Who Is Ms Banks?
Lawrence Okolie’s girlfriend, Ms Banks, is a popular UK rapper who has been dating the British boxer for around five years now. She is a highly recognisable figure in the UK music industry, having worked alongside some huge names such as Stormzy, Tinie Tempah and Little Mix to name but a few.
Ms Banks is 30-years-old and based in London. She has most certainly made a name for herself in her own right. Back in 2017, Ms Banks supported Cardi B on her UK tour. Music star Nikki Minaj is said to be a huge fan of Ms Banks, tweeting her lyrics and voicing her support for her across social media over the years.
The pair met over five years ago at Shaka Zulu restaurant in London. How they met is a funny story, with Okolie going up to Ms Banks to chat to her, despite the rappers friends telling her to not talk to the British boxing sensation.
It was after-hours at the restaurant, so it is evident that both were enjoying some food and drinks with friends when they ended up meeting. From that point onwards, the pair have been dating. Ms Banks revealed in an interview back in 2019 that she found Okolie funny, enjoying their first conversations together.
In a nutshell, Lawrence Okolie and Ms Banks are certainly a British celebrity ‘power couple’. The couple seem happily in love and continue to post photos together on social media. With the pair dating for a while now, Okolie may well want to tie the knot in the not so distant future!
