. In Episode 3, co-star Jacqueline Blake claimed that Incognito made a romantic move on her after his relationship with Mia supposedly ended. Jacqueline revealed in a confessional, “Inc and Mia lived a rebellious lifestyle. But after they split, he started asking me out for dinner.” However, she chose to avoid the situation to preserve her friendship with Mia, saying, “I didn’t want any problems.”

Mia quickly responded to the rumors on Instagram, defending both her relationship and Incognito. “Inc would never have relations with any of my friends. If he reached out, it was to reach me—period,” she wrote. Mia also addressed her personal growth, declaring, “I’m not involved with anyone but my man. I’m just not that girl anymore.”

A Rekindled Love Story: Mia and Incognito’s History

Mia and Incognito share a long, complicated history, having first met in high school in Columbus, Georgia. Their young romance lasted through adolescence, and the couple even moved together to Charlotte, North Carolina. However, when Incognito relocated back to Georgia for work, their relationship ended. Despite their breakup, they maintained a friendship over the years, a connection that eventually reignited into a romance in late 2023.

Mia and Incognito made their relationship Instagram official on New Year’s Eve 2023, with Mia posting a cozy photo captioned, “4.4.4. #2024 Let’s Go!” Incognito shared the same photo with a heartfelt message celebrating their decades-long bond: “It’s been two decades since we last celebrated my birthday together. Cheers to our happily ever after.”

Mia Thornton’s Complicated Relationship Status

While Mia and Incognito are enjoying their rekindled romance, Mia is still legally married to her estranged husband, Gordon Thornton. During a 2023 appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Mia confirmed the separation, saying, “We’re separated.” She later revealed that the split was amicable, explaining that the couple decided to part ways in June 2023 after 11 years of marriage. Mia and Gordon share two children: Jeremiah, 9, and Juliana, 7.

Gordon’s public comments about their breakup were less amicable, however. He told TMZ that Mia had been dishonest during their marriage, saying, “I gave her permission [to date other people], yet she still chose to sneak around.” The insinuations added fuel to the public’s perception that Mia’s romantic life might be more complicated than she initially let on.

Fans Speculate on Mia’s New Chapter

Though Mia and Incognito seem committed to building a future together, fans are closely watching how this unconventional love story will unfold. With no engagement announced yet, Mia clarified at BravoCon 2023, “I’m not engaged, but I’m committed.” As Mia navigates her separation from Gordon and deepens her relationship with Incognito, she remains unapologetic about her choices, hinting that she is moving forward on her own terms.

The ongoing season of RHOP promises more insights into Mia’s personal life, with new revelations set to stir the pot further. Fans can catch new episodes of The Real Housewives of Potomac on Bravo, where Mia’s journey continues to captivate audiences.
