Nia Long might be “single AF” but the 52-year-old still has her sights set on a new romantic interest.
Long recently appeared as a guest on The Drew Barrymore Show and shared how she’s been adjusting to the single life. The actor also made a stunning confession, revealing that she already has her “eye on one person” since her split from Ime Udoka.
I have my eye on one person. I’m not saying. I’m never telling.
Barrymore replied to Long’s confession by explaining that “it’s fun to have crushes.” And she “likes dating.” Long revealed that she’s testing out dating apps, but is a bit “nervous” to be back in the dating pool.
Long then questioned Barrymore about the men she finds on dating apps. And how exactly the process “works.”
While on the show, Long also revealed her relationship to be “so single.” As The Shade Room previously reported, fans began to speculate that the 52-year-old was dating singer Omarion. The two were spotted holding hands with one another, with Long pulling him closer for a picture, at the premiere of her recent film You People.
But the actor quickly stepped into The Shade Room to let fans know that their speculations were wrong.
Everybody simmer down… I’m single AF
The star recently split from her fiancé Ime Udoka after news broke of the basketball coach being unfaithful. As The Shade Room previously reported, the Boston Celtics “publicly revealed that Udoka was having an inappropriate, consensual relationship with another employee.”
In a recent interview, Long addressed the scandal. And explained that she has experienced “a lot of devastating moments” in her life. While speaking the star became emotional.
I’ve had some pretty devastating moments in my life the last couple of months and I’ve had to just say, ‘it’s alright, you’ll pick yourself back up’… Oh my god, I’m about to cry…
Roommates, who would you like to see Nia Long with next?
