Behind the scenes of 21 Savage’s career lies a complex love story with Keyanna Joseph. This relationship intertwines with his legal and personal struggles.
UK-born rapper 21 Savage, real name Shéyaa Bin Abrahim-Joseph, became a hip-hop sensation in 2017 after signing with Epic Records.
Keyanna Joseph, Savage’s wife, is a U.S. citizen who played a role in stabilizing his residency status. She is an entrepreneur and mother of three, running a beauty business, Beauty by Nukee.
The couple’s relationship dates back as far as 2011, though Savage was publicly linked to other women, like Amber Rose, between 2017–2018.
The timing of their marriage, less than a year after Savage's ICE arrest, led some to speculate it might have been for legal reasons.
Rumors of infidelity began soon after their marriage, with fans suspecting a relationship between 21 Savage and rapper Latto.
In April 2021, Latto posted a vacation photo, and fans speculated 21 Savage was the unseen photographer.
Savage and Latto were spotted with matching tattoos of each other’s names behind their ears. This led to further reports of strain on Savage’s marriage to Keyanna.
Keyanna reportedly reached her breaking point when the tattoos surfaced. By September 2023, rumors emerged that she had filed for divorce citing “unsolvable issues.”
Whether the divorce becomes official or they reconcile remains uncertain. Their tumultuous relationship continues to be a focal point of media speculation.
