It appears Teyana Taylor is head over heels for her beau, Aaron Pierre, as she described the 31-year-old British actor as her “prize” and “apple pie.”
Taylor, 34, touched on her relationship with her boyfriend during a recent appearance on Sherri, Vibe reported. When the host, on a lighter note, stated that Pierre was “our fantasy,” Taylor chimed in, saying, “Luther said, ‘Never too much,’” and then jokingly sang. “Never too much apple pie,” Taylor added.
The Gonna Love Me singer also admitted that she was feeling good. “It feels good to feel good,” she said before advising single women looking for love.
“I think the most important thing is— no matter where you come from, whether it’s a heartbreak or whatever, I think the best thing is to be willing to love unarmored,” Taylor said. “If you’re willing to come with a wall built, it’ll block your blessings, and who that [new] person may not be what that [old] person was.”
Taylor touched on her approach toward love, saying that she walks a “straight line unarmored and I walk a straight line ready to receive whatever is mine to hold.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Taylor, who is also an actress, touched on her latest movie, One Battle After Another, and the fiery sex scenes with her co-star Leonardo DiCaprio, per Vibe. But the Coming 2 America star made it known that she was just doing her job, and there were no strings attached.
“Babe, did you see my apple pie? My eyes is on my prize!” Taylor said about her beau Pierre. Shepherd also lauded the 34-year-old for being committed to Pierre.
“When I step on set, I’m here to do a job. I’m a team player. We’re all players on this team and we’re here to win. We’re here to make magic. [It’s like] when the whistle blows, it’s time to get to work and I get to work. Then, I go my a** home,” Taylor explained.
She added: “When we know what the prize is, we’re not worried about if anybody is stepping outside of that prize tryna look for another one. We’re not worried about that. I have a very secure support system, and so does he, and I think that’s all it’s about. Understanding that this is work and this is love.”
As previously reported by Face2Face Africa, Taylor filed for divorce from her ex-husband, Iman Shumpert, in January 2023. The former couple, who married in 2016 and share two daughters, finalized their separation the following year.
Taylor eventually went Instagram official with her new beau, Pierre, on his 31st birthday in an Instagram post.
“Cheers to Thirty-WON & many more wins around the sun,” she captioned in the June 7 post alongside two photos of them. “H”AP”PY BIRTHDAY Woody.”
“Now and always. Thank you Tey,” Pierre responded.
