Tyra Banks and her longtime boyfriend, Louis Bélanger-Martin, have split after seven years of dating.
“Yeah,” Banks, 52, told TMZ photographers on Thursday, November 12, when asked whether she was single and back on the market. “Maybe I am, [but] hell no am I online dating, girl, that’d be crazy!”
Banks shared that her friends have advised her to try the celebrity dating app Raya.
“I’m like, ‘What the hell is a Raya?’” she quipped. “No, but I am dating. It’s nice to be single, it’s been a while.”

The supermodel, who did not further address her breakup, was first romantically linked to Bélanger-Martin in 2019. It’s not known when they parted ways. (Banks and Bélanger-Martin were last publicly spotted together at the Shadow Force event in Los Angeles in April 2025.)
Days earlier, Banks offered a glimpse into her post-breakup mindset.
“[I’ve learned] it’s never too late to start again. I’m a single woman now, right? I’m 52 years old and I’m single,” she said during a Tuesday, November 10, appearance on the Hot 97 radio show. “I kinda was over it. I’m like, ‘I got my mom, I got my son and I’m good.’”
Banks, who shares 10-year-old son York with ex Erik Asla, hinted that she initially didn’t have a “drive” to dip her toe back into the dating scene.

“But, now, I’m like, ‘You know what? It is not too late,’” she stated. “I feel feminine dating [and] I’m back to that. There is no such thing as, ‘Oh, it has to be over because of an age or because you’re just done or, you know?’ So, I’m living my feminineness right now.”
While Banks played coy about her dating journey, she acknowledged how her physical type has changed with age.
“I think when I was young, he just had to be fine as hell. He just had to be pretty,” she added. “No, I don’t care [now]. I still want to be attracted to him, but … he doesn’t have to be [like a supermodel], and just somebody that is present.”
When it comes to potential suitors impressing Banks, the Modelland author doesn’t want any date offers extended via DM.
“Definitely not slipping in a DM [and he’s] got to have a job,” she stated. “A job, a 401K, you know, a little employment? If you’re a dad, you’ve got to be a good dad. Can’t be like, ‘Baby mama, you don’t show up.’ You got to have no holes in your shoes, maybe I need to aim a little higher? I want somebody that’s stable and clear. I want somebody that don’t need my money. They got their own. … They do not have to be rich, but just don’t need me.”
