It’s been almost one and a half years since Amber Riley, aka RILEY, surprised her fans with her engagement news.

She announced her engagement to boyfriend Desean Black in late November 2020 via an Instagram post. She had posted a picture and video of themselves. In the video, she was seen admiring her fiance from behind.

Afterward, she flaunted her engagement ring. In the caption, she wrote, “There was a time when I thought I didn’t want or deserve this kind of love. I’m looking at a man who changed my mind.”

“My time by myself, loving on myself, getting comfortable with myself, prepared me for you, and prepared me for this. I am so proud to say, I am the future Mrs. Black.”

“I love you @deseanblack_official and I thank you for your patience, your friendship, and your partnership! What God has joined together, let no man separate. #HappilyEngaged #Engaged #BlackLove,” Riley further added.

The actress’s fiance made the same post with an equally sweet caption. He started with, “Fellas, when a woman looks at you like this, it’s a clear indication that you’re doing the right thing.”

“Now, when she delivers unconditional love that you’ve never experienced, it’s another clear indication that you’ve found the one. Only a fool would let someone as special as this slip away.”

In the end, Black added that he did what any wise man would do and put a ring on it. “I love you to pieces @msamberpriley, or should I say the future Mrs. Black. #happilyengaged A king will always protect his queen,” he concluded his caption.

The couple had sparked romance rumors just a month before their engagement. Distractify reports speculations about their togetherness started after Black was spotted at Riley’s performance on The Terrell Show. 

The couple made their love official sometime after the speculations started. After their relationship was confirmed, Riley posted a collage of a screenshot of her and Black’s first conversation and a cute picture of the duo via Instagram.

The first step in their conversation was taken by Riley, who had messaged Black by saying, “Hi Desean, how are you.” Black soon responded and wrote, “Hey beautiful. I’m doing great and you???”

Since then, the engaged duo has always been together and shared multiple snaps via their respective Instagram handles. However, fast forward to now, some fans have noticed that all of those pictures have been deleted.

Are Amber Riley and Desean Black still together?

After the fans of the Glee actress noticed that she and her future husband had deleted all of the pictures they had shared of each other on social media, they began to wonder if the couple was still together.

There were also questions like, “Did Amber Riley and boyfriend break up?” To those wondering the same question, the answer is: No, Riley and Black haven’t broken up, and they are still together.

There has been no news of the engaged couple calling off their engagement and walking down separate paths. Besides, she even talked a little about her relationship with her fiance during her exclusive interview with Page Six on January 25, 2022.

Additionally, Black had accompanied his partner to the premiere of Riley’s 2022 movie Single Black Female. Riley shared three pictures from that night on February 6, 2022, and her image with Black was at the end.

It indicates that Riley and Black’s relationship is still going on strong. As for why they deleted their pictures from social media, it remains unknown. Some might say the two are trying to keep their romance private.

Amber Riley and Desean Black’s relationship initiation

It has already been mentioned how Riley and Black’s first conversation started. But how did they get to know each other?

Well, Black actually didn’t know Riley before they started talking. In an interview with xoNecole on November 30, 2020, she mentioned that she first found her future fiance thanks to the same outlet – xoNecole.

She was scrolling through xoNecole, and when she saw Black’s picture, she thought, “Oh my God, he’s such a handsome man.” So, she went on to follow him on Instagram but didn’t think about it until she saw his picture again on her Instagram newsfeed.

She messaged him – the same message mentioned earlier – and the rest became history. Additionally, she had stated that her relationship with Black was “the first relationship that I’ve been in that I feel is really healthy, and I love him to pieces.”

Furthermore, in another interview with Distractify in July 2021, Riley mentioned that she met Black during the pandemic, and she was the one who made the first move.

Amber Riley on her wedding with Desean Black

In an exclusive interview with People in January 2021, Riley opened up about her wedding plans with Black. She said, “Weddings have always been absolutely fun. I’ve gone to some amazing weddings. My mother’s an event planner.”

“I’ve been a flower girl so many times. So for me, the music has to be right. You’ve got to have a bangin’ DJ. And I know so many artists. I want both a DJ and a band. You’re celebrating bringing two lives together, celebrating love, celebrating a union.”

“So the music, and the party, and the food trucks. It has to be hype. It has to be fun!” Riley added.

The American actress also stated that Black’s engagement proposal surprised her and that her fiance is a great man. “My family loves him. Obviously, I love him.”

