Lizzo<\/strong><\/a> has been opening up more than ever about her personal life\u2014and her relationship with boyfriend Myke Wright<\/strong><\/a> has been part of that journey. After sparking dating rumors in 2021, Lizzo confirmed she was in a relationship in April 2022, and the couple made their red carpet debut just a few months later. Since then, they\u2019ve kept things relatively private while continuing to show support for each other, building a strong and lasting bond.<\/p>\n

More recently, Lizzo has made headlines for candidly opening up about her personal experiences, while also sharing glimpses of her relationship\u2014revealing just how meaningful her connection with Myke has become.<\/p>\n

Find out everything to know about Myke and his relationship with Lizzo below.<\/p>\n

He Is a Detroit Native<\/h2>\n

Myke hails from the city of Detroit, Michigan. His parents fostered his artistic side and enrolled him in \u201cActing camps, guitar lessons, art exhibits and live performances\u201d during his upbringing, according to VoyageLA<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

In high school, Myke and three friends formed an all-Black band called The Grey Level. Later, he formed an alternative hip hop group called Phresh Heir. \u201cWe didn\u2019t feel like our music was black or white,\u201d he told the outlet. \u201cOur music was a mix of everything we liked and had fun sharing with people. It was authentic and people connected with it.\u201d<\/p>\n

He Moved to L.A. for Comedy<\/h2>\n

In 2012, Myke decided to take a chance and move from his hometown to the bright lights of Los Angeles to dip his toe in the comedy world. \u201cIt felt good to be a beginner again, in a new city, far from anything recognizable,\u201d Myke explained to VoyageLA<\/em>. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of room for creativity, exploration and imagination.\u201d<\/p>\n

His standup routines landed him a bit of a following and performances on Adam Devine\u2019s House Party<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Laughs<\/em>. \u201cThere\u2019s no better feeling than to smile out into a sea of thousands of people and see they\u2019re all smiling back to you,\u201d he told the news source. The stage experience would also lead to acting parts in such projects as How to Be a Grown Up<\/em>,\u00a0Doubting Thomas<\/em>, and the short Tell Me What You Know About Cyrus.<\/em><\/p>\n

He also co-created and starred in the animated series The Jellies!<\/em> alongside Tyler, the Creator<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

He Is Also a Designer<\/h2>\n

In addition to his work in entertainment, Myke has built a career in design. He has contributed to the Detroit-based luxury clothing brand EMLE and later launched his own venture, \u00fcmi\u2014a design and innovation company focused on improving quality of life through products and experiences.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy mother would always tell me, \u2018Make your life more than just long,\u2019\u201d Myke told VoyageLA. \u201cI really took that to heart. \u00fcmi is about getting the brightest minds together and forming material solutions for the problems humans face.\u201d<\/p>\n

He Met Lizzo Years Before They Started Dating<\/h2>\n

Myke and Lizzo first met in 2016 when they were hired to co-host MTV\u2019s music series Wonderland<\/em>. Years later, in 2021, the pair sparked romance rumors after being spotted out together in Beverly Hills.<\/p>\n

By April 2022, Lizzo confirmed their relationship during an appearance on SiriusXM\u2019s Radio Andy<\/a><\/em>, telling Andy Cohen<\/strong> <\/span><\/span>that her fame doesn\u2019t affect her dating life. \u201cIf you have the right person, no, not at all,\u201d she said. \u201cIt is not even a factor. It should be mutually supportive no matter what that person does.\u201d<\/p>\n

The singer has since shared more insight into her personal journey, revealing she didn\u2019t lose her virginity until 2020, after achieving a long-held goal of winning a Grammy. \u201cI was a late bloomer,\u201d Lizzo said on the Friends Keep Secrets<\/a><\/em> podcast, admitting she \u201clied about it for a long time\u201d due to embarrassment.<\/p>\n

She also credited her relationship with Myke for changing her perspective on intimacy. \u201cI don\u2019t like tonguing or swapping of spit,\u201d Lizzo admitted, adding, \u201cThe only person I like it with is my man.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
