"I’m doing what I love, and I’m in love with life," she said to People magazine when asked if she was in love with someone at the moment. "There is not one person that I’m in love with, but I’m in love with everybody," she declared, admitting that she is focusing on herself and her professional career.

"I love my freedom," she explained. "I love being alive, having options in my life, and being surrounded by beautiful things, great people, and wonderful opportunities," she revealed to the publication.

The pair tied the knot in 2015 in Buffalo, New York, after first meeting in Egypt while being on a cruise across the Nile River. “I wasn’t looking for anything,” she said to Madame Noire in 2015. “He happened to be traveling alone and happened to know who I was but wasn’t a super fan."
