Speaking of the 33-year-old mother of two, she recently graced the cover of InStyle Magazine for their upcoming April 2019 cover. In the issue, she opened up about her marriage with long-time husband Russell Wilson after ending her tumultuous relationship with rapper Future in 2014.

“If you want to get somewhere in life, you’ve got to have a compass. You’ve got to know where you really want to get to,” the singer said. “And my heart, soul, spirit, and mind just desired to be loved. To be truly loved the right way. I knew I didn’t want to cry tears of hurt anymore.”

She continued saying that Wilson who she tied the knot with in 2016, was her “safe” haven.

“He’s my sounding board for pretty much everything I do in my life,” she said. “He doesn’t want to see me fail. He’s got my back. That’s an awesome feeling.”

The couple share 1-year-old daughter Sienna Wilson and 4-year-old Future Zahir from her previous relationship with Future.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
