24-year-old American basketball player Coby White, who began his professional career by signing a contract with the Chicago Bulls of the NBA in 2019, has never been married and has a wife.
Coby’s priority appears to be completely over his NBA career, considering the fact that he has hardly discussed matters outside of his profession in front of the media lately. Coby seemingly likes to keep his love life low-key.
However, according to Essentially Sports reports, Coby White is currently dating Danyelle Williams, a Northwestern and Tulane volleyball alum. Later, several other social media users also tweeted about their romantic connection.

But, as of now, neither Coby nor Danyelle has officially announced their romantic connection to the public nor denied their relationship rumors.
Hailing from the same hometown and athletic background, Coby White and Danyelle follow each other on Instagram and occasionally comment on each other’s posts.
On November 19, 2024, Coby White shared a short clip of him endorsing Mielle Organics on his Instagram, to which his rumored girlfriend Danyelle reacted, writing “😍😍😍,” in the commentary section.
The Smiling Face with Heart-Eyed Emoji from Danyelle may suggest that the two might be dating, but until the two make an official announcement, everything is uncertain.
While Coby White remains low-key in his relationship, he never hesitates to showcase his love for his parents!
Chicago Bulls’ Coby White is extremely close to his parents and is often seen talking about them in the media.
In 2019, he even published a piece of writing entitled ‘For My Father’ in the Players Tribune, reminiscing the moments of his life after his father, Donald White, suffered liver cancer.
Every word he wrote in the piece of writing is evidence of the abundance of love he holds for his late father. Coby went on to write that when he got to know about his father’s cancer from his mom, he was furious at god.
I’m a 17-year-old kid. I need my dad!!!!! I was just sitting out there on the lawn, tears streaming down my face, asking over and over again …Why, God? Why?

But since his father couldn’t battle the cancer, he passed away, and it was his mother’s courage that held him high even in the worst situation. That’s why he considers his mother the strongest person in the world and admires her a lot.
On his mom’s birthday in 2018, he shared her picture on his Instagram and praised her for her courage, writing, “My mom! She’s the realest person i know and will always hold it down💯. No need for a long paragraph cause she know how we rocking!“
