Big Sean has insisted he is not in a hurry to tie the knot with longtime girlfriend Jhené Aiko, despite fans wanting to see the couple get married.
Speaking to TMZ, the Detroit rapper was asked if he felt pressure to marry Aiko given the spotlight on the pair — especially since Aiko had been seen wearing a ring.

He simply responded: “No, I didn’t.”
Sean added: “I don’t think too much about it, man. You know what? Life is short, bro, so you got to do what you feel, you know what I’m saying?”
The 36-year-old then affirmed: “She is the best, though, I’ll tell you that.”

The reporter also asked Sean if Aiko was “the one,” to which he replied: “Of course.”
Big Sean recently sat down with Charlamagne Tha God and explained why he and Jhené Aiko have not yet married, despite them being together for several years and sharing a child.
He said: “There has not been a secret industry marriage. It’s a little personal, but to be real with you, just like any people who have dealt with love, we’ve had our ups and downs. And I think it’s still finding the right navigation through it all.”
The former G.O.O.D. Music MC then explained that he doesn’t want to rush into marriage: “To me, marriage symbolizes the best relationship. People be like, ‘When y’all gonna get married?’ I feel like having a relationship is first and foremost, and marriage is a byproduct of that.
“A lot of people get the idea of like, ‘Oh, you have to get married.’ But to me, that’s almost a fear-based way of thinking because then people be getting divorced. The divorce rate is so fucking high.”

Sean insisted that he isn’t ruling out marrying his Twenty88 collaborator, but “there’s a lot of work that needs to be done in general.”
“She and I both have to be on the same page,” he added. “Not to say we aren’t. I can only speak for myself that there needs to be more work done so we can keep going. Because there’s a lot of focus on our family and careers and everything, and that is something that I feel like has not been the main focus.”
