Saka has proposed to his girlfriend
England and Arsenal star, Bukayo Saka has taken a significant step in his personal life after proposing to his long-time girlfriend, Tolami Benson.
The proposal took place during a romantic, carefully planned evening at a luxury London hotel, where Saka surprised Tolami with what friends describe as an “absolutely enormous” engagement ring, leaving her “totally blown away.”
The couple, both 24, have been together since 2020 but have largely kept their relationship private. They first became a public presence during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, when Tolami was spotted supporting Saka alongside other WAGs.
She has since been a familiar face at England matches, including Euro 2024, where she was seen wearing a jacket emblazoned with the number 87, a nod to Saka’s shirt number when he broke into the Arsenal first team.

Saka’s romantic gesture comes after a week of celebrations on the pitch, following Arsenal’s impressive win over Bayern Munich. Friends told The Sun that the forward went all out for the occasion, ensuring the night was both intimate and memorable.
Tolami, originally from Hatfield in Hertfordshire, has carved out her own path as a senior planning executive in London.
She has become a minor celebrity in her own right, amassing over 200,000 Instagram followers and turning heads at events like London Fashion Week and the Fashion Awards, where she appeared alongside stars such as Rihanna and Maya Jama.
