The Internet Is #YoungMoon Swooning Over Rumors That ‘A Different World’s’ Maleah Joi Moon & Cornell Young IV Are Secretly Shaquille & Deborah Dating
Team #YoungMoon!
Could sparks be flying between A Different World stars Maleah Joi Moon and Cornell Young IV when the cameras aren’t rolling? Fans certainly think so after the two Hillman hotties were spotted sharing some (super) playful, flirty moments off-screen.
In the Internet-obsession-causing Netflix series, Moon, who plays Deborah Wayne—the youngest daughter of Dwayne Wayne (Kadeem Hardison)—has an on-again, off-again romance with Shaquille Johnson, played by Young, on the hit series. But lately, fans have started wondering if their onscreen chemistry might be spilling into real life. The buzz picked up after Moon and Young were spotted together at a watch party for the premiere of A Different World in Young’s hometown of St. Louis, according to TheyBF_Daily. In footage from the celebration, Moon could be seen trailing behind Young and clapping for the actor alongside his family.
None of their A Different World co-stars were seemingly present.
And then came the birthday surprise.
Young, 26, reportedly surprised Moon, 24, with a birthday cake as she had recently celebrated her big day on Sept. 23. In a video from the celebration, Young gets down on one knee while holding the cake as Moon smiles, appears shocked, and sheds a few happy tears.
She also shares a warm hug with Young’s mom, giving fans plenty to talk about.
But the internet wasn’t finished investigating.
Another video obtained by Film Updates showed Young holding Moon, with both stars flashing huge smiles.
Naturally, fans had questions—and when an A Different World fan asked Young this week if he was single, the actor didn’t exactly give a straightforward answer.
“I love my work,” he replied before letting out a big laugh. Notably, Maleah was standing nearby during the funny encounter.
