Post-match celebrations suggested new rumors about Jayson Tatum's personal life. Spotted at a victory party, acclaimed R&B singer Ella Mai was seen wearing Tatum's Boston Celtics jersey. Fans noted not just her attire but also a visible baby bump, stirring speculation that Ella Mai and Jayson Tatum may be expecting a child.

Jayson Tatum's relationship timeline 

Jayson Tatum has been in a relationship with Ella Mai for the last four years, marking just one chapter in his romantic chronicle. Here's a glimpse into Tatum's love life.

Jayson Tatum first fell for Toriah Lachell during their high school years. This relationship eventually led to their son, Jayson Christopher Tatum Jr. (known as Deuce), born on December 6, 2017.

The news of Lachell's pregnancy took Tatum by surprise, as he was primarily focused on his basketball career. He decided to keep the news under wraps to avoid any negative impact on his prospective NBA draft.

Between 2017 and 2018, Jayson Tatum found love again with Samantha Amos while at Duke University. This relationship hit a snag when word got out that Lachell, Tatum's ex-girlfriend, was carrying his child during his NBA rookie year.
