Kay Adams opens up on personal life in revealing interview

Kay Adams is dishing out different X’s and O’s.

During an appearance Tuesday on the “Bussin’ With The Boys” podcast, the “Up & Adams” host peeled back the curtain on her personal life, expanding on why she’s “in a good place” to settle down and how she got to this point.

“I think I haven’t known what I’ve wanted super much. I think I’m always in survival mode of what’s next, how am I gonna survive and advance, that’s a life thing,” Adams told hosts Will Compton and Taylor Lewan.

“I’m very happy with where I am, I’m settled, I’m a little more calm, like I feel a little more able to be there for someone else, I feel that’s where I am. Dating’s funny though, you know?”

Adams, a self-professed “relationship girl,” was then quizzed about her ideal first date, which she described as a “cozy dinner” planned and paid for by her partner.

“The truth is, I have realized that I have very little experience dating,” Adams said. “… By the time that you are so persistent, that I’m on a first date with you, we’re already in love, you’re my boyfriend and we are consummating — not physically — this works. … In all my relationships, it’s the first date is just like yep, now it begins.”

As for the qualities that Adams looks for in a potential suitor, intelligence and wit would impress on a first date, but “banter” and “loyalty” are big keys to her heart.

“There’s nothing better than banter, and I have that with so few people, but I would say the loyalty. I need to feel secure. I need somebody who makes me feel secure. So loyalty is more important than anything. And I’m a very loyal person,” she said.

This isn’t the first time details about Adams’ romantic life have spurred headlines.

Last September, the 39-year-old sportscaster pushed back on rumors she was involved with then-Giants quarterback Daniel Jones.

“I’m not dating Daniel Jones — breaking, breaking news — I’ve met him all of two times, wish him the best,” Adams said on “The 25/10 Show.”

Jones, 28, is now enjoying a career resurgence with the 8-2 Colts.
