Loni Love is an Instagram queen. The Real, cohost, 48, featured her boyfriend James Welsh for a Throwback Thursday post on August 22 with two photos of him, complete with a funny caption from the comedian herself.
Watch!
Loni shared two images of James, 54, as he sat on steps in a striped shirt and khaki pants. “#tbt #unclejames in DC 1995 (before I was born) and 24 years later today 2019…#timeflies.” He appeared stoic in the older photo, and flashed a big smile in the recent one.

“I was down to my final two, it was a championship, right. The final one, he just wouldn't ask me on a date.” She explained. “So, James stepped right in.” And the rest was history.
