Soon after Frank Ocean’s highly-anticipated performance at Coachella 2023, speculation began rife about his personal life and relationships. Although rarely discussing it openly, bisexual musician Ocean rarely divulges details of his intimate life. Ocean recently shared with GayLetter that he has been dating someone for three years – likely Memo Guzman.
Memo Guzman
Memo Guzman is an actor known for appearing in various TV shows and films. Currently he’s featured as Edmundo “Eddie” Diaz in 9-1-1 on FOX drama series.
Ocean has maintained the privacy of his personal life, although he did open up about being gay in an open letter on Tumblr in 2012. In this letter he noted his attraction to both men and women, as well as being thankful to everyone who has supported him over time.
Rumors have swirled that Ocean and singer Omar Apollo may be romantically involved, as they were seen together in Italy around the same time and location, and Omar opened for singer SZA at her concert in America where Omar served as support act. Rumors about their romantic relationship have also been fuelled by both parties identifying as queer. Although it’s yet unknown if their romance exists or if it remains just platonic.
Ashanti
Ashanti is one of the best-known R&B singers. The star has released multiple hits and collaborated with several well-known artists; furthermore, she’s been involved in numerous romantic relationships.
After meeting at a press conference for the Grammy Awards in 2003, actress Jennifer was linked with rapper Nelly. Though their relationship remained relatively private, there were frequent rumors of them hooking up – they even collaborated on some songs together such as “Body on Me.”
Ashanti was seen attending an Eagles game together and DeSean Jackson posted photos to Instagram of himself with Ashanti, though neither confirmed any romantic interest between them at first. Later however, Gotti claimed they shared chemistry.
More recently, she has been linked with rapper Omar Apollo. They’ve been seen attending similar events and following each other online.
Willy Cartier
Willy Leservot first made headlines as an androgynous French model when Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci chose him for their fall/winter campaign in 2010. Due to his insurmountable height, god-like long hair, and feminine features – as well as being native of Paris – Willy Cartier quickly rose in fashion status as one of the runway’s hottest draws – with clients such as Jean Paul Gaultier, Willy & Dudley and Francois Girbaud among many more.
Recently, Channel Orange singer Willy C has created speculation of dating with handsome male model Willy on social media. Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All rapper posted several photos with Willy C on his Instagram feed including one in which they appear to be meditating together and another at a GQ party.
Ocean is known to keep his private life largely out of the public eye, yet in 2012 revealed he is gay and attracted to both men and women in an article posted to Tumblr. Although Ocean has yet to confirm whether he and Cartier are an item, they do follow each other on Instagram.
DJ Snake
DJ Snake, known for his music and collaborations with various singers, enjoys a large following on social media and is highly admired among his many fans. Additionally, DJ Snake supports numerous charitable causes through donations made directly by himself or through third-party entities.
While maintaining his private life, rapper Rapsody has been linked with multiple women. However, he has yet to respond or address these rumors and continues to focus on his career goals.
Ocean recently shared with Gayletter his viewpoint that dating apps are full of people with agendas. Furthermore, he identified Boxers in Hell’s Kitchen as being mentioned in his song “Good Guy”.
Fans have recently speculated that Ocean and Omar Apollo, another singer, may be dating each other. These rumors began after both were seen together at an Italian concert while Omar opened for SZA as Omar had already opened for her at her American show.
