Report Confirms Our Breaking Story Ben Simmons is Engaged to Maya Jama

We told you last week.

NBA star Ben Simmons is reportedly engaged to British television host, Maya Jama. We first reported rumors were swirling that Ben Simmons got engaged.

Only a few days later we caught his Tattoo Artist accidentally leaking the news.

Now the Sun is confirming our report.

“Ben adores Maya and has fallen head over heels for her. He chose the ring himself and felt he knew exactly what she would want. Maya said yes and they’re both thrilled. He and Maya have been together for much less time but, thankfully, she said yes. Ben was so excited, but they’ve decided to keep the news low-key and tell only those closest to them,” a source told The Sun.

Ben used to date Kendall Jenner and Maya Jama used to date British rapper Stormzy. They have been dating publicly for 7 months and he allegedly proposed during Christmas.

“News is going to get out eventually, but they’re keen to keep it under wraps until the new year. Ben fell for Maya almost immediately and was absolutely taken by her sheer beauty. He tells friends he loves the fact that she has her own career and he’s smitten by her British accent.”

Looks like we were on top of this one.

Best of luck to Ben and Maya, hopefully he can get his work life drama resolved.
