Megan Thee Stallion (real name Megan Pete) has made her budding romance with Klay Thompson official.
The “Hot Girl Summer” rapper recently made a red carpet debut with Thompson as they attended her Inaugural Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York City on July 16.
The gala is her first ever benefit gala that she has done in honour of her late parents, Holly Thomas and Joseph Pete III, to raise funds for programs focused on education, housing, health and wellness..
The 30-year-old stepped out looking ethereal in a black tie-neck gown that featured a shimmering asymmetrical belt on the hips, while Thompson wore a classic black tuxedo with a white shirt and a black bow.
According to “Page Six”, the rapper revealed that she has never dated someone as kind as Thompson.
“I have never dated somebody so kind. This is my first relationship where I’ve ever been with somebody who’s genuinely a nice person, and he makes me genuinely happy.
“I just never dated somebody like him before, and I’m just grateful that he’s here by my side and he feels the same way about me,” she revealed to the publication.
The rapper and her new beau first sparked dating rumours early this month as they shared mysterious content of each other on social media.
Megan Thee Stallion first posted pictures of herself while on vacation with a mysterious man in the background on one of her Instagram carousel pictures.
