Early Life and Family Background – How Old Is Amber Najm?
The former American Air Force officer, according to available records, was born on the 13th of April 1981. This means she is 43 years old right now. It also means she is three years older than her husband. You will easily find that T-Pain whose birth name is Faheem Rashad Najm was born on the 30th of September 1984. So while his wife is 43, he is 40 years old.
Much is yet to be learned about Amber Najm’s early life and upbringing but according to some accounts, she was born and raised in Tallahassee, Florida, just like her famous husband. This claim is yet to be authenticated, but we know she was born into a family of five led by her parents, Gina and her husband Tony Wyatt. Her parents had three children altogether, so Amber has two siblings: a sister named Andrea and a brother named Justin.
Education and Career of T-Pain’s Wife
The reports that claim Amber Najm was born and raised in Tallahassee, Florida, also claim she attended Satellite High School, a public high school you will find in Satellite Beach, Florida. She reportedly graduated from the school in 1999 and decided to further her education at Florida A&M University.
It is said that she bagged a business degree from the university. Howbeit, it is uncertain if she has applied this degree to any career. It is hard to tell what Amber does for a living at the moment, but she once served in the US Military. Her father supposedly inspired her dream to become a military officer, so she applied for the U.S. Air Force and got recruited, this was in 2001.
She served the Air Force branch of the U.S. Military for four years and was honorably discharged.
Amber Najm and T-Pain Have Been Together Since Late 2002
Showbizers gathered that the couple began dating in December 2002. T-Pain was just beginning to gain mainstream popularity then while Amber was serving in the United States Air Force. She was reportedly stationed at a base in Panama City when she met the singer. It is said that they ran into each other, exchanged contact, and it sealed their fate.
While Amber was 21, T-Pain was 18 when they met. The age difference, however, particularly the fact that Amber is older, didn’t stop them from giving love a chance. They started dating and wasted no time before they came to the decision of making lifetime commitments.
They Got Married on the 11th of September 2003
Barely a year into their relationship, Amber Najm and T-Pain got engaged. They eventually got married on the 11th of September 2003. While Amber was 22, this was roughly three weeks before T-Pain’s 19th birthday. Given the high rate of divorce in the entertainment industry, it is commendable that Amber and T-Pain have been married for 21 years.
Their marriage has stood the test of time and they seem to be genuinely in love with each other. When they celebrated their 18th anniversary, the singer shared a picture of the piece of paper where Amber wrote down her number for him. He has held on to it through the years and it says a lot about how he feels about his wife. According to the “Can’t Believe It” singer, Amber has been a huge support system for him and part of his life’s purpose is to keep her happy.
If you ask him, the secret to their thriving union is the fact that they try to listen to each other whenever they have something to say. Like every other married couple, they have encountered some challenges along the way, including infidelity. Even that wasn’t enough to tire them apart, they remain married and happily so.
T-Pain Cheated on Amber Najm with Elisa Hood
As you would soon learn in detail, the famous singer and his wife have three children together. Outside of that, T-Pain had another child, a product of his extramarital affair with Elisa Hood, otherwise known as Ms. Cherry. Elisa is also a rapper, but she is best known for VH1’s reality show, Miss Rap Supreme.
Much isn’t known about the child T-Pain had with Ms. Cherry but he has since admitted that he cheated on his wife. Based on what he shared, he was caught up with all the buzzes of the entertainment industry. In August 2009, it was reported that the singer was in a child support brawl with Cherry. T-Pain’s wife, albeit hurt, supported him through this and the singer swears he has learned his lesson.
Are T-Pain and His Wife Swingers?
Rumor has it that Amber and T-Pain are in an open relationship; that they are swingers. While Amber, to the best of our knowledge, hasn’t said anything about this, her husband has addressed the rumors.
T-Pain dismissed the notion that he and Amber are swingers. He stated that they are not in an open marriage but disclosed that they engage in threesomes. The singer related that Amber introduced the idea of them having a third party in their bedroom; this was in 2019.
According to T-Pain, they were at a strip club and Amber saw a lady she liked; they deliberated on it and eventually decided to bring her home. So, in T-Pain’s words, he and Amber “just sleep with other girls together”. They are not swingers; neither are they in an open relationship.