She again turned her focus toward the wedding plans and said it was weird because they couldn’t plan anything due to the pandemic. But, she also stressed that she would marry Black in a backyard — with a wedding dress, of course.

Riley had also got candid about her wedding plans with her future husband in her above-mentioned interview with Distractify.

She first mentioned that she and her fiance are confident that they have found their “happily ever after” despite dating for a while only. As for a wedding, she said that they are taking their time.

As she went on, she stated that the couple had made plans to get married in 2022; however, the plans changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

She continued, “That’s my best friend in the whole entire world. And during the pandemic, we decided that we’re not going to pressure ourselves to figure this out. We’re going to wait until the pandemic is over, we were going to get married next year.”

In addition, Riley told the outlet that while she prefers a grand wedding, Black is going with the flow. She also said she is taking KeVita’s prebiotic shots to make her feel good, as wedding plans could be hectic.

Furthermore, in her recent interview with Page Six in January 2022, Riley mentioned that she is in no hurry to share the wedding vows with Black. “It’s probably going to be one of those things where we’re engaged for a really long time.”

“We’re in the middle of a pandemic, and it’s just, you know, there’s no rush for me, to be honest,” she further added with a laugh.

It seems like Riley’s fans would have to wait for a while before seeing the actress walk down the aisle. Let’s hope that it happens soon.

Logan Lerman Sealed the Deal with a Heartwarming Proposal

Love was in the air for Logan Lerman as the talented actor took a significant step in his personal life. After years of a blissful relationship, he finally popped the question to his longtime girlfriend, Analuisa Corrigan, in November 2023. 

The Percy Jackson star sealed the deal with a heartwarming proposal, officially taking their romance to the next level. Fans and well-wishers alike eagerly await the details of this romantic milestone as the couple prepares to embark on marital bliss.

 In this article, we delve into the captivating tale of Lerman’s proposal, their relationship, and the woman who has captured his heart.

Logan Lerman opened up about his proposal to Analusia Corrigan

Lerman recently opened up about the charming way he proposed to his longtime girlfriend, Corrigan. 

During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the 32-year-old actor shared the delightful details of how he popped the question in an unconventional yet romantic setting – a rowboat in New York City’s iconic Central Park.

He revealed that while in New York, he initially had no concrete plan for the proposal but soon realized he needed a private and intimate setting.

Corrigan, 29, pointed out the rowboats; he thought it would be a perfect idea but discovered that he lacked the necessary rowing skills.

He described how his fiancée ended up doing all the hard work, rowing the boat. At the same time, he sat back and enjoyed the scenery.

As they drew the attention of onlookers amused by the sight of Corrigan manning the oars, he bided his time until they reached a secluded part of the lake.

In that tranquil moment, surrounded by the beauty of Central Park, Lerman seized the opportunity and popped the question to his beloved. 

Despite the initial challenges, the proposal went smoothly. Lerman’s heartwarming tale beautifully captures the essence of love, spontaneity, and the willingness to embrace unexpected moments that make memories truly special.

After the heartwarming proposal in Central Park, Lerman and his fiancée, Corrigan, made a stunning red carpet appearance, celebrating their love and future together. 

On March 21, the couple graced the premiere of Hulu’s We Were the Lucky Ones in Los Angeles, radiating joy and complementing each other perfectly with their coordinated looks.

Lerman, known for his role in Bullet Train, cut a dashing figure in a sleek black overcoat and dress pants, adding a touch of sophistication with a silver silk shirt. Meanwhile, Corrigan, stunned in a chic black bandeau dress, exuding elegance and confidence.

Their red carpet debut as an engaged couple came four months after Corrigan took to Instagram to share the exciting news of Lerman’s proposal. 

In a heartfelt post, she playfully referred to her future husband as “Mrs. Logie,” accompanied by a series of endearing snapshots, including a photo booth strip capturing their loving embrace and a close-up video showcasing the exquisite engagement ring.

Lerman, clearly smitten, responded with a sweet comment, expressing his love for his “sweetie.” 

Who is Analusia Corrigan?

Lerman’s fiancée, Corrigan, is a talented artist whose journey has been shaped by her diverse cultural experiences and the unwavering support of her family. 

Growing up in San Diego, her frequent road trips to Mexico with her mother instilled in her a deep appreciation for culture, which she later incorporated into her art.

