Earlier, it was rumored that the couple was pregnant with their first child after Young Thug joked about ‘growing a baby inside of her’ during a GQ interview. They never officially confirmed that they were expecting. Soon, rumors of a split surfaced; However, by October, it was known that the couple was still going strong amid all the separation rumors.
Previously, the couple had to go through a tough time trying to recover from his 2022 infidelity scandal, which was made public through a leaked recording. He then took to his ex’s (formerly Twitter account) and apologized, writing, “My baby, I was wrong and I’m sorry for what I put you through. You deserved better than me… I hope I haven’t lost you forever… Please everyone leave her out of this, she’s an innocent girl and feels bad about all of this. Please give her peace.” It seemed like they had officially broken up; However, this latest development has fans of the duo excited for the future.
