When faced with social media speculation about their relationship's visibility on Timaya's platforms, Bailey quickly dismissed critics, responding to one commenter with "Girl! I'm on his page. Grow up!"
The festival, which combined music, community engagement, and cultural celebration, showcased both Timaya's connection to his roots and Bailey's support of her partner's philanthropic efforts in Nigeria.
The reality star appears content in her current international relationship, sharing multiple photos of herself supporting Timaya at his hometown event.
This public confirmation of Bailey's relationship with Timaya has also helped dispel recent rumors that circulated in late 2024 about her alleged secret marriage to rapper Jim Jones.

Back in November 2024, the internet was in a tizzy after a head-turning rumor began to swirl claiming that Jones secretly married Bailey. In September, reports claimed Jones, 48, and Chrissy Lampkin split after a whopping 18 years together. It was well-known that Lampkin, 53, spent years waiting on The Diplomats rapper to pop the question — which despite many discussions — has never happened.
