After eight years and a child together, musician and collaborator Jhene Aiko and Big Sean are finally engaged.
“The Worst” singer showed off her diamond ring as paparazzi caught the couple leaving the GQ Men of the Year party in Los Angeles on Thursday night.
Although both parties have yet to confirm whether or not the diamond is an engagement ring, Aiko has publicly shared her desire to marry the “Beware” rapper.
Aiko recently teased Sean for not putting a rock on it during a stage performance, pointing towards her empty ring finger. The internet quickly began “bullying” Sean into proposing to his longtime partner, who he has been with since the release of their joint album, 2088in 2016.
When asked by Charlemagne The God in an August 2024 interview why he hadn’t proposed to Aiko yet, the Detroit rapper shared, “We have a crazy connection, no matter what.” , we still stick together. There’s a lot of work that we have to do.” needs to be done so we can continue.”

However, now that the couple appears to have taken the next step, fans fear the collective pressure is not a solid foundation for their promised commitment.
I love her so much and I hope it’s not the ring.. bullying someone to give someone a ring is not a flexibility.. they should do it themselves, not the truth .. it’s like a silent gift! Absolutely not

Being bullied in marriage means they won’t stay married for long.

Luckily, they already have plenty of hands-on experience in family life. In November 2022, the couple announced the arrival of their son, Noah Hasani. Aiko is already mother to teenage daughter Namiko Love, whom she shares with singer O’Ryan.
