Kendrick opened up about his relationship with Alford during a 2015 Billboard interview, stating: "I wouldn't even call her my girl. That's my best friend. I don't even like the term that society has put in the world as far as being a companion—she's somebody I can tell my fears to."

Several months later, the Grammy-winning artist appeared on Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club show and confirmed he and Alford were engaged.

Complex has reached to Kendrick's representatives for comment.
