And then what do you know? Love showed up, but in a new way," he said during a confessional as the credits began to roll. "I want to share that and really honor the person that I love and loves me back and is teaching me so much about love and healing. I want to do that in front of the world because it defies all of the constructs one would say love is supposed to be or love should look like."

In Summer 2020, August revealed he had been romantically involved with Jada Pinkett Smith. Later, Jada, who has been married to actor Will Smith since 1997, stated she and her husband had separated for a period of time during her “entanglement” with August. Photo: August's IG/Getty
