Nick James, her co-star from The Haves and the Have Nots, is currently in a relationship with the actress. They first met on the set of the TV show and have been dating ever since. (masalabox.com) Because they keep their connection private, little is known about it.
In January 2017, Sumpter and James confirmed their engagement. The lovebirds are finally ready to tie the knot after four years of engagement.
Nick James and Tika Sumpter’s Wedding
Sumpter claimed she was finally ready to marry in a February 2021 interview with Essence. She didn’t go into great detail about why they delayed four years, but she now wants to walk down the aisle right away.
The COVID-19 epidemic played a part in her desire for a celebration with friends and family while she was quarantined. Some of her family members died from the virus, and others were getting older, according to the Mixed-ish star. Sumpter believes that now, more than ever, is the time to be close to friends and family.
Sumpter did not specify a specific date for the wedding, but one thing is certain: it will happen when the pandemic is finished. She revealed that she would arrange it this year, with the wedding taking place around next year.
The Engagement Was Aided by Tika Sumpter’s Daughter
Ella-Loren Sumpter, Sumpter’s daughter, was born in October 2016. She didn’t say who the father was at the time, but she later verified it was her soon-to-be husband.
Motherhood, Sumpter says, has transformed her and made her more susceptible. Before giving birth to her baby, she had no idea that she could be open about her experiences and not be condemned for them. In October 2019, the actress spoke with Blacklove.com about her background and the type of mother she aspired to be.
Stumper wishes to provide Ella with all she lacked from her mother. She wants to change a few things about how she raises her child based on her own childhood experiences. Sumpter wants her child to grow up to be a conscious human being who can look up to and be inspired by her mother.
Ella was instrumental in her father James’ proposal to Sumpter. On The Real, the actress gushed about her engagement months after giving birth to her baby. She told the sweet story of how her fiancé set up a house-wide scavenger hunt for them.
Sumpter had a sneaking suspicion James was preparing to propose, but her suspicions were dashed when she saw the gift was a Peloton bike. Despite this, James surprised her with a letter buried by their daughter that had a message for her. Sumpter enthusiastically accepted the proposal.
