Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson have called it quits. The rapper confirmed their split Saturday (April 25), shortly after alleging Thompson cheated in a message posted earlier via Instagram Stories.

“I’ve made the decision to end my relationship with Klay,” Megan said in a statement obtained by Billboard. “Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward. I’m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.”


An Instagram Stories update, which is a temporary post, on Megan’s account first addressed her breakup with the NBA player on Saturday.

“Cheating, had me around your whole family playing house… got ‘cold feet,'” the block of text read. “Holding you down through all your HORRIBLE mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season now you don’t know if you can be ‘monogamous’????”

She closed the post with “b—- I need a REAL break after this one .. by yall.”

The music artist, who’s performing in Broadway’s Moulin Rouge! through mid-May, and the Dallas Mavericks shooting guard started dating in summer 2025 — with Meg once recalling their first time connecting as “a meet cute” and once describing her former beau as “the nicest person I’ve ever met in my life.” They had their red carpet debut in New York City that July.

By Thanksgiving, Thompson had named his boat after his girlfriend (“SS Stallion”), and the couple had spent a holiday together with Thompson’s family.

In February 2026, Meg quipped that she was “manifesting my engagement” (presumably to Klay) in a video clip filmed in Milan with Olympic athletes Brittany Bowe and Hilary Knight, who are engaged.
