This isn’t the first time Jhené Aiko has addressed her relationship status with Big Sean in light of marriage rumors. Back in July, during a sold-out performance in Los Angeles, Big Sean surprised her by joining her on stage. As he performed the song ‘Beware,’ Aiko humorously held up her empty ring finger to the audience, further dispelling any notions of an engagement.

While it appears she may be open to the idea of marriage, Big Sean has expressed some reservations regarding their relationship’s readiness for that next step. In a recent interview with Charlamagne, he suggested that he doesn’t feel their relationship is currently equipped for marriage. He stated, “To me, marriage symbolizes like the best relationship,” indicating that although he is not dismissing marriage, he believes there is still work to be done on their relationship.
“I’m not discounting anything, and I’m not saying we’re not going to get married,” he clarified. “And I don’t like putting our personal business out there, but I feel like there’s a lot of work that needs to be done in general.”
