Kenny Smith and his rumored girlfriend, Aline Bernardes, are going strong.
The “Inside the NBA” personality hit the beach in Miami again with the Brazilian model on Thursday, where the pair was photographed swimming in the ocean together.
Smith, who sported a pair of light pink swim shorts, was seen in the water, while Bernardes, in a bronze-colored bandeau bikini, clung onto his back.
Other photos showed the couple walking on the beach together and chatting during their swim.
It came a month after the 58-year-old Smith was spotted on a separate beach date with Bernardes in May, when he was in Miami for the F1 Grand Prix.
Bernardes, who is believed to be 39 years old, is a swimwear model and influencer, with over 200,000 Instagram followers.
The curly-haired brunette is making her return to Miami Swim Week, where she’s set to walk in the Hot Miami Styles runway show during the first week of July.
“See you guys at the Hard Rock Hotel,” she wrote on her Instagram Story on Friday.
Smith and Bernardes have yet to publicly address the status of their relationship.
After they were first spotted in May, the former two-time NBA champion played coy when the “Inside the NBA” crew pressed him about the paparazzi photos.
At the time, Ernie Johnson, Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley had a good laugh while appearing to bust Smith during the TNT studio show during the 2023 playoffs.
“Any photos you guys want to share from the weekend?” Johnson asked.
Barkley replied: “I’ve got one of Kenny,” which drew a huge laugh from O’Neal.
Smith, who played it cool and said it was his first time at Formula One, did not divulge any details.
While Smith was frolicking in the sand, Barkley was surprising TNT co-host Ernie Johnson with the news he was going into Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame.
It’s unclear exactly when Smith and Bernardes began their relationship.
The TNT personality hasn’t been linked to anyone romantically since his divorce with Gwendolyn Osborne, which was finalized in 2021.
Osborne, a former model on “The Price Is Right,” filed for divorce in 2018 after 12 years of marriage.
Bernardes celebrated her 39th birthday in December 2022, according to an Instagram post.
