I’m thrilled to share the exciting news that Blac Chyna, the reality TV star and entrepreneur, has engaged to her boyfriend of over a year, **Derrick Milano. During Howard University’s homecoming celebration, Milano proposed to Blac Chyna in front of a cheering crowd, creating a fairytale-like moment.
Clearly taken aback, Chyna, now known by her birth name Angela White, quickly accepted her beau’s romantic gesture. The two have been dating since May 2023, with Chyna taking to social media earlier this year to celebrate their one-year anniversary, expressing her gratitude for Derrick’s “love, support, and friendship” that have “filled [her] life with light and warmth.”
Chyna has engaged to rappers Tyga, with whom she shares son King Cairo, and Rob Kardashian, with whom she has daughter Dream, for the third time. While her past relationships have been well-documented and sometimes tumultuous, Chyna’s bond with Derrick appears to be a refreshing and joyful chapter in her life.
Derrick, a Grammy-winning songwriter, seemed equally thrilled to take this next step, sharing his own heartfelt message on social media about finding “balance, happiness, and God” when he met Chyna. “From our very first date to even breakfast this morning, it still feels surreal that I found my person and God placed us with one another,” he wrote.
Chyna’s ex-boyfriend, Hector, recently filed a lawsuit accusing her of physical abuse during their relationship, thrusting the couple’s personal life back into the spotlight. Chyna’s mother, Tokyo Toni, was quick to defend her daughter, acknowledging her own role in the alleged incidents and vehemently denying Hector’s claims.
Despite the lingering drama, Chyna and Derrick’s engagement seems to signify a turning point, a chance for the 36-year-old to focus on the future and the love she has found. As the couple navigates this new chapter, their fans and well-wishers have flooded social media with messages of congratulations and hopes for a lasting, healthy partnership.
“One day at a time,” wrote one commenter. “Hopefully soon. They both look genuinely pleased together.”
Indeed, as Blac Chyna embarks on this latest journey, her story serves as a reminder that even in the face of adversity, love and resilience can prevail. With Derrick by her side, she has the opportunity to write a new chapter, one filled with the “pure magic and joy” she described in her anniversary tribute—a testament to the power of finding one’s true partner in life.
