However, sparks flew again a few months later when the pair were involved in the same business meeting.

Deion previously told People: "It was a blessing for my life."

The devoted fiance described his partner as "classy, professional and a real woman.”

Deion said: "I mean what she does, I don't take for granted whatsoever, and the shows that she chooses to produce, they're meaningful, they have substance, they're informative and challenging, and I love that about it."

Deion previously said: "I didn't believe in long-distance marriages, number one.

After 12 years together, Tracey revealed in an Instagram post on December 3, 2023, that the pair were no longer getting married.

Since Tracey and Deion's relationship began, former husband Kenneth has spoken out about his ex-wife's partner.

He told HuffPost: "I knew that Deion, Mr. Prime Time, seems like a nice guy.

"But he became a classy guy when he called me and said he didn't want to meet my children until he sat down and had lunch or breakfast with me, so he knew me before he met my children."
