August Alsina & His Boo Spark Engagement Rumors … After Matching Rings At Black Gay Pride!
August Alsina has never been shy about living in his truth — and now he’s sparking major speculation about his relationship status after he and his rumored boyfriend stepped out during Black Gay Pride weekend. The two not only hosted an event together but also posted pics online rocking matching rings.
Hosting Pride Weekend
August and his partner were front and center over Labor Day weekend, hosting one of the biggest Pride celebrations of the season. The couple looked completely at ease, laughing, dancing, and taking photos as a unit. But while their vibe was already couple-goals, it was the rings that got everybody talking.
Matching Rings Fuel Engagement Talk
Social media went into overdrive when photos surfaced of August and his man wearing matching bands on their ring fingers. Fans immediately began speculating that the pair had either secretly gotten engaged or were publicly declaring their commitment to each other.
One insider told Media Take Out: “They’ve been close for a while now, but this is the first time they’ve shown off rings. People are definitely whispering.”
From Jada’s “Entanglement” To Pride Rings
Of course, August Alsina’s love life has been messy before. Fans still remember the explosive “entanglement” scandalwith Jada Pinkett Smith that nearly broke the internet.
Back in the mid-2010s, August was in his mid-20s and going through a serious mental health struggle. He was also very close with Jaden Smith, who introduced August to his mom, Jada, hoping she could help the young singer.
But instead of just offering support, Jada began a romantic relationship with August — while still married to Will Smith. The situation blew up in 2020 when Jada admitted to the “entanglement” on Red Table Talk, leaving both Hollywood and social media gagging.
Now years later, August has clearly moved on — and this time, he’s embracing love openly and on his own terms.

A New Chapter
In 2022, August shocked fans again when he introduced his boyfriend on the season finale of The Surreal Life. For the first time, the singer, known for hits like “I Luv This Sht”* and “No Love”, told the world that he was ready to live authentically.
Since then, he and his partner have kept their romance relatively low-key … until Pride weekend, when the rings made it clear they’re not hiding anything anymore.
Final Word
From Jada’s scandalous entanglement to flashing matching rings with his current boo, August Alsina has lived one of the wildest romantic timelines in R&B. Whether the bands mean an official engagement or just a sign of commitment, one thing is clear: August is in love and unbothered.
This Pride weekend wasn’t just about partying — it was August’s way of saying his story has turned a page. After years of drama, heartbreak, and healing, he’s writing his own happy ending.
