‘Marry That Man!’: Toya Wright’s Romantic Picture With Her Boo Sends Fans Head Over Heels

T.I. & Tiny: Friends and Family Hustle” star Toya Wright appears to be in love more than ever before.

The television personality has been managing to keep her love life with her longtime companion Robert “Red” Rushing under wraps for months, but it seems she may be ready to share more of their relationship with the world. She took to her Instagram on Wednesday and posted an intimate photo of them locking lips on the top of a Mayan pyramid in Cobá, Mexico, where she’s apparently vacationing.

Rushing hovered over Wright, grabbing her by the waist and arm while seemingly kissing her.

“Views from the top of Cobá ruins❤️,” she wrote in her caption.

Her post received hundreds of compliments from fans who spouted over their love.

“Get it Toya boo! Team Wright and Rushing’s wedding coming soon. I hope! 🤞🏾🤞🏾 Love y’all!!😍😍.”

“😻 #blacklove awwwww I love you guys relationship ❤️.”

“I love u guys as a couple.. go ahead the marry that man.. u can tell he’s a real one..😘.”

“Girl you better marry that man. He brings out the best of you. Love seeing you happy after so much pain 😘.”

On season one of “Friends and Family Hustle,” Wright ostensibly indicated that she wanted to keep her relationship with Rushing under the radar after her prior publicity-surrounded marriages with rapper Lil Wayne, whom she divorced in 2006 and shares 20-year-old daughter Reginae Carter with, and music producer Mickey ‘‘Memphitz’’ Wright, whom she divorced in 2016.

The 36-year-old and Rushing, who’s the owner of 2 Commas clothing brand, first began dating in 2017 and welcomed their baby girl Reign Rushing into the world on Feb. 8, 2018. It was rumored the couple had gotten married, but Wright confirmed this season on “Friends and Family Hustle” that she and her partner are apparently holding off on marriage for the time being and focusing on their business ventures together such as their upcoming Weight No More 5K walk they have planned in Shreveport, Louisiana, next month.

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.
