Karamo Brown Says Jussie Smollett Is 'The One' Amid New Romance

Karamo Brown, star of Netflix's "Queer Eye," has declared that he has found the love of his life in actor Jussie Smollett. Speaking on Carlos King's "Reality With The King" podcast, Brown expressed his belief that Smollett is his future husband.

"I do believe this is going to be my husband. I believe this is going to be my forever person," Karamo said. The podcast aired Tuesday, hours after news broke that the two are dating. On Monday, the couple had lunch with Karamo's mother in Los Angeles, followed by errands and a romantic hike through Runyon Canyon.

This new relationship comes after both have experienced recent breakups. Smollett ended his engagement to Jabari Redd after nearly three years together. Meanwhile, Karamo split from photographer Carlos Medel in February 2025 after dating since 2021.

Fans are already speculating about a possible wedding, as Karamo has made his intentions clear. The pairing has surprised some, but those close to the stars note that both have been seeking stable, long-term relationships.

Karamo Brown is known not only for his TV work but also as an actor and activist. Jussie Smollett continues his career following a high-profile controversy in 2019. Their union has drawn tabloid attention, but the couple appears committed to building a future together.
