No, Cynthia Erivo is not married, but she is dating actress & producer Lena Waithe. Erivo and Waithe first met at the Met Gala in 2018 when Waithe was dating another film executive. Even though Waithe and her partner got married in 2019, they eventually divorced in 2020. A year later, she and Cynthia Erivo were spotted together, and they became Instagram official in May 2022.
While there was a rumor that the couple was engaged after Erivo was spotted with a large diamond ring in February 2025, she confirmed it wasn't an engagement ring and that she and Waithe are still only dating.
