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.

Frequent Trump Antagonist Bruce Springsteen Offers ‘Prayer of Thanks’ That President Wasn’t Injured During White House Correspondents’ Dinner Incident

The rock icon told fans during his Sunday (April 26) show that we can disagree, but in no way, shape or form is "political violence of any kind" acceptable.

Bruce Springsteen has made no secret of his disdain and distrust of Donald Trump and his administration. But after a gunman stormed the White House Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday night (April 25) at the Washington Hilton, the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer offered a plea for peace at home and overseas as well as a broadside against political violence during the E Street Band’s show at the Moody Center in Austin, Texas on Sunday night (April 26).

“We begin tonight with a prayer for our men and women in service overseas, we pray for their safe return,” said Springsteen according to fan videos of the moment. “We also send out a prayer of thanks that our President, nor anyone in the administration, nor anyone attending, was injured at last night’s incident at the [White House] Press Correspondents’ Dinner.”
