After years of rumors— and a cryptic Tweet about being able to marry in 2013— actress Raven-Symone is finally speaking out about her sexuality.

“I will say I’m in an amazing, happy relationship with my partner, a woman,” the former Disney star told Oprah Winfrey during an Oprah: Where Are They Now? episode that aired on October 5. “I am proud to be who I am and what I am.”

Indeed, RadarOnline.com can reveal that the 28-year-old has dated model AzMarie Livingston, 27, on and off for years.

The America’s Next Top Model alum has made cameos on Raven-Symone’s Instagram, and even accompanied the actress to a charity event in Atlanta in September 2013.

According to The National ENQUIRER, the girlfriends even moved in together in New York during the summer of 2012, despite her family’s disapproval.

"She's at a point now where she doesn't care what her family thinks, and she's in love with AzMarie,” a family friend told the ENQUIRER.

Though she’s openly dating a woman, the star told Winfrey she wasn’t comfortable being categorized.

“I don’t want to be labeled gay. I want to be labeled a human who loves humans,” she said. “I’m tired of being labeled.”

She then stated the same principle applies to her ethnicity.

“I’m an American,” she said, “not an African-American. I don’t know where my roots go to, I don’t know what country in Africa I’m from. But I do know that my roots are in Louisiana.”
