Jameela Jamil Boyfriend: Who Is She Dating?
Jameela Jamil's boyfriend is award-winning singer and producer James Blake, and the pair make quite the celebrity power couple (up there with Stormzy and Maya Jama who are sadly no more).

Having started their relationship back in 2015, the couple have never kept their relationship private but have also never had it plastered all over the media. In spite of being hugely successful and famous individuals, they have managed to keep their high-profile relationship relatively low-key.

Check out the official relationship timeline of Jameela Jamil and James Blake!

In May of 2019, Jameela and James celebrate their four-year anniversary, with Jameela posting a sweet tribute to her man:
'4 years deep with this hilarious man. I used to hate the top picture so much because of my 'double' chin, and now I realize I was such a dick for that.

'I’m so happy in that picture and I’m so glad that wonderful day is documented. And I love my chins for being such faithful friends to my biggest laughs. My inner bully is such an arsehole and every day is an exercise to murder it.'

He spoke out against the accusations, saying:
'It's pretty disgusting to watch the woman I love just being dog piled on every day for such ridiculous things. She hasn't abused anyone. She hasn't funded anything dangerous or brought any deliberate harm to any marginalized group. She's just done her best as an ever learning human, as most of us are, to help other people with her privilege.'

He finished with:
'I'm not gonna stand by and let some total strangers try to push my girlfriend over the edge to what… stop her from helping kids with eating disorders? stop removing mainstream shame of talking about mental health.'
