Toya Johnson Gets Engaged To Boyfriend Robert Rushing
Toya Johnson is now engaged to her boyfriend, Robert “Red” Rushing. The reality TV star, entrepreneur, and ex-wife of rapper Lil Wayne made the announcement on Instagram after her engagement was aired on the season finale of VH1’s T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle.
“So romantic,” Johnson wrote in the caption of her Instagram post while also hashtagging, “I said yes,” “Mrs. Rushing,” and “Rushing Down The Aisle.”
Johnson made her announcement by sharing two photos of herself and her new fiance standing on top of a building wearing black. The pavement of the building that the newly-engaged couple stood on read, “Toya, Will you marry me?” in the color red.
In the second photo of the two on the building, Rushing is pictured on his knee, proposing to Johnson.
On the show, Rushing took Johnson on a helicopter ride where the two lovebirds overlooked Rushing’s message in red. “Oh my God. Y’all tricked me,” Johnson said while in the helicopter.
“I cannot stop crying. This is so beautiful. I’m so shocked. I’m surprised. I really did not see this coming,” Johnson said in her confessional on Family Hustle.
“These last three years been amazing. I love the person you’ve become. Caring for me. Loving me,” Rushing said to Toya while on the rooftop. “I love the mother you became. Sister. Cousin. Everything. I want you to be my wife. Toya, will you marry me?”
“Yes,” she replied while hugging him tightly. “Put the ring on, girl” Rushing then told Johnson. “Oh my goodness, this is beautiful. Thank you, Red,” Johnson said.
Prior to being engaged to Rushing, Johnson was married to record executive Memphitz Wright. The former couple was together from 2011 until 2016 when they divorced. Johnson was also previously married to Lil Wayne from 2004 to 2006.
Johnson and Rushing share a daughter together, Reign while Johnson also shares a daughter with Lil Wayne, Reginae Carter.
