Tyler Perry's Longtime Partner & Baby Mama Gelila Bekele Poses in a Red Dress (Photo)

Tyler Perry's longtime girlfriend Gelila Bekele stuns in a photo in a gorgeous red dress.

Fans of Tyler Perry probably know all about his career as an actor and a director, and his work as a philanthropist, but few know about his personal life.

The director has always kept his private life low key, which is a pity because his longtime girlfriend is an extraordinary woman.

MEET GELILA BEKELE

Perry and Ethiopian model Gelila Bekele have been together for a long time, and in 2014, they welcomed their first child, son Aman, now 5.

Recently Gelila has given fans a glimpse into her life by posting a striking photo she took in her native Ethiopia in a red dress, and the peace she feels in her native land transpires in her face.

GELILA BEKELE IS AN ACTIVIST AND AN AUTHOR

Gelila is a very talented lady in her own right. She was signed on by Ford Models in 2006. Apart from her successful career in fashion, Gelila is dedicated to charity work and has written a book about her native Ethiopia.

GELILA BEKELE AND CHARITY WATER

TYLER PERRY'S LOVE STORY

In 2014, Gelila announced that she was pregnant in the cutest way.

“I get a FaceTime call and she’s holding up the pregnancy stick. I’m like, ‘I guess this is happening,'” he said.

They welcomed their first son together, Aman Tyler Perry, who is now 5. How about a little sisted for Aman, just as pretty as her mom?
