Meeting Kim Zolciak was a highlight for Chet Hanks — and now he’s open to dating the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” alum after sparks flew on the set of “The Surreal Life: Villa of Secrets.”
“One of the best moments of my life was meeting Kim Zolciak,” the actor told exclusively on the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards black carpet at UBS Arena in Elmont, NY, on Wednesday.
Hanks, 34, shared that he and Zolciak, 46, have kept in touch since the MTV reality show wrapped filming, and he even joined her and her girlfriends out for dinner in Los Angeles recently.
The “Shameless” star claimed, however, that he and the “Don’t Be Tardy” alum are just “really good friends,” adding a coy laugh when asked whether there are any benefits involved.
The positive feelings are mutual, as Zolciak recently called Hanks a “nice guy” and smiled when a paparazzo mentioned his name.
Despite their current status, the “White Boy Summer” rapper said he would “absolutely” move in order to date the former Bravolebrity.
“I’m living in Nashville right now, so it’s not that far [from Georgia],” he pointed out.
As for Zolciak’s ongoing divorce from Kroy Biermann, Hanks said he has not been keeping up with the news but wishes his pal “the best with that.”
The “Your Honor” alum added that he is not turned off by the “Don’t Be Tardy” singer having six children — as he has one of his own — and considers himself a “family man.”
Hanks is very close with his A-list parents, Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson.
Chet even told that the “Forrest Gump” star, 68, has offered him “really great advice” when it comes to his rising acting career.

The “Empire” actor said the best tip he has ever gotten from his famous dad was “if you know your lines and you show up on time and you’re nice to everybody, that gets you a long way.”
Chet is set to put his hereditary acting chops to use in an upcoming Netflix movie that premieres in January called “Running Point,” in which he said he plays an NBA star.
He added that he is also focusing on advancing his music career, as he was recently signed to a record label and is recording a country album.
