Teyana Taylor is stepping into her soft girl era with no hesitation. The multi-hyphenate artist, fresh off a high-profile divorce, has officially unveiled her new love—British actor Aaron Pierre. The pair made their relationship Instagram-official after attending the 2025 Oscars together, sending social media into a frenzy.
Taylor, 34, shared a stunning black-and-white photo carousel of the couple, writing, “Oscar night in black & white, no grey area. 🤍” The snaps exuded effortless chemistry—one shot captured them standing face to face, eyes locked, while another showed them leaning back-to-back as if signaling they’ve got each other’s backs.
For fans who have followed Taylor’s journey, this moment feels like a rebirth. After her nearly decade-long marriage to former NBA player Iman Shumpert ended in 2023, Taylor made it clear that she was focused on healing, raising her two daughters, and stepping into new opportunities in Hollywood. The divorce, though amicable, was a public shift for the once inseparable duo, who had been seen as #CoupleGoals for years.
Enter Aaron Pierre, the 30-year-old rising star known for his role in Mufasa: The Lion King. Unlike Taylor, Pierre doesn’t have children, making this relationship a fresh dynamic for both. While Taylor’s world revolves around her daughters, it’s evident that Pierre is embracing her as the powerhouse woman—and mother—that she is.

Whether it’s music, film, or love, she does everything on her terms. And judging by the Oscar-night glow, Pierre is more than happy to be along for the ride.
One thing’s for sure—Teyana Taylor is done playing small, and this hard launch is proof that she’s stepping boldly into her next chapter.
