Jamaican TikTok personalities Rosealee and Ackeem have finally taken their online flirtation offline, going on their highly anticipated first date Friday night, an outing that has quickly turned into one of the platform’s most talked-about moments.
For weeks, the pair have exchanged playful banter and flirty moments on TikTok. Their live streams have attracted waves of support from fans. One of their most memorable moments was when Ackeem showered Rose with gifts, sparking excitement among viewers. Rose was joyful when she reacted to her gifts and showed them off. However, not everyone has been thrilled about their connection, particularly Rosealee’s long-time partner, Jake.
Rose and Jake, who live together, have been in a rocky place since she publicly accused him of cheating and using her money to support his infidelity. Her tearful livestream at the time prompted an outpouring of encouragement from supporters and fellow TikTokers. While the couple has had brief moments of reconciliation, the relationship has never fully recovered.
Ackeem’s interest in Rosealee, and hers in him, has only heightened Jake’s disapproval. Jake has made his presence felt during her livestreams, sometimes even interfering with her setup to disrupt broadcasts.
Just before the date, Ackeem stirred up buzz when he appeared in Rosealee’s neighbourhood late at night to claim a promised hug. Rosealee declined, leaving fans uncertain if their first date would happen. Those doubts faded when Ackeem was spotted shopping at Pandora earlier on Friday, signalling the evening was still on.
Hours later, he posted a photo of himself holding hands with Rosealee inside a vehicle, a moment that quickly went viral, racking up over 200,000 views in just an hour. Rose also shared a video of them heading to their destination on her page.
The pair is currently dining at Whalers Seafood Restaurant & Sports Bar in Ocho Rios, where Ackeem was seen serenading Rose as they await their meal, with security close by to keep the night running smoothly. One thing that many are looking out for is whether the date will include a kiss, which Rose reportedly requested.