It was her father’s work with the renowned Alvin Ailey dance company in New York City that ignited a new creative spark within her. She viewed the crew as a “window to real people in real life,” an experience she didn’t have on the West Coast. 

Her parents played a pivotal role in nurturing her artistic aspirations, always ensuring that she understood the value of the arts and that being an artist was a viable career path.

Her artistic pursuits led her to enroll at the Parsons School of Design, where she initially studied oil painting but later pivoted to graphic design, realizing the challenges of succeeding in the former field. 

However, after graduation, Corrigan discovered that her true passion lay not in technology but in creating tangible works with her hands.

It was during the COVID-19 pandemic that Corrigan found her calling in ceramic art, initially selling ashtrays and mugs with unique designs. Her work explores “figurative shapes and their innate matter, language and sensation,” as described on her website. 

From lamps and mirrors to wall hangings, Corrigan’s creations are a testament to her talent and dedication.

Now displaying her art at shows and during New York City’s design week, Corrigan has garnered a steady stream of clients. She remains grateful for the opportunity to have her creations grace the intimate spaces of people’s homes. 

Logan Lerman’s relationship timeline with Analusia Corrigan

Lerman and Corrigan’s relationship timeline is a heartwarming tale of love that blossomed from a long-distance connection into a deep, lasting bond. 

The couple first sparked romance rumors in January 2020 when they were linked together. However, they kept their relationship relatively private in its early stages.

It wasn’t until August 2022 that Lerman and Corrigan made their red carpet debut as a couple at the premiere of Bullet Train, marking a significant milestone in their journey together. 

Despite the initial distance, with Corrigan residing in New York City and Lerman in Los Angeles, they found a way to make their relationship thrive.

She has provided glimpses into their life together through her Instagram account, which is primarily dedicated to showcasing her exceptional work as a ceramic artist. 

However, she occasionally shares endearing snaps of Lerman, who sometimes lends a helping hand in her studio, highlighting the supportive and collaborative nature of their partnership.

Lerman, too, has been unafraid to express his adoration for Corrigan publicly. In December 2021, he penned a heartfelt tribute on her 27th birthday, referring to her as his “best friend” and expressing his gratitude for having her in his life, making every day “better and brighter.”

Then, during one of Corrigan’s visits to Los Angeles, the lockdown occurred, leading her to extend her stay with Lerman and allowing them to strengthen their bond further.

Over the past three years, Lerman and Corrigan have embraced adventures together, exploring the world hand in hand. 

From hiking in the Pacific Northwest to immersing themselves in the beauty of Italy, their love has flourished amidst breathtaking landscapes and new experiences.

As their relationship deepened, they reached significant milestones, such as attending Lerman’s co-star Joey King’s wedding in Mallorca together in 2023. 

Their commitment culminated in Lerman’s heartwarming proposal to Corrigan in November 2023, marking the beginning of a new chapter in their enduring love story.

Leslie Fhima’s Love Life Updates Post ‘The Golden Bachelor'

Leslie Fhima captured the hearts of Bachelor Nation when she appeared on Season 1 of The Golden Bachelor. The fan-favorite contestant made it to the final few, vying for Gerry Turner’s heart, only to leave heartbroken. 

Since her emotional exit, fans have been eager to know what’s next in Fhima’s quest for love. This article provides an exclusive glimpse into Fhima’s dating life after the show, sharing the latest updates on her romantic pursuits. 

Leslie Fhima’s dating life update

Since her heartbreaking exit from The Golden Bachelor, Fhima has been focusing on various aspects of her life, leaving little room for dating and romantic pursuits.

The fan-favorite contestant admitted that she hadn’t been actively seeking out potential partners or going on dates recently. Contrary to speculation, she clarified that she’s not currently involved with anyone romantically, dismissing rumors about her new relationship.

While her dating life has taken a backseat for now, Fhima remains open to finding her perfect match when the time is right. Her experience on the reality show has taught her valuable lessons about what truly matters in a partner.

Rather than seeking someone who ticks every box on her checklist, she now prioritizes shared values, compatibility, and the potential for a deep, lasting connection.

When she does decide to dive back into the dating pool, Fhima plans to approach it with a more open mindset, focusing less on superficial traits and more on the essential qualities that foster a meaningful, lifelong partnership. 

Her ultimate goal is to find a best friend and companion to grow old with, someone who loves and accepts her family as she does theirs.

Despite the lack of dating updates, Fhima continues to receive an outpouring of support and love from her dedicated fan base, who have been rooting for her happily ever after since her time on The Golden Bachelor.

