NBA star Klay Thompson has officially confirmed his relationship with rapper Megan Thee Stallion.
This has ended days of speculation sparked by vacation photos that subtly featured the basketballer in the background.
The 35-year-old Dallas Mavericks player took to Instagram last night to post a photo carousel, including a striking image of himself locking lips with a woman whose hairstyle matches that of the Texas-born rapper.

Though her face wasn’t clearly shown, other photos featured details—like her distinctive manicure—that fans quickly matched to Megan.
Thompson captioned the post cryptically: “Sweet Bells son 🌴🥥”—a phrase now making waves online as followers speculate on its deeper meaning.

Before this reveal, Megan had been romantically linked to Chicago Bulls player Torrey Craig. Their rumored relationship fizzled following her Coachella performance in April, suggesting a quiet split.
Thompson, known for keeping his private life relatively low-key, has had a few high-profile relationships in the past. He was previously linked to singer and actress Coco Jones from 2021 to 2023, as well as actresses Laura Harrier and Eiza González.
This surprise relationship reveal has ignited buzz across social media, especially as fans react to the seemingly subtle way the pair made it public—no captions, no press, just subtle hints and one bold photo.
While neither Megan nor her team have officially commented, fans believe it’s only a matter of time before the rapper embraces the headlines—and the love story—out in the open.
