She Said Yes: Chance The Rapper And Longtime Love Kirsten Corley Are Engaged

She Said Yes: Chance The Rapper And Longtime Love Kirsten Corley Are Engaged
By Lauren Porter · Updated October 23, 2020

Chance the Rapper will soon be “Chance the husband” after the three-time Grammy Award winner has proposed to his longtime love, Kirsten Corley on Wednesday. 

The 2017 ESSENCE Fest performer got down on one knee on the Fourth of July to ask for Corley’s hand in marriage. After she accepted, the Chicago native took to Twitter to share the good news. “She said yes,” he tweeted. 

She said yes ๐Ÿ”—

#TSRProposals: Congrats are in order for #ChanceTheRapper and his new fiancรฉe #KirstenCorley!! He popped the big question yโ€™all! ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ˜

A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom) on Jul 4, 2018 at 3:14pm PDT

Chance’s brother and fellow rapper, Taylor Bennett, took to Instagram soon after his sibling proposed to share his excitement.

A post shared by BE YOURSELF. OUT NOW!๐Ÿ™‚ (@taylorbennett) on Jul 4, 2018 at 3:41pm PDT

The 25-year-old, born Chancellor Bennett, and Corley began dating in 2013 and welcomed their adorable daughter Kensli, in September 2015. 

No matter what we are, we're always family ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ‘ง

A post shared by Chance The Rapper (@chancetherapper) on Jan 26, 2017 at 8:39am PST

In May, the rapper dedicated a sweet Instagram post to Corley for her birthday, saying she was “responsible for every one of the most wonderful things in my life.”

From the beginning beginning to the end end. You are my oldest and best friend. You are responsible for everyone of the most wonderful things in my life. Iโ€™m forever grateful that God made me find you, and even more grateful that you made me find God. Forever and ever babe. Happy Birthday

On Chance’s history-making Grammy-award winning project, Coloring Book, he rapped, “trynna turn my baby mama to my fiancรฉ,” and it looks like he’s done just that.
