It’s been a long-standing rumor! Back in 2014, before Catherine Paiz was married to Austin McBroom and had their three kids, she and Michael B. Jordan (the famous actor from movies like Black Panther) were seen together in Miami.
A photo surfaced of them looking cozy by a pool, but neither of them ever confirmed or denied they were in a relationship.
Years later, in 2021, Catherine and her then-husband Austin were seen at a basketball game. It seemed like they intentionally ignored Michael B. Jordan, which some people found a bit odd. While this doesn’t prove anything, it certainly kept the rumors alive!
What happened with Catherine Paiz and Austin McBroom?
Catherine’s love story with Austin McBroom, of the famous ACE Family YouTube channel, also hit a rough patch.
They started their YouTube channel in 2016, the same year their first child was born. They secretly got married a year later, and their channel, which showed them doing pranks and family challenges, quickly became very popular.
However, there were whispers of trouble almost from the beginning. Rumors of Austin cheating on Catherine followed them for years, and they also lost their home and faced money problems.
In January 2024, Catherine and Austin officially split up. Catherine later revealed on a podcast that Austin had cheated on her with as many as 20 women. She spoke openly about how difficult this was for her.
Where Are They Now?
Catherine bought her own home in 2024, starting a new chapter for herself and her children. Despite the challenges in her marriage, she seems to be doing well.
As for Michael B. Jordan and Catherine, it looks like any chance of them getting together is long gone.
