Dewayne Perkins doesn't appear to be dating anyone, however, he has opened up about his dating history. In a July 2019 stand-up special for Comedy Central, Perkins recalled the time he came to terms with his sexuality. "I realized that I was gay at a pretty young age, but also realized that in certain environments, it was not OK to be gay, so I was in the closet for quite a bit of time," Perkins said. "I remember the exact moment my gayness was solidified. I was dating this girl named Raven, and it was the day I lost my virginity."
Perkins came out to his mother and four sisters before coming out to his father. "I brought my boyfriend to my nephew's birthday party, and my father asked, 'Who's that guy?' And I was like, 'That's my boyfriend.' He said, 'You're gay?' And I said, 'Oh my God, I forgot to tell you,'" Perkins said in a June 14 interview with the Hollywood Reporter.
