Prior to the tragic plane crash in 2001, Aaliyah and Dash were dating one another and allegedly had plans on getting married in 2002.
“She was the best person I ever knew…I never met a person like her in my life,” Dash explained to MTV News shortly after Aaliyah’s death. “Every day that we were together, we cherished. Every memory — every day was a special event, whether it was going to a store or going to a movie or just sitting in a house. Wherever we were was like our own little party, in our own little world.”
