You’ve seen the TikToks. You’ve probably scrolled past the Instagram photos of a massive, glowing wedding in the North Carolina mountains. Or maybe you caught a clip of a star quarterback gushing about his "wife Ann Michael" after a big New England Patriots win.
If you’re here because you saw "Drake" and "married" in the same sentence and nearly dropped your phone, let’s clear the air immediately.
Drake is not married. At least, not the "Certified Lover Boy" Drake you’re thinking of. As of early 2026, Aubrey Drake Graham—the 6 God himself—is still officially single. The guy who collects Hermès Birkin bags for his "future wife" hasn’t actually found her yet.
The confusion taking over the internet right now actually stems from Drake Maye, the New England Patriots quarterback. He married his longtime sweetheart, Ann Michael Hudson, in June 2025. Because the internet loves a good mix-up, search engines are currently melting down with people trying to figure out if Drizzy secretly tied the knot.
He didn't.
Why the 6 God remains single
Honestly, Drake has been pretty vocal about why he’s not rushing to the altar. In a world where rappers get married and divorced in the span of a single press cycle, he’s taking a different route.

Basically, he thinks he’d be a terrible husband right now.
In a fairly candid interview on The Really Good Podcast with Bobbi Althoff, he admitted that he can’t really offer a partner the "consistency" they’d need. "My work is my priority," he said. He’s a perfectionist. He’s in the studio at 4:00 AM. He’s touring the world. He’s managing a massive business empire.
Adding a marriage on top of that? He’s worried he’d just end up disappointing someone.
There’s also the fame factor. Drake has famously dated some of the most iconic women on the planet—Rihanna, Serena Williams, Jennifer Lopez. But he’s hinted that when he does finally settle down, it probably won’t be with a celebrity. He told Althoff that famous people "aren't that intriguing." He’s looking for someone who is an individual, someone who isn’t a "carbon copy" of every other person in the industry.
The women who almost made it
To understand who Drake might marry one day, you have to look at the history. It’s a long list. It’s a complicated list.
- Rihanna: The big one. The "on-again, off-again" saga that lasted from 2009 to 2016. He famously declared his love for her at the VMAs, but it just didn't stick. She’s now happy with A$AP Rocky, and Drake’s lyrics suggest there’s still some... let's call it "lingering energy" there.
- Sophie Brussaux: She’s the mother of his son, Adonis. While they aren't together romantically, they’ve become a masterclass in co-parenting. She’s a French artist, she’s private, and she seems to be one of the few people who can actually keep him grounded.
- SZA: They dated back in 2009, long before they were the superstars they are today. They’re still cool, though. They even collaborated on "Slime You Out" recently.
- The Rumor Mill: In the last year, he’s been linked to everyone from Sexyy Red to various models like Lexi Wood. But nothing has ever been "ring on the finger" serious.
Is Drake married to the game?
It sounds like a cliché, but for Aubrey Graham, it’s kinda true. His relationship with his fans and his legacy seems to take up all the emotional space that a wife would usually fill.
Think about the Birkin collection. He’s been collecting those bags for years, tucked away for the woman he eventually ends up with. It’s a romantic gesture, sure, but it’s also a bit of a trophy. It shows he’s waiting for a "unicorn"—someone who fits a very specific, perhaps impossible, mold.
There’s also his mom, Sandi Graham. Drake is a self-proclaimed "momma’s boy." He often says she’s the only woman he’s ever truly been able to count on. When you have that kind of bond, the bar for a spouse is incredibly high.
What to expect in 2026
Don't expect a surprise wedding announcement from the OVO camp anytime soon. Drake is currently navigating the fallout (and the creative resurgence) following his massive 2024-2025 feud with Kendrick Lamar. He’s focused on reclaiming his spot at the top of the charts.
He’s also busy being a dad. Adonis is getting older, and Drake is frequently spotted courtside at games or hosting massive birthday parties for him.
If you see headlines about "Drake's Wife," check the photo. If it’s a tall guy in a Patriots jersey, that’s Drake Maye. If it’s the guy from Toronto, he’s likely still in the club, or the gym, or the studio—happily unmarried.
Next Steps for Fans:
- Verify the "Drake": Always check if a news story refers to "Aubrey Graham" or "Drake Maye" before sharing.
- Listen to the Lyrics: Drake usually drops hints about his current flings in his time-stamped songs (like "6AM in New York").
- Watch OVO Sound: Any real life-changing news will likely come through his official channels or a very carefully placed Architectural Digest feature.
