Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

When you’ve been through a storm in your life, the happiness waiting for you on the other side is something truly worthy of celebrating.

That’s why we were overjoyed to see reality star and entrepreneur Angela Simmons smiling ear to ear as she went public in her new relationship with boxer Daniel Jacob. We love seeing our girl get back in the ring and give love another shot!

We were also happy to close out the week with Trey Songz, who gave us a Black love anthem when we needed it most. His new video for “Circles” is an unapologetic anthem celebrating the strength and resilience of Black love, and when asked by a troll why we can’t celebrate “all love,” your boy had an epic comeback.

Scroll through the gallery to see all the best Black love moments of the week.

Idris Elba and Sabrina Dhowre Elba
The beautiful Mrs. Elba recently spoke to People about surviving coronavirus with her husband. She admits to fearing that “it was the end” when she learned of her husband’s diagnosis. Dhowre Elba says she decided to be with her husband instead of quarantining away from him, which ultimately led to her contracting coronavirus as well. Thankfully, the Elbas have recovered and are doing well.”Having been sick and being okay also now gives you this new lease on life,” she told the magazine.
