American rapper and singer Latto has always been known for her bold lyrics, unapologetic confidence, and distinct sound. Recently, she’s been riding high on the success of her track GYATT featuring Ice Spice — but this time, it’s her love life that’s stolen the spotlight. After years of speculation and rumors, Latto has finally confirmed her relationship with 21 Savage.

The confirmation came during an interaction with TMZ on September 29, 2025, when Latto casually referred to 21 Savage as her husband. When paparazzi caught up with her in New York City, the Sugar Honey Ice Tea rapper said she was on her way “to go have this dinner with my husband.”

The comment immediately sent fans into a frenzy, as rumors about her and the A Lot rapper have swirled for years. When asked directly by the paparazzi if she was tired of being asked about “you-know-who,” Latto playfully declined to give a straight answer — instead, she laughed and repeatedly chanted, “My man, my man, my man!” confirming what fans had long suspected.

Latto and 21 Savage’s relationship rumors first started back in December 2020, when fans began noticing subtle hints about their connection. Although the couple never publicly acknowledged their romance, they were often spotted in the same cities and appeared to spend time together behind the scenes.

Their musical collaboration in March 2022 on Wheelie only added fuel to the fire, coming right after Latto’s Big Energy broke into the Billboard Hot 100’s Top 20. Fans began connecting the dots, but 21 Savage was quick to deny any romantic involvement at the time. During a Clubhouse session that same year, he said, “I don’t have a celebrity girlfriend,” attempting to shut down speculation.

Still, the rumors refused to die down — especially after eagle-eyed fans noticed a tattoo behind Latto’s ear that appeared to read “Shéyaa”, which happens to be 21 Savage’s real name, Shéyaa Bin Abraham-Joseph.

In May 2023, Hollywood Unlocked’s Jason Lee revealed that Latto’s team had contacted him after he posted a photo of the tattoo, asking him to remove it. Lee claimed they even offered money for the post to be taken down, saying, “I thought it was a fake fan playing around on my phone,” before realizing it was a representative from Latto’s team.

Despite the attempts to keep things under wraps, the couple’s connection has become harder to hide over time. Fans have spotted them sharing similar backdrops on social media and traveling together, even though they rarely appear side by side in public.

Now that Latto herself has called 21 Savage her husband, it seems the once-secretive romance is finally out in the open. While neither has revealed how long they’ve officially been together, fans are thrilled to see the two rap stars embracing their love after years of quiet speculation.
