Let's talk about Taye Diggs, the handsome actor who's been navigating life's ups and downs with grace. Taye has been on his own for a while now, but he's still not entirely ready to jump back into the dating pool. After parting ways with his wife of 10 years, Broadway legend Idina Menzel, in 2013 (they share a son, Walker, who’s now 8), Taye embarked on a four-year relationship with model Amanza Smith Brown. But today, the 47-year-old star admits that the world of dating feels like a foreign land to him. “I’ve made the mistake of ignoring red flags in the past, and now I’m a bit more cautious,” he revealed in a candid interview with In Touch Weekly. Let's dive deeper into Taye's thoughts on love, life, and everything in between.

Taye, who's currently starring in the delightful Netflix romantic comedy Set It Up alongside Lucy Liu, shared that he's hesitant to dive back into the dating scene. As a devoted dad, he's understandably cautious about putting his heart on the line again. “I’ve been scared into paying more attention to those red flags,” he confessed.
