Marques Houston: Love on Fast Forward - How Long Has This Dude Been Married Anyway?
Marques Houston, the R&B king with a voice smooth as butter, has been dropping hits for decades. But lately, the internet buzz seems less about his music and more about his love life, specifically, how long has he been with his wife? Well, buckle up, because this relationship went from zero to sixty faster than a Marques Houston beat.
From Jehovah's Witnesses to "I Do" in a Flash
Marques met his wife, Miya Dickey (now Miya Houston, duh!), in 2018 at a, wait for it...Jehovah's Witness event. Now, some might say that's not exactly the place to find your soulmate, but hey, love works in mysterious ways. Maybe it was the angelic singing of hymns, or maybe it was just pure charisma, but it only took five months of dating before Marques knew she was the one. Five months! Most people are still figuring out if their new shoes pinch after five months!
Engagement? Hold My Milk Dud
So, Marques, ever the smooth operator, decides to pop the question in March of 2019. That's right, folks, a proposal after just HALF A YEAR of dating! Some might call it impulsive, others might call it romantic (it was probably a combination of both, let's be honest). Either way, Miya said "YES" (with a ring so big it could blind a small dog), and #MarquesGotHitched started trending...well, maybe not trending, but there were definitely some excited posts on his fan page.
Tying the Knot in Style (Kind Of)
By August of 2020, Marques and Miya were ready to seal the deal. Now, with COVID crashing the party scene, their wedding wasn't exactly a lavish Hollywood affair. Think more backyard ceremony with close family than red carpet extravaganza. But hey, intimate can be romantic too, right? Besides, knowing Marques, the music was probably on point.
So How Long Has He REALLY Been With His Wife?
Now we get down to the nitty-gritty. As of today, May 7th, 2024, Marques and Miya have been married for almost four years. That might seem crazy fast to some, but hey, love don't have a stopwatch, you know? And besides, Marques seems happy, Miya seems happy, and their adorable daughter, Zara Denise, completes their little family.
The Final Takeaway
Marques Houston's love story is a whirlwind romance for the ages. It's a testament to the fact that sometimes, you just know, you know? Or maybe Marques just really likes Jehovah's Witness events. Either way, we wish them all the best in their happily ever after.
