If you’re not a 10-year-old or the keeper of an elementary school kid, you may not be aware that a new Lion King prequel premiered in December 2024. However, I have some exciting news for all the grown women in the room: the star of said Mufasa movie, Aaron Pierre, is stupid hot. Aaron Pierre has all the girls and gays in such a chokehold that Jennifer Hudson preemptively turned off the comments on promo content for his appearance on her show. She couldn’t risk all you thirsty bitches making her comment section X-rated because of Aaron’s gorgeous, gorgeous face.

If you’re not familiar with the actor who is giving effortless lion 24/7, he’s previously starred in Rebel Ridge, Brother, Barry Jenkins’ Underground Railroad, and M. Night Shyamalan’s Old. If the attention Mr. Mans is pulling right now is any indication, now is the time to become familiar with the Hollywood star on a major come-up. Plus, THIS JUST IN: it looks like Mr. Perfect may be on his way to finding a Mrs?! Here’s everything to know about Aaron Pierre, including his dating history.

Aaron Pierre’s Dating History

Is Aaron Pierre married?

Aaron Pierre is not married (that whoosh you heard was a deep sigh of relief from women around the world). Aaron has generally remained extremely private about his love life, but the question of Aaron’s relationship status has surely been on everyone’s lips, even Kelly Clarkson’s, who got lost in Aaron’s eyes during the Mufasa cast’s visit to her couch.

Is Aaron Pierre single?

Aaron Pierre is definitely maybe not single, thanks to Teyana Taylor! At least, that’s what fans are speculating after Teyana posted several black and white photos of the pair with the caption “Oscar night in black & white, no grey area” followed by a heart. A SZA lyric?! Okay, girl, damn we get it!

Now, while that seems like a pretty clear proclamation of love, if you want to be delusional (and I do), you can still consider things unofficial until one of them comes out with the big G word or B word on main.

Is Aaron Pierre dating Teyana Taylor?

Aaron Pierre, Teyana Taylor

Following the 2025 Oscars, Aaron and Teyana were pictured hanging together at the Vanity Fair after party. They posed side by side with Niecy Nash and her wife, Jessica. Later, Teyana posted a series of coupley-looking shots from Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s Oscars bash. This sent the internet ablaze with dating rumors that may or may not be true (ugh, let me dream, okay?) but considering this would possibly be the hottest couple in history, I will salute them either way.

Is Aaron Pierre dating Lori Harvey?

No, Lori Harvey shut down fans shipping a potential romance between her and Aaron are simply dreaming. A viral TikTok suggests based on looks and vibes alone that Lori and Aaron would make a stunning couple (and would). But Lori, who truly has her pick of all the fish in the sea, responded “No thank you leave me aloneeee.” I guess her lover girl era is on pause for the moment. Lori previously had a very memorable fling with another man with a killer smile, Michael B. Jordan.
