Who is Bukayo Saka's fiancée?

Tolami Benson is the fiancée of Arsenal's Bukayo Saka. She grew up in Hatfield, Hertfordshire, and studied Public Relations and Media at Birmingham City University. She reportedly worked at Harrods and then several PR firms before joining the media agency Zenith as a senior planning executive in May 2025. She is also a fashion and lifestyle influencer with a reported following of nearly 300,000, has worked with River Island and has attended London Fashion Week and the British Fashion Awards. She has been reported to be a governor at her former secondary school.

The couple are believed to have started dating around 2020, and neither has said publicly how they met. They kept things private at first; Benson reportedly told The Times, "It's nice to have things for yourself." She was first seen publicly supporting Saka at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, and at Euro 2024 she wore a jacket bearing 87, his first Arsenal squad number.

In late November 2025 they announced their engagement on Instagram with black-and-white photos captioned "17.11.25", the date of the proposal, reportedly at a London hotel. Benson has reportedly described marriage as "sacred" and said they plan a small wedding, though no date had been made public by June 2026. That summer she cheered on England from the stands at the World Cup.
