Lashana Lynch is one of Hollywood's most talented actresses, known for her diverse roles in some of the industry's hit films. She plays the machete-wielding bodyguard in "The Woman King," a gravity-defying superspy in "No Time To Die," and a pro fighter pilot in "Captain Marvel."

Most of the films she has appeared in are physically demanding and action-oriented. However, she has also taken on roles that have helped her showcase her singing prowess, a talent many fans did not know she possessed.

She has remained quiet about whether she has a husband or is dating. However, she has always been vocal about a fellow actor, Damola Adelaja, and now, fans are left wondering whether the two are just good friends or if there is something more between them.

Over the years, the actress has made numerous posts about the actor, expressing her love for him. She often praises him for being the "kick up the backside" when she needed it and being her truth-teller.

She has also thanked him numerous times for being there through her highs and lows and helping her become a better human being. In 2012, she posted a photo of them hugging with the caption: "I love my boy @damola2000. He's a don in more ways than one!"

And Adelaja, who stars in "Y Syrcas" and "Rag Tag," has always reacted warmly to the posts. Still, their relationship status remains unclear. While the actress often uses the hashtag #love, she also uses #friends, which could translate to the two being only friends.

Lashana Lynch Played a Queer Icon in 'Matilda the Musical'

In 2022, Lynch took on the role of iconic school teacher Miss Honey in "Matilda the Musical." While she thought nothing of her role as a queer teacher, the reaction from her audiences made her realize the kind of queer awakening she had portrayed.

Nevertheless, Lynch believes that the role speaks to people of all kinds, races, sexes, and sexual orientations. According to Distractify, Lynch's appearance in "Captain Marvel" sparked speculation about whether or not the actress was a lesbian.

Starring as a best friend to Brie Larson's Carol Danvers in the superhero movie where the eponymous protagonist has no male love interest pushed fans to believe Lynch's character was in love with Larson's character.

Now, her audiences are wondering whether the actress is a lesbian or is married to a man. However, this will not be the first time people have suspected her of being a lesbian.

Since the actress, who stars alongside Rami Malek and Daniel Craig in "No Time To Die," was rumored to be the new 007 in the James Bond movies, where she plays a Black lesbian secret agent, people have questioned her sexuality even more.

Some LGBTQ publications have labeled her and her characters lesbian, but whether she is one remains unconfirmed. And while it remains unclear whether or not she is one, or even the details surrounding her personal life, what is undeniable is that she advocates for the queer community.
