While Pierre has remained private about his relationships over the years, Taylor has previously been candid about her marriage to basketball playerIman Shumpert, whomshe divorced in January 2023after seven years of marriage.

“We are still the best of friends, great business partners and are one hell of a team when it comes to co-parenting our two beautiful children,” Taylor wrote on Instagram.

Despite Pierre’s silence about his past relationships, he and his fellowMufasacastmates have jokingly acknowledged his newfound status as an internet heartthrob. In January, actorKelvin Harrison Jr.took toTikTokin a hilarious video to poke fun at how Pierre had become a viral sensation while promoting the movie.

The nine-second clip begins with Harrison Jr. looking directly into the camera, saying, “I’m giving the people what they want.” He then pans the camera to reveal Pierre scrolling on his phone, blissfully unaware that he’s being filmed. When Pierre finally looks up, the pair burst into laughter.  “You’re welcome,” Harrison Jr. captioned the post.

Representatives for Taylor and Pierre did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
