Saweetie's love life has garnered as much attention as her career moves, making both equally eventful.
With nearly a decade in the entertainment industry, the rapper has spawned various hits, including "ICY Grl," "My Type," "Tap In," and the Grammy-nominated "Best Friend." The 31-year-old has also expanded her brand through numerous business partnerships.
Amidst her professional success, Saweetie's high-profile relationships and breakups have also kept her in the spotlight.
Let's take a look back at Saweetie's dating history.

Before her rise to stardom, Saweetie reportedly had a four-year relationship with actor Keith Powers from 2010 to 2014.
In an interview with Hollywood Unlocked, Keith disclosed that their romance ultimately ended due to a toxic dynamic between the pair.
“I was in a relationship for four years from, like, 18 to 22,” he said. “We separated because it was just too toxic.”
After the breakup, The Perfect Findstar moved on with actress and singer Ryan Destiny.

Shortly after calling it quits with Keith, Saweetie reportedly dated Diddy's eldest son, Justin Combs, in 2016.
While the length of their relationship isn't clear, Saweetie seemed to hint at why they split in her 2018 song "B.A.N." The lyrics describe an ex leaving her for another woman. Rumors circulated that Justin had left Saweetie for model Aaleeyah Petty.
The lyrics read:
“You not tall enough, your bank account not long enough for this Style is weak as f—k, your d—k ain’t bomb enough, boy, you a b—h Yeah, played the queen for a pawn b—h, yawn.”

Saweetie's heartbreak over Justin was short-lived because soon after releasing her diss track, the "Best Friend" rapper was linked to Quavo in the summer of 2018.
The couple confirmed their whirlwind romance began when the Migos member contacted her via Instagram DMs. Coincidentally, they kept running into each other at industry events, including New York Fashion Week that same year.
Despite a three-year relationship, their romance ended abruptly when Saweetie confirmed the split on Twitter. In a series of tweets, the "My Type" emcee attributed the breakup to Quavo's alleged infidelity.
“I’m single. I’ve endured too much betrayal and hurt behind the scenes for a false narrative to be circulating that degrades my character. Presents don’t band-aid scars, and the love isn’t real when the intimacy is given to other women,” she tweeted. “I emotionally checked out a long time ago and have walked away with a deep sense of peace and freedom. Excited for this new chapter of elevation.”

Despite the drama surrounding her dating history, Saweetie continued to explore new relationships.
In April 2023, the "Back to the Streets" rapper was spotted with YG at Coachella. The following month, their romance was confirmed during a getaway trip to Cabo. However, by January 2024, reports suggested that Saweetie and YG's relationship had fizzled out.
As of now, it's unclear whether YG and Saweetie have rekindled their romance, though they were recently spotted together during an outing.

In April 2024, singer Chris Brown hinted at a past intimate relationship with Saweetie in his diss track "Weakest Link," aimed at Quavo.
The pair's feud originated from the Migos rapper's rumored relationship with Chris' ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran. Quavo and Karrueche were speculated to have dated between 2017 and 2022, following several public sightings.
This came a few years after the Claws star's public breakup with Chris in 2015. Despite the rumors, Karrueche denied any romantic involvement with Quavo. Karrueche's denial didn't stop Chris from antagonizing Quavo at every opportunity.
While Chris didn't explicitly name Saweetie in “Weakest Link,” he included several innuendos suggesting she was the person he described.
The lyrics read:
“Cause I f—ked yo’ ex when you were still with her b—h, I’m up lil n—a They say revenge sweet, now think about that s—t Don’t let that line go over your head, I might just sing about that s—t I had her fiending ’bout that d—k there’s something sweet about that s—t I got some tea up out that b—h, but I ain’t go speak about that s—t.”
Saweetie would deny the allegations by releasing the track, including “Nani.”
