They then rekindled their connection in February of last year when she guest co-hosted a special Valentine’s Day episode of 106 & Park with him on BET. Interestingly enough, they kissed on camera and that is when they both have said their romance began (despite them both being in relationships at the time). Still, she maintains they didn’t become more than friends until they were both single.
“Life has a funny way of working out. We were friends…I was going through a breakup and he was dealing with someone. We were confiding in each other. We were going back and forth. Once I was done with my relationship, that’s when we started to spend a lot of time together. We are so alike, we know so much about each other. We’ve been in each other’s lives.”
