As for Megan’s relationship with Thompson, the Good News rapper made things Instagram official earlier this month. In a July 9 post, she’s seen sitting on the edge of a hot tub, while the NBA star is spotted lounging nearby in the background.

“Klay Thompson moved to Texas and said, ‘I’m leaving here with something,’” one social media user hilariously commented. Another said, “Dang, Klay [is] really just chilling in the back.” Just a few days later, on July 12, he posted a photo of them holding hands on his Instagram feed.
