Chloe Bailey speaks on relationship with Burna Boy

Chloe Bailey, the American singer, has opened up about her relationship with Burna Boy, the Afrofusion star. 

During the festive period last year, Bailey, 26, and Burna Boy were spotted together at Obi’s House, a nightlife club in Lagos.

Their outing sparked rumours that the two singers were dating.

But in a recent interview on the Breakfast Club podcast, the host asked Bailey if she was bringing a date to the 2025 NAACP Awards.

The singer replied that she would be attending with her godmother and manager.

When asked about Burna Boy, Bailey chose not to confirm or deny the dating rumours. She, however, said she is focused on her positive experiences in Nigeria.

“Nigeria was so beautiful. I had the best time. I ate some good food. I ate pepper soup. I ate some spicy chicken. It was really good. At the nightlife? It was so good. There were so many lights,” she said.

“I am a grown woman. I had a great time in Nigeria. He is a grown man just like I am a grown woman”.

“It is my life. It is what I signed up for. I can only expect it. It is just about how I handle it and myself. I do not think it should ever be pissing towards people asking me.”

Burna Boy’s dating history has been the subject of much speculation and attention. His preference for dating foreign black women has been well-documented.

The Grammy winner once dated Stefflon Don, the British rapper.

In 2020, the rapper spoke of his admiration for Burna Boy and how the Nigerian megastar told her he wished to make her his wife.

The ‘Ye’ singer also admitted that he intends to raise a child with the British singer, which ignited their relationship.

But the relationship hit the rocks along the way, with Burna Boy stating — in an interview — that he “has no wife” when he was asked about Don.
