Love is in the air for Victoria Monét just weeks after announcing her split from former partner John Gaines. The songstress was recently caught in a sweet moment with British rapper Stormzy at London’s Heathrow Airport.
According to People, the On My Mama singer was photographed sharing a kiss with Stormzy at the bustling London airport. The duo seemed lost in each other’s arms, enjoying a moment of intimacy. These public displays of affection came shortly after Monét opened up about her separation from Gaines, with whom she shares a three-year-old daughter named Hazel. On the other hand, Stormzy and Maya Jama had announced their split three months prior.
The last time fans saw Monét and Gaines together was when they took to social media on September 23rd to announce their separation. In a joint statement, they revealed that their relationship had ended ten months earlier but decided to keep it private until false rumors and questions started circulating.
In their heartfelt message, the former couple clarified, “We have spent the last 10 months respectfully navigating the end of our romantic relationship. While we still have deep love and respect for each other, we are no longer a couple. There was no betrayal, toxicity, or drama.”
They reassured their followers that despite the romantic aspect of their relationship coming to an end, they still shared love, care, and respect for each other, especially when it came to co-parenting their daughter, Hazel. They acknowledged that sometimes things just don’t work out, and that’s okay.
Monét and Gaines emphasized the importance of focusing on personal growth as they embarked on separate paths to become the best versions of themselves for Hazel. They expressed, “It simply wasn’t meant to be, and that’s okay. Our daughter is our top priority, and we will always operate with love in every interaction for her benefit.”
Similarly, Stormzy and Maya Jama had informed their fans via social media about their breakup in July. The couple, who had previously dated between 2014 and 2019, tried to rekindle their romance in 2022 but ultimately decided to part ways. Love may have faded, but the respect and care remained strong in their hearts.
