After months of whispers and speculation, singer Teyana Taylor and Aaron Pierre have officially confirmed their relationship, delighting fans with a public display of affection that has since gone viral across social media.
The moment came during Pierre’s 31st birthday celebration, when Taylor surprised him with a party, and sealed the occasion with a kiss.
A video from the evening, now circulating widely online, captures the couple embracing and sharing a tender moment, putting an end to persistent rumors about the nature of their connection.
Taylor, 34, further fueled excitement by posting a series of affectionate photos with Pierre on Instagram. She paired the images with a heartfelt birthday message for the “Mufasa” star:
“Cheers to Thirty-WON & many more wins around the sun. 🌹 H‘AP’PY BIRTHDAY Woody 🎈.” Pierre responded in the comments, “Now and always. Thank you Tey. 🌹,” offering fans a glimpse into their close bond.
Speculation about the pair’s relationship had swirled for months, with Taylor and Pierre seen together on multiple occasions but consistently opting to keep their private lives under wraps. The couple’s silence only added to the intrigue—until the birthday party video made their romance official.
The relationship reveal comes at a significant moment in Taylor’s career. Just days before the public confirmation, she released her latest single, “Long Time,” on June 4.
The song’s music video, in which Pierre appears as her love interest and protector, has been widely interpreted as an artistic reflection of Taylor’s personal journey toward healing and new beginnings.
In the video, Taylor portrays a woman breaking free from a toxic relationship, with Pierre’s character symbolizing hope and redemption.
Taylor’s romantic life has often been in the spotlight. Before her relationship with Pierre, she was married to NBA player Iman Shumpert for seven years.
The couple, who share two daughters, Junie and Rue, finalized their divorce in early 2023. Despite the split, Taylor has described their relationship as amicable, emphasizing their continued partnership as co-parents and “best friends.”
Amid her new romance, Taylor is preparing for her musical comeback. The “Bare Wit Me” singer recently announced the upcoming release of her fourth studio album, “Escape Room” her first major project since 2020’s “The Album.”
Scheduled for August 2025, “Escape Room” promises to be a visual album, showcasing both Taylor’s creative evolution and her resilience after a five-year hiatus.
