Latto, born Alyssa Michelle Stephens, is a rapper and singer. She is used to being in the spotlight and sometimes shares her life on social media, including being an appreciative and loyal girlfriend to a man whose privacy she guards closely.

The rapper collaborated with 21 Savage on her debut album, and dating rumors have followed them for most of her career. Though there have been speculations, they remain friends, and he appeared on her track "Wheelie" in 2022.

Latto Is Not a Jealous Girlfriend

While Latto has looked into the audience to see her man, her "privacy is more important." Though he has surprised her at shows in the past, she does not want people to put "two and two together." The couple finds the "beauty in separation" as they miss each other. On jealousy, she said:

"We trust each other. When he's at home, like now, he's probably gambling with his friends. I let him do him. We've built that trust, and I think people will probably be caught off guard or shocked at who I am in a relationship versus my public persona."

The Atlanta-born rapper has known her mystery boyfriend since she was a teenager, and this is the longest relationship she has been in. However, she plans on keeping his identity secret for as long as possible.

In June 2023, she thanked her boyfriend and showed her mama love during her speech as she won the BET Best Female Hip Hop Artist award. Her cute inflection on her man got the remix treatment on TikTok and became a viral trend.

The rumors surrounding Latto and 21 Savage began in December 2020.

At the beginning of 2023, she shared in a radio interview, "When he's yours, you can go crazy." She explained how she has the Lamborghini, Birkins, "the heart," and does not pay bills.

Speculation Surrounding Latto's Boyfriend and Ongoing Dating Rumors with 21 Savage

Latto's boyfriend cleans the bone when she cooks for him. Speculation, if that man is 21 Savage, once clogged her comments on TikTok after preparing Sunday soul food. One asked, "Did she say she's with 21 ??" to which the star responded, "No, I've said I'm not plenty [of] times."

Yet the notion that she is dating 21 Savage, who is married, persists. "One thing Latto gone do is talk about her MARRIED boyfriend. Embarrassing," one tweeted in March 2023.

"Latto and this married boyfriend of hers. Chile, the bar is under the ground," a person said. Another theorized that one-day Latto would realize that the bags and cars her "married man" buys her do not matter.

21 Savage Denies Being Latto's Boyfriend

The rumors surrounding Latto and 21 Savage began in December 2020 when they seemingly posted social media snaps from the exact location.

In March 2021, Savage briefly had a photo of Latto shopping that was also on her feed on Instagram Stories, in which he called her "fine" and his "twin" on Instagram Stories.

The pair have consistently attended each other's birthday parties, and Savage's shadow is believed to be in one of her vacation photos. Latto had gotten a tattoo of "Sheyaa" behind her ear in scarlet ink. Savage's government name is Sheyaa Bin Abraham-Joseph.

21 Savage seemed to shut down the rumors in December 2022 when he said he does not have a "celebrity girlfriend" and is a happily married man. He was also reportedly spotted on a date night with Keyanna Joseph in May 2023. The woman is believed to be his wife.
