Apryl Jones Moves On: Spotted with Mystery Man in Paris After Taye Diggs Breakup

Apryl Jones, known for her roles on reality TV and as an actress, is making headlines again—this time for her love life.

Months after her quiet split from actor Taye Diggs, Apryl was recently seen enjoying Paris Fashion Week alongside a mystery man, sparking a flurry of speculation and online chatter.

The “Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood” star, who shares two children with singer Omarion, was previously in a high-profile relationship with Taye Diggs. The couple dated for nearly two years, often sharing their playful chemistry on social media.

However, fans noticed earlier this year that the two stopped appearing together at events and had deleted photos of each other from their accounts, hinting at a breakup that was never formally announced.

Apryl’s Paris outing with her new companion—a dark-skinned African man—quickly caught the attention of her 3.2 million Instagram followers. In a lighthearted video, Apryl joked about her time in Paris, calling herself “Apple Jones” with a playful accent, while her friend responded, “You get April when you get back to America.”

Though Apryl insisted they were just friends and emphasized their 14-year friendship, many fans remained unconvinced, fueling rumors of a new romance.

The speculation only intensified when Apryl addressed the situation directly on social media, stating, “My boyfriend is at home and my partner is aware of my whereabouts.”

Her companion chimed in, dismissing online haters, while they laughed and enjoyed their time together. Despite Apryl’s insistence that their relationship is platonic, viewers continued to speculate about her love life, especially in the wake of her split from Diggs.

Online comments ranged from curiosity about Taye Diggs’s reaction to their breakup, to jokes about her new friend’s resemblance to Diggs. Some fans criticized Apryl for being immature in her recent videos, particularly when she and her friend poked fun at Diggs.

Others expressed disappointment, saying they had rooted for her and Diggs as a couple.

Apryl later addressed the breakup in a live video, reflecting on the importance of knowing what you want and who you are.

Her friend George supported her, stating, “Nobody left her; she got out of there,” suggesting that Apryl was the one who ended things with Diggs.

Taye Diggs, meanwhile, remains single and has said he is waiting for love to find him again. He previously spoke highly of Apryl, even feeling that his late mother would have approved of her. Despite their split, both have focused on co-parenting and moving forward.

Apryl’s dating history has often been a topic of public discussion, from her relationships with Omarion and his B2K bandmate Lil Fizz, to rumored links with Dr. Dre and The Game. Her latest Paris adventure has only added to the intrigue, with some fans expressing fatigue over her romantic drama.

While Apryl says she’s back on the market, public opinion is divided. Some admire her independence and honesty, while others criticize her approach to relationships. Regardless, Apryl remains unapologetically herself, embracing her journey and the next chapter of her life.
