Thanks to footage that began circulating over the weekend on social media, many are wondering if the Marvel star and the DC star have said โ€œI DO.โ€ In the clip, you can hear Good, dressed in white, talking to a crowd of folks at the Congressional Black Caucusโ€™ eighth annual Black and White Gala co-hosted by her and Larenz Tate in Washington D.C.

โ€œWeโ€™re just so happy to be here with yโ€™all tonight, celebrating us, celebrating the moves weโ€™re making, celebrating the way we love and support each other, the way that we shift the world. Letโ€™s enjoy ourselves,โ€ the Harlem actress said. โ€œSo many beautiful Black faces. I love us, yโ€™all! We are so beautiful! Thatโ€™s all I got. Iโ€™m just happy to be here and I love yโ€™all!โ€

Referring to the Ant-Man actor, Good then turned to him and asked: โ€œBabe, you want to say anything?โ€ Majors then responded, โ€œYโ€™all heard the missus, so thatโ€™s what it is.โ€

Well, as you could expect, it was the โ€œmissusโ€ that got folks in a tizzy. However, and I really I hate to be the bearer or bad news, but seeing as how Majors is a true Southernerโ€”a Texas boy at thatโ€”with an old soul, โ€œmissusโ€ doesnโ€™t necessarily mean wife in this context. As someone also from the South (Arkansas and Louisiana, to be exact) โ€œmissusโ€ is almost always used in reference to the woman youโ€™re with regardless of if you all are married or not. Itโ€™s akin to โ€œold/ole ladyโ€โ€”youโ€™re really calling the woman youโ€™re with old, itโ€™s just a colloquialism.

That being said, I think we ought to pump the breaks on the wedding bells, huh? Theyโ€™ll let us know when theyโ€™ve taken things to another level.
