Simple, bold, and very clear: “My man is outside.” ... quickly started making its rounds, with fans celebrating how confidently the couple is stepping into the spotlight together.
From Subtle to Soft Launch No More
While August has always been intensely private about his personal life, this latest wave of posts feels different. The couple has not only been sharing public appearances but also more intimate, everyday moments.
Zu and August posted photos of themselves getting ready together, including snapshots of them coming out of the shower and dressing side by side.

Across social media, people described the pair as “couple goals,” praising their chemistry, confidence, and the way they seem genuinely comfortable with each other. Others applauded August for embracing his happiness publicly, particularly in a genre where artists have not always felt safe being fully themselves.
