It looks like Tyrese is gearing up for another walk down the aisle with his girlfriend, Zelie Timothy. During an Instagram Live session on January 1, the singer revealed his plans to marry Timothy once his divorce from Samantha Lee is finalized. The moment came after Zelie teased her boyfriend by saying, “He doesn’t want to marry me.”
Tyrese quickly shut down the claim, telling Zelie, “That’s not true, Babe. I’m just waiting on my divorce to be finalized so I can get into this new paperwork.” He humorously added, “You can’t get into no new paperwork until the old paper is done.”
The couple shared sweet “I love you” exchanges during the live, with Tyrese affectionately referring to them as “The Gibsons” and wishing fans a Happy New Year. He also revealed that Zelie had been sipping tequila, adding to the lighthearted vibe of their conversation.
Tyrese and Zelie began dating in 2021 after his separation from Samantha Lee, with whom he shares a daughter. Their divorce, which has been anything but private, has included heated remarks and a contentious child support battle. Tyrese recently described the legal proceedings as a fight for his “dear life,” even claiming that the judge “hates his guts.”
Despite their own share of ups and downs, including a brief breakup in 2024 over songs Tyrese wrote about his ex-wife for his album Beautiful Pain, the couple seems stronger than ever. Zelie, a prominent beauty and fashion content creator, has stood by Tyrese through his publicized struggles, and the singer seems eager to make their union official.
For now, fans will have to wait for Tyrese’s divorce to finalize before the couple can officially become “The Gibsons.” Stay tuned—this love story is far from over!
