According to NY Daily News, Kerry Washington and her new husband, Nnamdi Asomugha, started dating a few years ago after he and a mutual friend of theirs went to see Kerry on Broadway in “Race,” we are reliable informed. Kerry told Nnamdi that she didn’t date athletes, and he told her he didn’t date actresses, but they got together anyway. Nnamdi, a four-time All-Pro cornerback, is entering his 11th NFL season, his first with the 49ers. He was the highest-paid defensive back in the league’s history when he was signed to the Eagles with $60 million contract.
