Does Victoria Monet have a husband? Or a wife?
Victoria Monet has a long-term boyfriend, John Gaines.
The two clearly mean a lot to each other, even though they kept things low profile early on. In fact, avoiding a public relationship early on may have been part of the key to their success.
In December of 2020, however, things became much more public — because Victoria and John were expecting their first child.

In addition to their love for each other, Victoria Monet and boyfriend John Gaines share a daughter, Hazel.
The two welcomed their baby girl in February of 2021.
Prior to that pregnancy announcement, the biggest link between them — in the eyes of the public — was that Gaines had appeared in her 2020 music video for “Moment.”
Does Victoria Monet plan to marry boyfriend John Gaines?
In September of 2021, just half a year or so following the birth of their daughter, she addressed that topic.
Victoria spoke to Essence about the prospect of marrying Gaines, saying that marriage was “the plan, for sure.”
She continued, gushing: “We’re completely in love and enjoying our new chapter.” So, clearly, there’s no big rush.

“[Hazel has] really got him wrapped around her finger,” Victoria Monet said of their daughter.
“And,” she continued, “I’ve seen him change in ways that I know he didn’t expect.”
Victoria characterized the experience of being parents to their then-infant daughter: “She’s growing us up.”

Both Victoria Monet and John Gaines continue to praise each other
In May of 2023, Gaines took to his Instagram to celebrate Victoria on Mother’s Day.
“I couldn’t ask for a better example of a woman for @itshazelmonet to follow,” he praised. “You’re killing this mom thing my love. I’m proud of you and I love you.”
Victoria replied in a comment, gushing: “I love you and I wouldn’t be half the mommy I am without you and all the ways you support me!”
