Since Aaron Hernandez’s death in April 2017, we’ve seen a number of documentaries, podcasts and exploratory pieces produced chronicling his life.
Several of the films have dissected Hernandez’s sexuality however his fiancée, Shayanna Jenkins, says she “saw no indication” that he was gay or bisexual despite claims to the contrary. Hernandez’s alleged secret prison lover, Kyle Kennedy, was the last person to see the Ex-Patriots tight end alive. In a special airing Sunday, July 5, Kennedy plans to address the alleged sexual experiences the two shared while in prison.
“That was my right-hand man. We used to do everything together,” Kennedy says in the upcoming REELZ special Aaron Hernandez: Jailhouse Lover Tells All. “To this day, I tell people he’s the most loyalist person I’ve ever met.”
The Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center inmate claims his relationship with the late New England Patriots tight end turned sexual soon after Hernandez arrived at the facility to serve his life sentence for the murder of his friend Odin Lloyd.
“[We had sex] once or twice a week, whenever there was a good opportunity,” Kennedy alleges in the special, which was filmed inside the prison.”
Rumors about Hernandez’s sexuality have dated back to high school where his friend and football teammate Dennis SanSoucie claimed they had an intimate relationship between 7th and 11th grade.
“Aaron Hernandez: Jailhouse Lover Tells All” premieres on REELZ Sunday, July 5, at 8 p.m. ET.
