Big Sean and Naya Rivera arrive at The Hollywood Reporter’s 22nd Annual Women In Entertainment Breakfast on December 11,2013.
Former Glee star Naya Rivera,33, was reported missing on Wednesday night. NBC LA reporter Robert Kovacik tweeted that actress was presumed dead after her four-year-old son was found asleep and alone on a rented pontoon boat on Lake Piru in Ventura County, California.
Rivera shares her son, Josey Hollis Dorsey, with ex-husband Ryan Dorsey. The couple divorced in 2016 after two years of marriage. They share joint legal and physical custody of their son.
Shortly before Rivera tied the knot with Dorsey, she was engaged to Big Sean. The Devious Maids actress, who was 27 at the time, and the rapper,26, started dating in spring 2013 and announced their engagement in October of that year. However, in April 2014, Big Sean, whose real name is Sean Anderson, called off the engagement amid rumors he was cheating on the actress.
The rapper’s camp put out the following statement after announcing the split: “After careful thought and much consideration, Sean has made the difficult decision to call the wedding off. The recent rumors and accusations reported by so-called or fake sources are simply untrue. Sean wishes Naya nothing but the best and it is still his hope that they can continue to work through their issues privately. We will not be commenting again on this matter.”

After Big Sean called off their wedding, sources told TMZ that he made the decision after couples therapy failed to help their issues. The outlet’s sources claimed that Rivera always wanted to know where the rapper was and would say things such as, “If you don’t listen to what I say, I’ll ruin your career.”
TMZ’s sources also alleged that Rivera once broke an expensive lamp during a violent argument and that he was scared off by her jealous rages.
Rivera discussed her side of the story in her memoir entitled Sorry Not Sorry: Dreams, Mistakes and Growing Up, which was released in 2016. She wrote, “I learned that I was no longer getting married from THE INTERNET, and at the same time as the rest of the world.
