According to PEOPLE the Oscar-nominated actress, who is best known for her roles in the film Precious and the TV show Empire, graced the cover of Brides’ Style Issue in May 2022 and opened up about her “incredible partner.”
“I couldn’t imagine dating someone I actually liked. Turns out, totally possible! So, I’m really happy to have been wrong about where I saw my life going, partnership-wise,” Sidibe said.
Brandon worked in the entertainment industry for over a decade, with roles in branding, marketing and consulting under his belt.
He’s worked at some of the top entertainment companies and agencies, including Cameo, Paradigm Talent Agency, CAA Music and Atlantic Records.
Frankel currently serves as the marketing and branding lead for booking agency 33 & West, according to Billboard.
After his previous marriage ended, Frankel wasn’t sure how to approach dating in the digital age. He decided to take a chance on the member’s only dating app Raya and swiped right on Sidibe.
Frankel later told Brides that their first date lasted “more than seven hours.”
He proposed to Sidibe in November 2020.
“I asked my best friend to marry me, and she said ‘YES’! So excited to spend the rest of my life with the most amazing, hilarious, beautiful, and inspiring woman I’ve ever known,” Frankel wrote in his caption. “I couldn’t imagine a life without you. We make the best team, and we make everything fun and memorable. I liked it, so I put a ???? on it.”
Now they are having twins!
Congratulations to them!
