Rosado previously opened up in 2021 about dating Johnson following his domestic violence case with his ex-wife, Evelyn Lozada.

“It wasn’t a concern,” she told Page Six about the scandal. “Chad is a great person.”

The reality TV alum added, “People go through things, people make mistakes, and you learn from them. If you base things off of mistakes that people made then you’ll never make it in life. Nobody is perfect.”
