‘Age of Attraction’ Star Derrick Fleming Dated ‘Crazy Plane Lady’ Tiffany Gomas

It’s a small world … TMZ has learned “Age of Attraction” star Derrick Fleming dated Tiffany Gomas — yes, the one who went viral for her 2023 airplane meltdown.

Derrick tells TMZ … they dated a bit over a year back in 2021, and she was very inspirational during that time for him … providing support for him and his family when his father passed away.

They ended on good terms and they reconnected a few times over the years, the last of which being about a year before he was cast on “Age of Attraction.”

Derrick adds he was also able to lean on her for guidance before he became a Netflix reality star. He tells us … “Before the show aired, I leaned on her for advice on how to deal with the pressure of being in the public eye and the negative press I may receive. She’s been very supportive with all this for me [and I’m] truly appreciative of that.”

TMZ reached out to Tiffany … so far, no word back.

As you know, Tiffany’s fame took flight in July 2023 when she was filmed in tears on an American Airlines flight at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport demanding to deboard because a passenger toward the back of the plane was “not real.”

Her words sparked viral theories she was spooked from seeing some unexplainable being or extraterrestrial life … but she eventually revealed she saw nothing, and it was simply a figure of speech.

She has since gone on to launch a venture with Passes — a subscription-based content creation site often compared to OnlyFans, but with no nudity. She encourages fans to “see what’s beyond the headlines” and posts lifestyle and travel content, and more.
