Who Is Wizkid? New Details About The Rapper Naomi Campbell Is Rumored To Be Dating
She allegedly just broke up with Skepta.
After speculation that she and boyfriend Skepta had parted ways, Naomi Campbell confirmed the breakup after she was spotted holding hands with a new man.
The 48-year-old model attended the GQ Awards in London on Sept. 5 with Nigerian rapper Wizkid. The 28-year-old walked into the event holding Campbell's hand.
This new romance comes with its fair share of controversies. Starting with the fact that WizKid, whose real name is Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, just released a music video with Campbell's ex-boyfriend Skepta.
Their song "Energy (Stay Far Away)" was released earlier this year. They both also appeared with Drake on a remix 2015.
Skepta and Campbell first started dating back in 2016, and seemingly confirmed their relationship when they appeared topless on the cover of British GQ together earlier this year.
Reports that they broke up started in April and were fueled after the rapper allegedly got another woman pregnant. He posted a photo of an ultrasound on July 30 with just a flower emoji as the caption.
While people at first thought Naomi was expecting, it now seems like Skepta's baby momma is someone else. He never announced who the mother is.
“She is not impressed at all with Skepta after he posted the scan on Instagram," a source said. “He is staying cryptic over the whole thing, which has led fans to link them again, when the reality is that they ended things months ago."
“Naomi isn’t sure what’s happening with him and whether there really is a baby, but she is not happy that the whole thing has led to speculation about her private life. Now she just wants to put their relationship behind her and is keen to distance herself from the whole thing."
However, it doesn't seem like Campbell's new boyfriend is any better. Back in 2011, rumors started that Wizkid fathered his first child when he was 21. He publicly denied the existence of a child for two years until he posted a photo of his 2-year-old son on his Instagram.
Wizkid also has two other sons from two other different women, making him a father of three.
Neither Campbell nor Wizkid have commented on their relationship.
