Boyega described his wedding as a private affair with only a handful of guests. He joked that he asked his partner to "come with me" in a dramatic, sword‑planting gesture, likening the moment to a scene from the film Braveheart. The couple did not hold a traditional Nigerian ceremony, but Boyega said he hopes to celebrate a proper cultural wedding in the future.
Wedding rings and ceremony
He revealed he owns two rings: a two‑toned band with sentimental value and a second ring purchased spontaneously at a Walmart in Canoga Park. He gave a light‑hearted shout‑out to the store for the “lovely trip.”

While Boyega has not publicly named his spouse, speculation has centered on Lashontae Heckard, whose Instagram handle reads “Tae Boyega.” The two have exchanged public posts that hint at their partnership, though no official confirmation of her identity has been provided.
Expecting a baby
During the same interview Boyega said, “We got a baby cooking… it’s been so nice with the timing.” He expressed excitement about welcoming a baby boy and emphasized that his family life now feels “completely fulfilled.” He added that his priority is to stay present and consistent for his growing family, even when his career demands intensify.
Boyega’s comments come amid a wave of media coverage, with outlets such as Yahoo and USA Today reporting on his marital status and impending parenthood. The actor has not disclosed further details about the expected birth date or the name of his partner.
Fans can anticipate future updates as the couple prepares for the arrival of their child, and Boyega indicated that he intends to keep his family out of the spotlight as much as possible while still sharing occasional milestones.
