READ TIME: 2 MIN.

The prison inmate who claims to have been Aaron Hernandez's prison lover is speaking out about their relationship, claiming the "former football star was his 'right hand man' and that they 'did everything together."

"In an upcoming special airing on the REELZ channel, Kyle Kennedy, who allegedly shared a cell with 27-year-old Hernandez at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center in Lancaster, Mass., says the late New England Patriots tight end was 'the most [loyal] person I've ever met,'" The special, called "Aaron Hernandez: Jailhouse Lover Tells All" airs on July 5.

In the interview, Kennedy claims that "the football star told him that he was guilty of the deaths of Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado in 2012," reports the Daily Mail.

Kennedy, incarcerated for armed robbery, also claims their sexual relationship began when they met at the Souza-Baranowski Correctional Center in Lancaster, Massachusetts, saying that they had sex "once or twice a week, whenever there was a good opportunity," he says in the interview.

Kennedy described himself as a "regular kid that grew up and I got sidetracked by drugs and gangs."

And he described that he and Hernandez would "lock in to either cook food or smoke, get high, listen to music, just chill when we didn't want to be around other people.

"We used to write letters back and forth to each other all day," he added.

And also claimed that the pair sold and used drugs regularly.

"We sold drugs every day, we did drugs every day," he said.

"Hernandez was convicted of one killing in 2015 over the death of Odin Lloyd, a semi-professional football player who was dating the sister of Hernandez's fiancee," wrote the Daily Mail.

He was serving a life sentence for the murder when he was acquitted of murdering Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado in 2012 after a confrontation at a nightclub.

Despite being acquitted, he took his own life five days later in prison aged 27 in April 2017.
