“I met my fiancé online,” Lyte shared. She first went public went the relationship in January when she posted a sentimental Instagram post.
“What can I say, except thank you Lord!! … It’s been a long time, this single life, and I thank you all for your prayers and kind words of hope,” she wrote. “God has sent me true love. For all of you waiting on LOVE- don’t give up – keep God first and he will see that you meet your match.”
In the recent interview, Lyte admitted that she had trouble letting her guard down.
