Bukayo Saka and fiancée Tolami Benson spark breakup rumours with Instagram changes

Bukayo Saka and his fiancée Tolami Benson have prompted breakup speculation after unfollowing each other on Instagram, with Benson deactivating her account and their engagement post no longer visible.

Arsenal and England winger Bukayo Saka and his fiancée, Tolami Benson, are at the centre of breakup speculation after fans noticed the couple no longer follow each other on Instagram.

Benson has also deactivated her Instagram account. The photos announcing their engagement are no longer visible on either profile.

Neither Saka nor Benson has commented publicly, and the reason for the changes is unknown.

A relationship kept out of the spotlight

Benson and Saka are believed to have started dating around 2020 but kept their relationship out of the public eye for several years. For a long time they did not even follow each other on social media, so fans had little to go on.

Benson became more widely known when she was seen in the stands supporting England at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar and again at Euro 2024 in Germany.

From proposal to public celebrationThe couple’s engagement drew attention around the world late last year. Saka reportedly proposed on 17 November 2025 at a luxurious London hotel, and they shared the moment on Instagram on 28 November 2025, posting black-and-white photos captioned simply “17.11.25”.

At the time, a source said Bukayo went all out for the proposal, describing a carefully planned evening for the occasion.

Benson has a large social media following of her own. She studied public relations and media at Birmingham City University and works as a content creator.

More recently, she attended the New York premiere of “Bukayo Saka: The Time Is Now” in June 2026 and became one of the most talked-about faces during England’s World Cup campaign.

Fans await clarity

The couple’s long silence about their private life has led many supporters to urge caution and not read too much into the social media activity.

For now, the 25-year-old remains focused his recovery from a muscle injury sustained in Arsenal’s Champions League draw with Bayern Munich.

Saka was a key part of the Arsenal side that won the Premier League title last season.
