It appears rapper Megan Thee Stallion is head over heels in love with basketball star and NBA champion Klay Thompson, as she had good things to say about her beau when she was asked about their relationship at her inaugural Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala at Gotham Hall in New York City.
Per Page Six, Thompson, who plays for the Dallas Mavericks, and Megan made their red carpet debut at the event on Wednesday. Thompson, 35, graced the event in a black tuxedo while Megan wore a long black dress. The couple also showed some PDA on the red carpet.
“I have never dated somebody so kind,” Megan told the news outlet. “This is my first relationship where I’ve ever been with somebody who’s genuinely a nice person, and he makes me genuinely happy.”
She added: “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.”
Megan gushing about Thompson came after she initially dropped a subtle hint about their relationship in a photo she posted on Instagram. In the photo taken at a pool, Megan is seen posing in a bikini while an individual appearing to be Thompson is spotted sitting in the background.
Besides talking about Thompson, Megan also touched on her gala, which she founded in honor of her deceased parents. The Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala raised funds for initiatives targeted at education, housing, health, and wellness.
“I feel like I’m carrying on a good legacy of my family name. I know [my parents are] looking down on me super proud,” she said.
