Intrigued, the talk show host inquired further, "Did you have a second date?" To which the star of "Total Recall" responded with a simple, "No, I did not."

This admission came after Sharon opened up about her quest for love earlier in January. In an interview with The Times, the "Catwoman" actress shared a memorable experience she had with a "heroin addict" whom she met on a dating app. She recounted how this individual, "clearly 20,000 heroin injections removed from the picture he sent," showed up for their date. Upon discovering his addiction, Sharon revealed her immediate reaction: "I told the waiter, 'I'll have a glass of water.' He [her date] had a cocktail, perhaps absinthe or something similar. And I said, 'I'm sorry, I can't stay.'"

Despite her series of unfortunate romantic endeavors, Sharon remained hopeful that 2025 would bring her a special someone. She confidently declared, "This is the year that I want to fall in love — 100 percent," revealing her active participation on the dating app Tinder.

Meanwhile, Nelly has tied the knot with fellow rapper Ashanti, and the couple shares a child together. On the other hand, Sharon currently finds herself single but blessed with motherhood to three children.
