During an interview on HOT 97 to promote her upcoming Escape Room album, Teyana Taylor touched on her relationship with British actor Aaron Pierre and why she’s keeping their romance on the low.
Taylor, 34, explained that that her handling of relationships had changed when the host Nessa asked if she was romantically involved with Pierre, 31, Essence reported.
“I think that this new world is not gentle and it’s crazy,” the K.T.S.E. singer stated. She then went ahead to say that she wanted to explore something else.
“People are praying on your downfall. What me and Aaron have is very healthy, and it’s very gentle, and it’s very soft, and it’s very kind, and it’s very sweet, and it’s very warm, and it’s one of the best feelings I ever had, and most importantly, it’s so safe,” Taylor added. “I don’t want us to be robbed of that. He’s so special to me and I’m filled with so much gratitude to have him in my life.”

The Coming 2 America star also expressed her gratitude for having Pierre in her life, adding that she intends to protect their relationship.
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.
Their separation was, however, messy as Taylor, at a certain point, asked a court to jail Shumpert for contempt on allegations that he intentionally leaked classified divorce documents to the media.
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.
