MTO News learned that Amber Riley, an actress and singer, ended her engagement to DeSean Black just weeks before they planned to walk down the aisle.
Speaking with the Nice & Neat podcast, the Single Black Female star opened up about her relationship status and said she’s available for romance.
“I am a single Black female,” she revealed. “I am, but I’m not a crazy one like in the movie.”
This is a surprising revelation considering Amber was engaged to DeSean back in 2020.
“I’m recently single,” she added, noting that their breakup was amicable. “I wish him the best. I don’t have anything horrible or bad to say.”
Amber wrote in an Instagram post about how she came to terms with Black after almost giving-up on love.
“There was a time when I thought I didn’t want or deserve this kind of love. I’m looking at a man who changed my mind,” she wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post. “My time by myself, loving on myself, getting comfortable with myself, prepared me for you, and prepared me for this.”
DeSean returned the love on his page with a repost of the same picture: “Fellas, when a woman looks at you like this, it’s a clear indication that you’re doing the right thing,” he wrote. “Now, when she delivers unconditional love that you’ve never experienced, it’s another clear indication that you’ve found the one. It would be foolish to let someone as special as her go. So I did what any wise man would do and put a ring on it.”
