Los Angeles: Actress Taraji P. Henson says she is "very very happy" to be in a romantic relationship with Kelvin Hayden.

In a special episode of ESSENCE's podcast "Yes, Girl!", the 47-year-old actress gushes about her love life, now that she's been dating the former National Football League star, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"I'm very happy. Everything is coming together," she said. 

The actress added: "I'm happy in my personal life. Finally it has happened to me!" 

While she has confirmed her relationship status, Henson didn't reveal more about her personal life. 

"It was all over 'The Shade Room' anyway," Henson said. 

"You know, I'm not the type to blast my personal business, but you know, I think that it's important for people to know that I'm happy. I'm very very happy. I just am. We've been together for two years. And no one would really know that because I don't blast my info like that but I'm very happy." 

Henson and Hayden were first reported to be romantically linked in 2015 after they were spotted walking hand-in-hand along the Miami beach.
