Jhene Aiko celebrated her 28th birthday on Wednesday (March 16), but that isn't the only recent celebration in order for the "Stepping Stones" singer. Aiko secretly wed her longtime boyfriend, Dot Da Genius. He confirmed the news by sharing a pic of their special day on Instagram.

Genius actually revealed that he and Aiko had eloped some time ago. Although much speculation has surrounded the status of Aiko and Genius’ relationship, the producer put an end to any ambiguity that remained and sent sweet well wishes to his new bride.

Genius took to Instagram to share a photo of the two on their wedding day and captioned the photo, “Happy Birthday to my gorgeous wife. Happy to be on this quest w/ you!!!”

Despite Aiko being romantically linked to fellow artists such as Drake and Donald Glover in past, the singer is officially off the market. Although she has kept the happenings in her love life pretty close to the vest, back in 2014 in an interview with Complex she expressed her desire for marriage and more children.

"I'm about to give you... not a bullsh*t answer. There is, but I'm single. Not by choice. Only because I found now that when I talk to guys, they're wary because they know about Donald, they know I've worked with Drake," she said. "They're always side-eyed, suspicious. But I'm loyal in relationships. If I'm your girlfriend, that's it. I'm practicing to be your wife at that point because I treat it seriously. I feel like I was born to be a mom and a wife and totally domesticated. I'm not going to spend my time trying to prove that I am really who I say I am."
