Aaron Pierre Says He Is “Very Locked Into” Fatherhood and His Career

Pierre did not hesitate when Bush-Hager asked the question that had clearly been on the audience’s mind. After being prompted about whether he was single, the actor answered simply, “I am!”

He then made clear where his attention is going at the moment. “I’m just very locked into being the best father I can be, and being the best artist I can be.” The comment came as Pierre continues to build momentum with several major projects on the horizon.

His latest public relationship was with Teyana Taylor. The two first generated dating speculation in early 2025 before making their romance public later that year. Taylor also featured Pierre as her romantic interest in the music video for “Long Time,” released in June 2025. Their relationship ultimately ended in December, with the pair quietly going their separate ways after less than a year together.

The conversation also touched on Pierre’s unexpected status as one of the internet’s current favorite heartthrobs. When Bush-Hager noted that fans have dubbed him “the internet’s boyfriend,” Pierre laughed off the attention rather than shying away from it. “We’re all only human. I would be lying to you if I said it wasn’t warmly received,” he said. “I’m very appreciative of it. It definitely makes me smile.”

For now, Pierre has plenty keeping him busy professionally. He stars as John Stewart in “Lanterns,” HBO’s upcoming DC series alongside Kyle Chandler, which follows the veteran Hal Jordan and new recruit Stewart as they investigate a murder that leads to a larger mystery. The series is coming August 16.
