Apart from this baseless rumor, Jalen Williams hasn’t been involved and isn’t in any romantic relationship. Even if he is, the OKC youngster has done a brilliant job in hiding the same, as he hasn’t mentioned the topic in public or dropped any hints whatsoever.
Jalen’s a lot like his peers – his private life is to his own and no one else. And guess what – it’s so well kept that even the Pentagon would give access easier than this. But do you blame him? Even a rumor got him and India Love in the spotlight like such.
