Who Is Lupita Nyong’o Dating? Actress Says She’s ‘Lucky’ To Be In A Romantic Relationship Again

by

As an ardent fan, I must say that Lupita Nyong’o‘s journey through love and life is nothing short of captivating. Her unique approach to relationships, whether it be with her beloved feline companion Yoyo or her past romantic partners, showcases a depth and vulnerability that resonates deeply with me.

In an interview with Harper Bazaar UK on October 9th, Lupita Nyong’o discussed her current relationship situation. While not in a traditional romantic relationship, the actress expressed gratitude for having a special bond with her cherished pet cat. Previously dating Joshua Jackson, Nyong’o declared herself single, but made it clear that she feels fortunate to share her life with her feline companion, Yoyo.

She expressed that her affection for her cat is unique, and any future romantic involvement would be due to him. The Emmy-winning actress was prepared to close the doors to her heart, but it was Yoyo who managed to create a tiny opening. She adopted her cat following her split with Selema Masekela in October 2023.

At approximately the same period, there were whispers of her dating Jackson following their mutual attendance at a concert in Los Angeles. It’s worth mentioning that he had parted ways with his then-wife Jodie Turner-Smith due to “irreconcilable differences” around the same time. Since the rumors began, they have been seen looking affectionate on various occasions.

It appears they enjoyed a romantic weekend in Mexico over March, marked by Nyong’o’s birthday celebrations. However, their relationship proved to be brief. Rumors of their separation intensified when the Fringe actor was seen socializing with model Nastassja Roberts in New York City during September.

The actress chose not to mention her past relationship with Jackson, but during an interview, she discussed her split with musician and sports commentator Masekela. In reflecting upon their breakup, she said, “You go through a lot of questions like, ‘Why? What were the indicators I missed? Why didn’t I recognize them when they were there? And if I did, why didn’t I take action?'” to the media outlet.

Lupita Nyong’o shared that when contemplating a past relationship, concerns she had previously disregarded would resurface, causing her to question herself. For example, “Why didn’t I address it then?” However, dwelling on a failed relationship that involves two individuals can be harmful as the past cannot be repaired. Instead, she stated, it offers a chance for self-discovery.

When she revealed her split from Masekela, she felt it was crucial to be truthful with everyone since going through a break-up privately can already be challenging enough. As she put it, when your relationship with someone else has been publicly portrayed, it makes the healing process lengthier because the memory of that relationship is deeply etched in the public eye.
