In her Instagram post, she featured a heart-shaped popsicle along with the date “10/24,” sparking fan theories that it may be a tribute to her boyfriend, Klay Thompson, 35, who plays for the Dallas Mavericks.

If true, Lover Girl could mark a new creative direction for the rapper, showcasing a more intimate and romantic side compared to her confident, high-energy anthems.
Megan and the five-time NBA All-Star first sparked romance rumours in July, when the rapper shared a photo that subtly featured Klay Thompson in the background.
The couple later confirmed their relationship by attending the Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala together in New York City, arriving hand in hand. Since then, they’ve frequently shared photos and videos together across their social media platforms, confirming their growing bond.

Their chemistry has also been visible courtside. Megan was spotted cheering for Klay during the Mavericks’ recent victory over the Los Angeles Lakers, days after fans speculated about a possible breakup when Klay avoided relationship questions during Dallas Mavericks Media Day.
Klay faces the San Antonio Spurs on October 22, 2025, at American Airlines Centre hours before “Lover Girl” drops. The five-time All-Star averaged 17.9 points last season. “Lover Girl” could mark Megan’s romantic pivot, boosting her second 2025 single.
