True Blood's Rutina Wesley Comes Out in Heartfelt Instagram Engagement Post

Rutina Wesley

Wesley, who currently stars on Queen Sugar, posted a gallery of pics that appear to confirm her engagement to a woman. 

Queen Sugar and True Blood star Rutina Wesley, who plays queer on both series, has been increasingly more open about her relationship with a New Orleans-based chef whose Instagram handle is Chef Shonda. While Wesley has been sharing photos of the pair on her Instagram account for just over a week, this weekend she posted a gallery of the two of them appearing happily in love and engaged.

The first photo Wesley posted was of the two of them at a Queen Sugar finale event and then another one a few days later of the duo smiling in a car with the caption, "#FromTheInsideOut You are the sunshine of my life..."

#FromTheInsideOut You are the sunshine of my life....

This weekend the actress, who's also appeared on Hannibal and Arrow, posted an affirmational quote followed by a gallery that ends with a picture of an engagement ring presumably on her finger.

Despite the lovely photos of the two of them, including one of Wesley gently kissing Chef Shonda's cheek, it's the caption Wesley wrote for the gallery that is most telling. She referred to Chef Shonda as "light of my life," "fire of my loins," "my sin," and "my soul." She added the hashtags "Always more, never less. I said yes," "I was looking at her and found my joy," "She feeds my soul," and "I love you more than words."

Wesley was married to actor Jacob Fishel from 2005 to 2013.
