Let’s go ahead and put some respect on Eve’s name—again.

The Grammy-winning rapper and actress is clapping back at all the whispers about her marriage, money, and so-called “soft life.”

Eve recently addressed the rumors swirling around her relationship with British entrepreneur Maximillion Cooper, making one thing crystal clear: he’s not a billionaire. He’s successful in his own right, yes, but she’s been making boss moves long before marriage.

While some assumed Eve’s luxury lifestyle was handed to her, she reminded us that her glow-up came from her hustle. From platinum albums to blockbuster roles to hosting The Talk, Eve has built an empire—and she’s proud of it.

And about that soft life narrative? Eve isn’t all the way there. She’s resting, sure—but she’s still working, growing, and staying true to her grind. She said, “I’m still about my independence.”

For the record, Eve deserves her peace and her power. Women can be successful and soft. They can build and receive. It’s not one or the other—it’s both.

So next time someone tries to credit her success to her man, just point them back to her catalog, her career, and her receipts.

Eve is still that girl. Always has been.
