People are eager to learn more about their relationship and are keeping an eye on their interactions. As the speculation grows, many are left wondering if something special is happening between these two artists.
Read on to discover new details about their relationship.
Isn’t 21 Savage already a married man?
Though it has not been confirmed, 21 Savage has been rumored to have a wife named Keyanna Joseph. The owner of a beauty company is allegedly the mother of 21’s two children.
In October 2020, 21 Savage appeared on the Big Facts podcast and discussed his relationship status. When asked about writing songs about his ex, Amber Rose, he said, “I’m happily in love. I have a family. I’m doing well.”
Were 21 Savage and Latto baecationing?
Speculation about a possible romance between Latto and 21 Savage began in 2021, around her birthday. After both artists shared separate vacation photos from Puerto Rico on Instagram, fans jumped to the conclusion that they were an item.
Since then, their followers have been eager for confirmation about their relationship status, but 21 Savage has sidestepped inquiries. In a 2022 Clubhouse session, he bluntly denied having a celebrity girlfriend.
Do 21 Savage and Latto have matching tattoos?
In January 2024, 21 Savage was seen sporting a new tattoo behind his ear that reads "Alyssa," which is Latto's real name. Meanwhile, Latto has "Sheyaa" inked in red behind her ear, which is 21's birth name.
It seems she got this tattoo in February 2023. That year, Latto talked to Cosmopolitan about her mystery man and explained why she values her privacy.
“If something is special to me, I’m going to keep it close to me because everything else has to be front and center about my life,” she told the magazine for their July/August cover. “I think we find the beauty in separation sometimes because it makes us miss each other.”
Is Latto using art to imitate her love life?
On her 2024 album Sugar Honey Ice Tea, the 25-year-old raps in "Good 2 You," “I’m a dime, and these guys are just twelve the way they try to lock me down.”
In "Settle Down," she delivers, “Put a girl to rest and chill with a savage.” Both lines seem to reference the "Redrum" rapper’s stage name. Fans are even suggesting that Latto is hinting at dating 21 Savage based on her Sims characters.
In the game, she mentioned that her sim was pregnant and having a home birth. Many fans felt that Latto was clearly trying to model the characters after herself and 21 Savage, especially after seeing the images.
We will be waiting for the day they confirm their relationship!
