If Aaron Pierre isn’t your celeb crush or at least one of your celeb crushes, I don’t trust you. The Mufasa: The Lion King star is so hot, it should be illegal. Like, he actually looks AI-designed. And yet, this magnificent British man is very real and… seemingly very taken. It looks like Aaron is dating R&B icon Teyana Taylor, based on the singer’s latest Insta post!! This is the most important news of the week, the month, and probably the year. While I’m deeply depressed that I officially have no chance with this king (that has realistically always been the case), it does warm my heart when when stupid hot, talented, and successful people find each other and fall in love. So, are Aaron Pierre and Teyana Taylor officially dating? Let’s discuss this boiling hot tea.
Teyana Taylor And Aaron Pierre Dating Rumors, Explained
Teyana Taylor Shared Instagram Photos With Aaron Pierre
Teyana and Aaron appeared to have a date night at a 2025 Oscars party on March 2. In an Insta post (a grid post!!), the “We Got Love” singer shared a series of stunning black and white photos of her and Aaron posing together at (what I’m pretty sure is) Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s Oscar Gold Party. “Iconic” is an understatement.
In the couple-y pics, Teyana looks hot AF in a dark backless gown, and Aaron looks like a god in his black tuxedo, white bowtie, and wire-rimmed glasses. They’re literally pressing their backs against each other in the last photo, soo yeah, it’s giving official relationship announcement. “Oscar night in black & white,” Teyana captioned the post. “No grey area.”
JT from City Girls got straight to the point in the comments section: “Sis y’all together? Please confirm!” Queen, thank you for your service. And she wasn’t the only artist obsessing over these two in the comments. SZA gushed over the photos, writing that Teyana and Aaron look “fine and feline in the most mysterious way.” She added, “Giving lion and lionesss.” I have to agree.
Aaron’s previously kept his personal life very private — there was a rumor that he was dating Lori Harvey (literally just because people on TikTok thought they’d look gorge together), but Lori swiftly shut that down, writing: “No thank you leave me aloneeee.” Girlie, that’s the kind of rumor you just go with.
Teyana was previously married to basketball player Iman Shumpert and shares two daughters with him. The singer and the athlete exchanged vows in 2016, and Teyana filed for divorce in 2023. “We are still the best of friends, great business partners and are one hell of a team when it comes to co-parenting our 2 beautiful children,” she wrote on Instagram at the time.
Congrats to Tey-ron!
