After a month of speculation, Normani has confirmed she’s seeing Seattle Seahawks player DJ Metcalf with a subtle post to her Instagram Stories. The former Fifth Harmony singer shared a photo featuring Metcalf kissing her cheek at Metcalf’s fellow Seahawks player Tyler Lockett’s wedding. The football player shared the same photo to his Instagram Stories, while Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson also shared a video of the new couple at the wedding.
Normani and Metcalf first sparked dating rumors in June when they were spotted eating out together in Los Angeles. Neither of them have commented on their relationship status, but they were certainly looking cozy at Metcalf’s pal’s wedding. In addition to the snuggly photo they both shared to their Stories seemingly confirming they’re dating, Wilson’s video, which was re-shared by a Normani fan account on Instagram, showed the duo dancing closely as the singer held an orange drink in one hand.
Both Normani and Metcalf were dressed to impress at the wedding. For her part, the singer wore a form-fitting black dress with sheer corset detailing at the waist. Meanwhile, Metcalf opted for a traditional tux jacket and white shirt paired with shorts on the bottom.
Over the years, Normani has faced her share of dating rumors, but for the most part, she’s kept her private life out of the spotlight. In a 2018 interview with Rolling Stone, she revealed that she has always been cautious at the start of new relationships. “I feel like I’m the one that kind of lays back,” she explained. “I like to read people and try to figure out their intentions first, even though you can never really be too sure. I think it’s important for women to protect their hearts, protect themselves, because when we fall, we definitely fall. Which is a really beautiful thing — but it should only be received by someone very special.”
