Eve is making it clear that she didn’t need a man to fund her lifestyle then, and she sure doesn’t now.
Full story below…
The Philly Rap royal sat down with Angie Martinez for her IRL podcast and addressed the long-standing rumor that she “leveled up” by marrying British Gumball 3000 mogul Maximillion Cooper.
Social media has been quick to label him a billionaire, but the ‘Tambourine’ hitmaker made it clear that:
“He’s not a billionaire, he ain’t broke but I ain’t broke either so I’m not gonna be with a broke dude.”
Though Cooper isn’t technically a billionaire, his pockets run deep, and together they’ve built an empire and a family. But Eve shut down the idea that marriage is the reason for her soft girl era, she says:
“Before I met him I was doing work but because I have him it helped me do better work because he’s a good dude I’m like really lucky. But beyond that people who know me, who know me intimately, my friends, know that I don’t stop working on myself. I do all the things do the healing, I do the acupuncture, I do the spinal energetics, I do the reiki, I do the breathwork. That’s my life, that’s who I am for real.”
And while she hasn’t dropped an album since 2013’s ‘Lip Lock,’ don’t count her out. Soft girl? Maybe. But don’t forget – she’s still Ruff Ryders royalty.

I’m glad Angie interviewed Eve because I missed Eve. I truly enjoyed her commentary on “The Talk” and her energy gave the show little edge that was quite unique.
We see you Eve. You don’t owe anyone anything. By the age of 23 Eve accomplished more than the majority of people in the world. How many people can say they collaborated with an artist and created something so beautifully unique that people could ONLY honor your artistic achievement, technical proficiency and overall excellence in the recording industry by giving you a Grammy Award designed for that purpose!
