‘Someone Check on Bow Wow’: Angela Simmons Confirms Relationship with Her New Boo

It looks like Angela Simmons is no longer a single woman.

That’s right! The “Growing Up Hip Hop” star, 32, seemingly confirmed her and 33-year-old boxer Daniel “Miracle Man” Jacobs‘ romance with two sweet snaps she posted to Instagram on Saturday, Aug. 8. The pair looked quite ravishing and was dressed to the nines while on their way to a wedding.

Simmons sported a sexy, form-fitting, aqua blue dress with a high slit that was complemented with a pair of stiletto pumps. Jacobs looked just as dapper as his date and wore a tailored blue suit.

The mother of one included a reference to the two-time middleweight world champion’s career in her post with the caption “TKO.” Jacobs also re-shared a photo of him and Simmons and wrote, “Wedding vibes tonight with her.”

Simmons posted IG stories of her and her new bae holding hands while they were at the wedding. Both seemed to be gleaming and basking in their new love.

Shocked fans praised Simmons’ new relationship with Jacobs.

“Broke the internet!!!! Congrats to a beautiful couple!!!”

“Somebody check on Bow wow”

“Yessssss!!!!!!! grown women and man status🔥 love it!”

“Oh lord @shadmoss about to be sick 😂 this is beautiful 😍 congrats Angela!! You deserve it sis!”

Before the reality TV star confirmed her romance with Jacobs, people speculated she and Bow Wow were dating again.

The pair dated in their teen years, but never made it to boyfriend and girlfriend status. Both Bow Wow and Simmons admitted on the last season of “GUHH” they still had feelings for each other, but it seems “Mr. 106 & Park” didn’t make the cut.

Simmons’ last high-profile relationship was with her ex-fiancé Sutton Tennyson.

Tennyson was tragically shot and killed in Atlanta in November 2018. He and Simmons were not together at the time of his death and had called off their engagement in December 2017. They do share 3-year-old son Sutton Joseph, whom they welcomed in September 2016.

Jacobs, a cancer survivor, also appears to have a son from a prior relationship.

Simmons and Jacobs are clearly happy with each other and it’s safe to say Simmons is “glowing” from love.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

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.