Leslie Fhima’s journey on ‘The Golden Bachelor’

Fhima’s appearance on the inaugural season of The Golden Bachelor left a lasting impression on viewers, who were instantly captivated by her positive attitude and endearing personality. 

Her connection with the lead, Gerry Turner, seemed promising, and many fans were rooting for her to emerge as the last woman standing and potentially become the next “Golden Bachelorette.”

However, despite their apparent compatibility, there was a missing element in their relationship that ultimately led to their emotional split.

Fhima, who had been convinced she would be Turner’s final choice, was left heartbroken when he decided to pursue a future with another contestant, Theresa Nist.

In the months following her departure from the show, she demonstrated remarkable resilience and growth, allowing herself to heal from the heartbreak. 

She even attended Turner and Nist’s live televised wedding alongside her fellow Golden Bachelor castmates, a testament to her ability to move forward gracefully.

Leslie Fhima’s feelings about the Golden Wedding of her season

Despite the initial heartbreak of not being the final pick, Fhima approached Turner’s televised wedding to Nist with a positive and supportive mindset. 

While the event itself wasn’t uncomfortable for her, she did feel a sense of added pressure due to the public anticipation surrounding her reactions.

As someone who had formed a close friendship with Nist during their time together on the show, she was determined to keep the focus solely on the happy couple and their special day. 

She had already achieved closure regarding her split from Turner, allowing her to attend the wedding with genuine happiness for the newlyweds.

In Leslie’s own words, she truly believes that things unfolded as they were meant to, even though it was difficult to see that perspective while she was still immersed in the experience. 

With the benefit of hindsight, she has come to accept that her connection with Turner was not meant to be a lasting one.

However, this realization hasn’t diminished her hope of finding her own forever love. In fact, she remains optimistic that she, too, will eventually find the right partner – someone with whom she can share a deep, meaningful connection and build a future together.

Leslie Fhima’s recent dating rumors 

While Fhima’s journey on The Golden Bachelor didn’t culminate in a romantic partnership, her newfound fame has opened doors to exciting experiences and encounters with notable personalities. 

One such instance garnered significant attention when she shared photos of herself meeting the renowned rapper 50 Cent at a Minnesota Timberwolves basketball game.

Her Instagram post, which featured snapshots of her, the rapper, and her family, sparked speculation among fans about a potential romantic connection between the two. 

However, Fhima was quick to clarify that the meetup was merely a thrilling opportunity to interact with a celebrity, and there was no romantic involvement whatsoever.

This wasn’t the first time she found herself at the center of dating rumors. Earlier in February, she posted a picture with a man named Greg, her pickleball partner, leading to further speculation about her relationship status. 

Once again, she addressed the rumors head-on, asserting that while she values her male friendships deeply, none of these connections are romantic.

In fact, Fhima candidly admitted that she hasn’t been actively dating recently, despite the assumptions and gossip circulating online. 

Her focus is on other aspects of her life, such as her family, friends, and personal interests, leaving little room for romantic pursuits at the moment.

Leslie Fhima’s past relationships

Fhima has been married twice. Her first marriage was to Bradley Craig Chazin in 1980, with whom she had a son named Zack. According to records, she and Chazin divorced in 1988 when she was 29 years old. 

Despite the divorce, she maintained a cordial relationship with her former father-in-law, Milton Chazin, whom she described as a positive influence in her son’s life.

Her second marriage was to David Jonathan Fhima, a restaurateur of Moroccan heritage. Leslie and David tied the knot in 1990 in Los Angeles and had two children together, Eli and Chloe. 

However, their marriage was tumultuous, with records indicating they divorced in 1994, reconciled, and then divorced again in 1998. The divorce proceedings involved disputes over child support and custody arrangements.

Apart from her marriages, she is rumored to have dated the iconic musician Prince in her late teens and early 20s. According to her son Eli, she not only dated Prince but also broke up with him to pursue her figure skating career with the Ice Follies. 

The Golden Bachelor show even claims that Prince’s song ‘Sexy Dancer’ was inspired by her, although this cannot be verified.

Then, in the late 2000s and early 2010s, Fhima was involved with an unnamed man, as evidenced by several photos on her old Instagram account where she referred to him as “my guy.” 

Fhima’s relationship history is undoubtedly complex, with multiple marriages, romantic involvements, and even a rumored connection to a music legend.
