Issa Rae's Insecure co-stars Yvonne Orji and Jay Ellis may have unknowingly confirmed the rumor that she is engaged to her longtime boyfriend Louis Diame. While on the red carpet at the 2019 NAACP Image Awards, Orji and Ellis spoke with Entertainment Tonight about finding out about her engagement "in different ways."

"We're very excited for her," Orji said. "We all found out in different ways because we're all on different text chains," Ellis added. "We talk at different times, so we all found out at different times in different ways."

Earlier this week, Issa posted photos from her shoot with Essence.

People were quick to pick up on Issa sporting what could easily be interpreted as an engagement ring on the cover. They understandably had some questions.
