Deion Sanders and Karrueche Tran have been surrounded by dating rumors for many weeks. The biggest story around this happened when Tran was spotted teary-eyed in the hospital room, as she held Deion’s hand while the staff wheeled him to the operating room for his cancer surgery. This was solid proof for a lot of people to start declaring them as a couple. It grabbed headlines when Tran gushed about her dating life. She admitted coyly. “Yeah, I’m dating. If I wasn’t having fun. I wouldn’t be in it.”

Although no names were spilled, fans were pretty quick to put two and two together. Meanwhile, Coach Prime had always been tight-lipped around this story. But his latest major activity has proved what the fans have been speculating all along. On Sunday, Tran posted an Instagram Carousel post, clad in a monotone red gown with a beautiful off shoulder silhouette, as she held an award given to her by Black Beauty Roster (BBR) for her brand Ruechi Beauty. “@blackbeautyroster THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! I am so grateful for this acknowledgment.” This was the beginning of her caption which was further followed by a detailed acknowledgment of how proud she feels for getting this award.

Prime Time commented on his rumored girlfriend’s Instagram post. “Beautiful & Classy, one of my Favorite colors,” It’s the first time he has commented on Tran’s photo, fueling further romance speculations. Tran’s brand works for inclusivity and visibility in the beauty industry, along with championing for black businesses. For her efforts to propel these goals through her brand, Black Beauty Roster awarded her the honor for her sustained efforts. She further wrote. “Thank you for highlighting and supporting @ruechibeauty! Thank you for pushing for inclusivity and visibility in the beauty industry and championing for black businesses.”

Her quest to build Ruechibeauty was more than providing an assorted collection of self-care goodies. It was rooted in self-love. “I didn’t want to start making products just to be another celebrity skincare brand. I wanted to focus on a few items that I authentically use myself,” she told EBONY. Moreover, ‘Ruechibeauty’s’ backend process is led by an all-female team. Her desire to create a self-care beauty brand sprang from her wellness journey. Complete with spiritually, mentally, and physically discovering herself, she figured out that she could channel her passion for wellness into her own beauty wellness brand.

Karrueche Tran spills the tea on her dating life

In a podcast with ‘What’s Next with J.Ryan,’ Karrueche Tran spilled the beans on her dating life. The Sanders-Tran rumored romantic storyline hit a new climax, as ‘The Chi’ actress gushed about her love life. “I’m at a point in my life, like, I know what I want. I’ve dated a lot. I’ve done a lot. I’ve did this, did that. Young, old. And, so, if I wasn’t happy and content, and feeling good in my situation, I’m not wasting my time,” she added.

Before her podcast appearance, she had been quiet about her dating life. So, naturally, she did not name her love interest on the podcast. But the mystery man does not appear to be as mysterious. All the clues and rumored scoops point straight to Prime. And fans have been connecting the dots for a while now.

A couple of days earlier as well, Prime Times’s personal assistant, Tysha Stewart, hinted at a subtle sign about the speculations mulling over by the fan base over the past few months. She dropped a heart emoji on Tran’s Instagram post. Stewart is on Sanders’ inner circle, and has been working with him for over four years. She runs her own premier events company and further designed Sanders’ locker room last year. So, their friendship runs pretty deep. Can Tysha’s comment be interpreted as a subtle nod to the speculations?
