The couple has had several challenges in their relationship so far, mostly due to the cases that Majors was facing. However, they endured through it all and are ready to take their relationship to the next step.
The story of the couple from their first date to getting engaged may seem like just another romantic relationship of Hollywood stars. But there is something special about this pair that puts them in a separate category of celebrity couples.
Meagan Good and Jonathan Majors’ Rare Relationship Dynamics
According to TMZ, sources confirmed that Jonathan Majors and Meagan Good were dating in April 2023 after they were spotted on a movie date. Later, Good was seen with Majors supporting him through his public appearances and legal struggles.
However, Good revealed during an interview with People that Majors initially tried to discourage her from dating him. She said,
He actually tried to encourage me not to be with him. He wanted to protect me. I was like, ‘My love, first of all, you’re dealing with a Black Leo.’ And also, I grew up in this industry. The things that I’ve been through gave me the bandwidth to love other people, regardless.
Meagan Good, 43, and Jonathan Majors, 35, are one of the rare celebrity couples where the lady is significantly older than her partner. The 8-year age gap might seem like challenging traditional relationship norms, but the couple is in good company, thanks to other celebrities who also proved that age is just a number in love.
Some of the other popular couples who belong to this rare club are Cher and Alexander Edwards, who have a 40-year age difference, Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden with a 7-year age gap, and Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling with a 6-year difference. Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, who recently got divorced, shared a 3-year age gap.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Sam Taylor-Johnson have a 24-year age difference, and the couple shares two kids of their own. These couples changed in relationship dynamics in Hollywood, where relationships between older men and younger women are quite common.
Meagan Good and Jonathan Majors’ Engagement Announcement
The couple chose a meaningful location for revealing their big secret to the world. At the Ebony Power 100 gala in LA, Meagan Good flaunted her diamond engagement ring on the red carpet as a sign of a full-circle moment in their love story.
The venue was very special to the couple, as Good disclosed to E! News, “EBONY Power 100 is the event that we met at in the bathrooms.” Good revealed that she met with Majors “in the unisex bathroom” there two years ago.
Good has often praised Majors since they started dating. Her public comments always showed the pride she has had in her partner. Talking about Majors’ legal struggle and personal battle, she told Us Weekly,
I’m really, really proud of him. It’s been quite a year to say the least, and how he’s handled it, how he’s grown, how we’ve learned to dance in the rain and how we’ve learned to just look at God first and foremost above everything.
In return, Jonathan Majors confessed emotionally,
I don’t want to cry, but she’s my best friend. At 34 years old, who would have thought that this would be my friend.
Over the years, Good has been a firm supporter of Majors, specifically in his latest legal and personal struggles. She was heavily involved during his three-week trial and eventual conviction, which depicted her loyalty and commitment to their relationship.
