Jussie proposed to Jabari on a bustling city street just outside a restaurant, a setting filled with romance and excitement. Jabari, overwhelmed with joy, responded with laughter and embraced Jussie tightly, capturing the essence of their love story.
The final image showcases the beautiful ring Jussie selected for Jabari. While it may not feature the largest diamond seen, it clearly reflects Jussie’s impeccable taste and thoughtful choice, symbolizing their commitment to each other.
In his heartfelt caption, Smollett wrote, “I’ll be celebrating my birthday with my fiancé… He said YES!” Jussie turns 43 on Saturday, and it looks like he treated himself to a future husband as a special birthday gift!
By the way, numerous Hollywood celebrities flocked to Jussie’s post to extend their heartfelt congratulations to the happy couple, including notable stars like Vivica A. Fox, Taraji P. Henson, and Halle Berry!
While the exact timeline of Jussie and Jabari’s relationship is unclear, it is known that Redd is also an actor, and they starred together in last year’s film “The Lost Holiday.” This suggests that their connection may have evolved from a showmance into something incredibly meaningful and lasting.

It seems that Jussie is officially putting his past behind him. Remember, he agreed to pay $50K to a charity as part of a settlement with Chicago related to the hate crime hoax investigation. Sources indicate he plans to support the Building Better Futures Center for the Arts in Chicago, marking a positive turn in his journey.
He has now moved past the courtroom battles and is ready to spend his immediate future diving into wedding plans instead!
