What is Karlie Redd’s age? Love & Hip Hop Atlanta star hides true birthday like a murder weapon

Karlie Redd’s age is, to borrow a phrase from VH1 itself, one of the great American mysteries. Karlie maintains that she’s around 30, but at least two of her Love and Hip Hop Atlanta co-stars claim she’s much older than that. And, depending on whom you ask, there are easily three or four different answers to this question; the internet is nothing if not a fickle oracle.

For starters, one of the most problematic answers to the question of Karlie Redd’s age comes by simply typing “How old is Karlie Redd?” into Google. One of the first answers you’ll get comes from NetWorth.com, which alleges–with no proof to back up the allegation–that Karlie Redd is 48 years old. To which we can only say: come on, now. 48? That number seems high even if Karlie’s shaving four or five years off of her actual age.

Likewise, FamousBirthdays.com says, straight up, that Karlie Redd’s birthday is April 15th, 1978, which would mean that she just turned 38. That number does seem more reasonable; again, though, there’s no proof of it on the actual site.

It’s also worth pointing out that a Hollywood Life article following the Love and Hip Hop Atlanta 2012 reunion special sites a source which claimed that Karlie was “almost 50.” During that same news cycle, GossipOnThis did some digging and reported a pair of different figures: one reporter posited that Karlie was actually 47 years old (remember, this is back in 2012) and another said she was really born in 1971, which would have made Karlie approximately 41 at the time.

One estimate that might actually be a bit closer to reality comes from VH1. As the network pointed out in a LHHATL Season 4 feature article, Karlie actually appeared on the second season of Scream Queens back in 2010. While on the show, Karlie told viewers that she was 29 years old, which you can see clearly in the screencap above. If Karlie Redd’s age was 29 in 2010, she is either 34 or 35 during Love and Hip Hop Atlanta Season 5. And, while that doesn’t answer every question raised by Benzino, who alleged that Karlie’s daughter is already out of high school, it’s the guess that at least has the strongest basis in reality–even if that reality might be based on a little white lie from Karlie Redd herself.
