What To Know About This 21-Year Union

Paul Wall and Crystal Wall started dating when they were 22 years old, she said on Tanika Ray’s ‘Mamaste’ podcast in 2022. The first time they really ran into each other, she was selling CDs for her girls’ group and he bought one. Before then, they had only seen each other in social settings on mutual campus spaces. About two weeks after buying the CD, he ran into Crystal again and talked about how much he loved it and asked for her number.

They sometimes make appearances in the rapper’s TikTok videos. According to the Houston Chronicle, they also helped raise her niece after her sister passed away from sickle cell disease.
