NBA star Klay Thompson and Grammy-winning rapper Megan Thee Stallion have gone public with their relationship.
The Golden State Warriors guard all but confirmed the romance on July 12 by sharing a series of photos from a tropical getaway—several of which featured the two holding hands and sharing affectionate moments on the beach.
The Instagram post, which included a photo of Thompson holding hands with a woman wearing Megan’s signature curly hairstyle and long nails, quickly set social media ablaze. Fans were quick to note that the woman in the photo matched the look Megan had been seen sporting in her recent posts, adding fuel to a relationship that had already been brewing online.
Rumors of a romance began earlier in the week when eagle-eyed followers noticed Thompson in the background of Megan’s poolside photos. A subtle but telling detail—matching nail art—led many to believe that the two were spending time together. This “soft launch” moment quickly escalated into a full-blown confirmation when Thompson posted vacation photos showing the pair walking along the beach and appearing to share a kiss.
The NBA community didn’t hesitate to weigh in. Thompson’s teammates and fellow athletes including Draymond Green, Kevin Durant, and Dwight Howard reacted with a mix of surprise and support, dropping emojis and comments across social media platforms.
Though neither Thompson nor Megan have issued a formal statement, their coordinated social media posts and public displays of affection leave little doubt about the status of their relationship.
