you would need to illustrate how you are getting that result. Refer to the
MCVE I wrote below which illustrates this usage.

it seems likely that the object was expired for some reason.

all eager loading strategies are fully supported for all relationship
configurations except for those which use the "dynamic" loader strategy.
see the comments in the example below for tips on diagnosing your issue.
from sqlalchemy import Column
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy import ForeignKey
from sqlalchemy import inspect
from sqlalchemy import Integer
from sqlalchemy import select
from sqlalchemy.orm import declarative_base
from sqlalchemy.orm import relationship
from sqlalchemy.orm import Session
Base = declarative_base()
class Bonus(Base):
__tablename__ = 'bonus'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
basis = relationship("Accomplishment", uselist=False, lazy='joined')
class Accomplishment(Base):
__tablename__ = 'accomplishment'
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
bonus_id = Column(ForeignKey('bonus.id'))
e = create_engine("sqlite://", echo=True)
Base.metadata.create_all(e)
s = Session(e)
s.add(Bonus(basis=Accomplishment()))
s.commit()
s.close()
# echo=True shows SQL emitted, which includes the eager load:
# SELECT bonus.id, accomplishment_1.id AS id_1, accomplishment_1.bonus_id
# FROM bonus LEFT OUTER JOIN accomplishment AS accomplishment_1 ON bonus.id =
accomplishment_1.bonus_id
bonus_w_accom = s.execute(select(Bonus)).scalar()
# we can see object was eagerly loaded like this, among other ways
assert 'basis' in bonus_w_accom.__dict__
# close the session, will detach all objects. note we have not
# called session.rollback() or session.commit(). These will expire
# the attributes. expire_on_commit=False will prevent commit() from doing so.
s.close()
# object is detached
assert inspect(bonus_w_accom).detached
# attribute is still there
assert bonus_w_accom.basis
