Tatum Talley was born on the 14th day of November 1997 in the United States of America; her precise place of birth is not recorded. She is presently 26 years old and her birth sign is Scorpio. Tatum originally hails from Austin Texas, and that was where she spent her early years with her parents. She is an American by nationality and belongs to a mixed ethnic background (African-American).

Her mother is said to be a homemaker who puts in a lot of her time to take care of the family. From records, Tatum attended Northwest High School and graduated in 2016. After that, she proceeded to Texas Christian University where she obtained a B.A. in Communication and Media Studies.
She Lost her Father, Sean, in 2017
Tatum Talley’s father Sean passed away in March 2017 and his death was a big blow to the entire family, especially Tatum. Going by reports made by Times Record News, Charles Sean Talley died of fatal injuries caused by a buck fallow deer inside a pen at their family property. Responding first to the scene was The Sunset Volunteer Fire Department and an ambulance, and upon their arrival, Sean was found in a high-fenced area where several deer were located.
By then, he already was dead, having sustained several punctures in his abdomen which were believed to be from deer antlers. The rescuers pulled him out and sent the body to the Tarrant County Medical Examiner for autopsy. Meanwhile, another report further states that Sean had a few days earlier told his family that one of the bucks was in a rut and getting aggressive, and advised that no one should go into the pen alone.
Following her father’s death, Tatum was consumed by grief and had a hard time getting over the shock and pain. In an interview, she granted a year after, in 2018, Tatum Talley revealed that she had been struggling with different states of grief over the past year since her father passed on due to the tragic nature of his death. However, the 26-year-old admitted that the incident eventually made her become so strong.
Tatum Talley Has Been Desmond Bane’s Girlfriend Since College
There is no verifiable information as to where and when exactly Tatum Talley and Desmond Bane met for the first time. But, records show that the Memphis Grizzlies star played collegiate basketball at Texas Christian University, so there is an argument that they must have met at the university, recalling that Tatum is a Texas Christian University graduate.
However, it seems the duo kept their relationship under wraps until 2022 when they made it official on social media. Desmond unveiled Tatum as his girlfriend and posted a couple of their photos. After that, they have been captured a couple of times either on vacation or just spending their free time together. Tatum on her own part set her Instagram account to private status, so it is difficult to get any information in regard to her relationship with Desmond Bane.
However, the couple who at first seemed to be very open and outspoken about their relationship after a while began to keep a low profile again. In any way, Tatum Talley and Desmond Bane, though they seem to be in agreement to keep their love life away from the media for now, are still together and share a very close bond. They are said to be very supportive of each other and are living happily together with their son.
Their relationship has never recorded any controversy and there are no indicators of conflict between them. For his fans, Desmond Bane has an admirable life on the personal front just as his professional front. And, they can’t wait to see them seal their love with marital vows.
