Megan Thee Stallion reflects on relationship with Klay Thompson

In January, Megan Thee Stallion spoke to PEOPLE about her relationship with Klay Thompson, saying he entered her life unexpectedly. “Well, I don't never want to tell [anybody] to just jump in a relationship just because everybody else got one, and I'm not going to tell you to just jump in a relationship because you have to,” she said.

She added, “I didn't even know I was going to be in my relationship, to be honest.”

Megan Thee Stallion also said, “This is one of the first times that I've ever been just overly comfortable,” adding with her signature giggle, “I'm comfy, babe!”
