Jonquel And Nesha Relationship Timeline 

Jonquel and Nesha have been in a relationship since 2018, but most of their fans have been treated to photographs since 2022.

Nesha revealed that they had been dating since 2018 in a TikTok video she shared on July 29, 2022. Two weeks before that TikTok post, Jonquel had shared a birthday appreciation post for her partner. 

Posting a series of pictures of them, Jonquel captioned the post, “Thanks for loving me on my lowest days and being there for me through it all. You get my humor. You get my moods, you get it all.”

Sharing appreciation posts for each other seems to be the norm for the basketball couple. The nail technician has attended several basketball games to root for her partner.

Earlier this year, in February, the couple watched their first Broadway show. The power forward shared a few pics from the date night, which happened to be the first time she watched the play, ”Hamilton.” 

The beautiful relationship between Nesha and Jonquel took another step in April 2023. On April 14, Nesha and Joquel took to their Instagram handle to announce the exciting news of their engagement. 

The couple shared a gallery of images of their engagement, which took place in Goldwyn Resort in the Bahamas. 

It was fitting for the couple to have their engagement in the Carribean nation, the place Jonquel once called home. Now the fans of the WNBA couple are waiting for the wedding bells.
