Draya Michele may have starred in "Basketball Wives," but the television personality never actually became a wife. She is a proud mom who was once engaged to her son's father.
Draya Michele, known for her appearance on "Basketball Wives," is also an actress and designer. Although she was part of the show's cast, she was never married to a basketball player. Instead, she was engaged to a football star.
She was also linked to other personalities after sightings of her with a basketball player made rounds on the internet. While Michele has had unsuccessful relationships, her top commitment is being the best mom to her son.
Oscar Scandrick Almost Became Draya Michele's Husband
Michele made headlines in 2015 for her engagement to Dallas Cowboys cornerback Orlando Scandrick. The athlete proposed in the same place they had their first date and was so nervous that he tripped and fell over chairs.
However, by the time he got down on one knee and showed a gorgeous and expensive ring, costing around $400,000, Michele started to feel nervous as well. She said:
"He got down on one knee, and as soon as he started to talk, I got nervous and couldn't help but to laugh hysterically. I was laughing and crying at the same time."
Unfortunately, their engagement was called off less than a month later, with Scandrick calling the proposal a "poor decision." To make matters worse, he filed a restraining order against her.
Nevertheless, one person continues to bind them – their son, Jru Scandrick. At the time of his birth, the football star was already a father to twin daughters Taylor and Tatiana.
Draya Michele Dated Tyrod Taylor

Previously, Michele shared some of the celebrities she would hypothetically date, including Michael B. Jordan, who she said she would get along with.
The couple was spotted out together on some evenings in 2020, including a sighting in West Hollywood in October and a romantic dinner in Newport Beach in December. Unfortunately, the duo kept their relationship private and did not share much information about it with the public.
