‘BENASHE’ is real.
That, at least, appears to be the case, after Ben Simmons posted a photo of himself with American singer, songwriter, and actress, Tinashe.
The Australian point guard, who just led his Philadelphia 76ers to a blowout win over the Memphis Grizzlies, was rumoured to have been dating the Kentucky-native for some time, but the pair looked to have confirmed the relationship on Thursday evening.
Simmons and Tinashe — real name: Tinashe Jorgensen Kachingwe — posted the same pair of photos to Instagram; the Melbourne native posting with the caption, “This is a dime I can’t pass,” while Tinashe went with a heart emoji and a padlock emoji.
Simmons is currently the favourite to win the NBA’s Rookie of the Year award, while Tinashe’s latest album, ‘Joyride’, is set to be released in April, 2018.
Of course, together, they are Benashe. We’re not sure if that’s been coined or not. If not; how good.
