The "Empire" star is looking absolutely splendid and oozing with love as she spends vacation in Miami together with her new beau former Indianapolis Colts Star Kelvin Hayden Jr. The 45-year-old does not even care if her new man is currently "unemployed" as scooped by Celebrity Dirty Laundry.
Much to the success of Henson's Fox series "Empire," the actress was also a hot topic over the media for her portrayal of Cookie Lyon, her fabulous and courageous diva role even added up to what the show is perceived off - Money, fame, and the struggle with family. Meanwhile, Henson's new man, Hayden Jr., was said to be a "free agent" and currently waiting for a spot in NFL.
"Taraji doesn't seem to mind that her much younger man is basically unemployed right now. Kelvin Hayden used to play cornerback for the Indianapolis Colts and the Chicago Bears. The 32-year-old athlete is listed as a free agent right now. So instead of chasing a playoff spot in the race for the Super Bowl, Hayden is chasing his new girlfriend Taraji P. Henson around South Beach," according to CDL.
Meanwhile, ETOnline reports that Henson wore an "Emilio Pucci bikini and shorts" on the said stroll in the beach and the new couple were even holding hands while walking. The 45-year-old "Empire" star once said in the outlet that she wants a man who she can just be "herself" and who will appreciate her no matter what.
"I want a man who is not caught up into what I do for a living. I'm not that girl on the screen. I'm none of those characters, I am me," the 45-year-old Henson said in the publication. "I need safety somewhere to go where I don't have to be Hollywood, where I can take my wig off and you gonna love me and say, 'Baby, you are beautiful.'"
