Kelsey Swanson is speaking out after rumors of past escorting were shared online.
Amid speculation about the potential identity of her mystery man and whether or not she is a sugar baby, the Real Housewives of Rhode Island cast member reacted to claims made about her supposed involvement with a VIP escort service in a couple of Instagram comments.
“So here I am, minding my business, checking my DMs—and someone sends me screenshots they’ve apparently been holding onto since 2016 of new Rhode Island housewife Kelsey Swanson allegedly promoting herself as an escort … The screenshots are dated 2016—so exactly 10 years ago—and Kelsey was going by the name Alexia Lins,” @Mr. Housewives wrote in the caption of an April 4 post, which included screenshots of the website in question.
According to the fan page, Kelsey allegedly described herself as “sexy, classy, and elegant” as she spoke of fantasies and trying new things.
“Now let’s talk about the pricing… the maximum listed was $2,900 for five hours (plus ‘dessert’), and the minimum was $500 for a one-hour ‘introduction,'” the report continued. “So yes… she was making MONEY … Allegedly.”
The outlet went on to note that the website was no longer live.
“And now I can’t help but wonder… is this how she met her boyfriend, John Caprio? Because the timeline is lining up a little too perfectly. She said on the premiere they’ve been together for 10 years… and this website was active 10 years ago … Hmmm,” it concluded.

Following the sharing of the post, Kelsey weighed in.
“Had to comment on this one- never have been an escort. Pages were completely made up 10 years ago. State police were involved. Thanks for sharing tho,” she wrote in the first of two comments.
Then, after someone pointed out that actual escorts advertise themselves with “waaaay more provocative photos,” Kelsey agreed.
“They took beach pics and photos from me on a family cruise! I canttttt,” she replied.
