AceShowbiz - Lizzo isn't going to have a wandering eye amid her romance with Myke Wright. Having dated the stand-up comedian for about a year now, the Grammy Award-winning artist has rebuffed her potential suitors.
Stopping by "The Howard Stern Show" on Monday, December 12, the 34-year-old was asked where her romantic life is right now "so men out there know whether they should waste their time going after" her. "Listen, don't waster your time, honey," she said to anyone in the quest for her heart, adding, "I am very much in love with Myke. Absolutely, 100 hundred percent."
Detailing how their relationship started, the "Juice" hitmaker revealed she fell in love with Myke after years of feeling "sexual tension." She explained, "So in the past, we were friends. I had a lot of s**t to do, and I still was very much in my 'I feel unloveable' place and I still was very much not where I wanted to be career-wise." She continued, "Even if a person came around that I was googly gaga about, I had these wild defenses up that made it almost impossible for a true intimate relationship to occur. It was all very surface."
Eventually, love came to her at the right time. "If you love something and you let it go, and if it's meant to be, it comes back to you," Lizzo stated. "And then when the time was right we came together, and we just recently were like, 'Oh, we’re together. This is official.' "
Noting how serious their relationship is, the Detroit native added, "We're not playing any games with each other anymore. We’re very much locked in." Asked if she'll marry her boyfriend, she said, "There's nobody else I'm going to be with for the rest of my life," before bursting out laughing.
Previously, in an interview with Vanity Fair, Lizzo revealed she'll only walk down the aisle when she is interested in starting "a business" with her partner. While she saw her and Myke as "life mates," she will only legally affirm their union if it makes financial sense.
"I've known him for over six years. He's everything. We're just in love. And that's it," she said in the interview published in October. "He's the love of my life. We are life mates. Do I want to get married? If I wanted to start a business with him, I'd get married because that's when your finances come together." She admitted though that she would like to have a wedding. She said, "I like weddings. I would like to have a wedding over a marriage."
While Lizzo is "connected" to Myke, she insisted she doesn't need him to feel "complete." She elaborated, "How wonderful would it be to be this complete independent person and to come together to make two complete independent people? Not that whole 'You complete me, you're my other half.' No. I'm whole, and you're incredible too. We're like the mirror image of each other. We're connected. But that doesn't mean I was incomplete when I met him."
