Though her ex-managers wanted her to have an affair with famous faces in the industry, she always wanted her love life to be so simple and yet so perfect. Does she have a boyfriend? Is she dating or still single? Let's get details!
Mya Harrison's Current Relationship Status: Her Ex-Managers Wanted Her To Date Famous Men For Publicity
Mya Harrison's always been fielding rumors about her dating life with some well-known artists that she worked with. During an interview with Hot 97's Ebro In The Morning, she disclosed why she kept her romance low profiled throughout her career.
After years of being in the music industry, she mentioned what it feels to be single, sexy, and free.
She said,
"I've had two boyfriends in the industry. Like, relationships. But I never say names because I respect my relationships and what we've gone through...people have linked me to a lot of people, but people also project what they want to see for you."
Her father used to manage her career in the beginning but after her parents divorced, she separated from him. Later, outside managers handled her career who often suggested her to have an affair with fellow artists to rise up high in the industry.
"My intention has always been love and connection with a person beyond anything else. I’ve been so private because I didn’t want it to make or break me or to be a public stunt. I’ve really fired a lot of managers that had that mindset or publicists that had that mindset of, ‘Oh, you need to go on a date with this person because it’s going to help album sales.’ No thank-you. That’s not my flow. I don’t like it. I understand it from that perspective. … I am single. Focused. Celibate."
Earlier in 2014, she was rumored to be dating Jay Z. She took Instagram and shut down all the speculations. She wrote,
"@kimdafuture Never did, never was, never will."
Later, she responded to one of her fans,
"Illegitimate, thirsty sources with no facts and that’s the ‘media’ for you-especially today. I play second to no one, pay my own bills, have my own label, own management company, rely on God only and respect myself & marriage way too much for nonsense. False rumors are crafted for ratings & numbers."
Meanwhile, looking at her current Instagram posts, one can simply guess that she's single at present and definitely not in the love game.
Well, we wish to see her in a romantic relationship soon!
