From rap stars like Lil Durk and India, Lil Baby, and Jayda, to iconic couples like Nelly and Ashanti, Will and Jada, and even Rihanna and A$AP Rocky, these celebrities prove that spinning the block on love is possible … or not.

As you know, Lil Baby and Jayda are probably the most known celebrities to spin the block. Over the years, their relationship has been judged by many in the public eye. The two first met in 2016, before Lil Baby’s rise to fame in the hip-hop industry. They welcomed their son, Loyal Armani, on February 18, 2019.  Their relationship has experienced its ups and downs, which they have openly discussed on social media platforms and in interviews. Despite reports of a breakup following Lil Baby’s alleged involvement with an adult film star in 2020, the couple had been rumored to be dating again. But in March 2022, Jayda took to Instagram and said, “I’m finally standing up… everything comes to an end.” Recently during a live session, Jayda said she was “single.”

Another couple known for spinning the block is Lil Durk and India Royale. The two have been dating since 2017. Over the years, it’s been reported that the couple have split several times over accusations of cheating, but it appears that the love is here to stay. In November 2018, they welcomed the birth of their daughter Willow. Almost three years later, the rapper proposed to India on stage at Big Jam in Chicago. However, in the summer of 2022, India announced that she was a “free agent.” That following year, she wrote a similar tweet: “I’m very much single.” In April 2023, it was evident that they were back together, as seen in videos that Lil Durk posted to X.

Nelly and Ashanti‘s reunion has been the most surprising reconciliation in the past year, sparking considerable buzz among fans. After being apart for over a decade, the two reignited their romance in early 2023. Their relationship was on and off again from 2003 to 2013. In January 2024, rumors began to swirl that they were welcoming their first child together. However, the couple has not confirmed fans’ speculations.

J Lo and Ben Affleck‘s relationship timeline reads like a Hollywood script. Initially captivating the world with their romance in the early 2000s, the power couple known as “Bennifer” seemed destined for forever. However, amidst intense media scrutiny and the pressures of fame, they called off their engagement in 2004. Fast forward nearly two decades later, and fate intervened once again as they rekindled their love in 2021. They later got married in July 2022 in a Vegas ceremony.

In recent years, the spotlight on Will and Jada Pinkett Smith‘s relationship has revealed a different side to Hollywood’s most admired couple. The most shocking revelation was revealed In July 2020, after Jada said on her “Red Table Talk” that she and Will had been living “completely separate lives” since 2016. But, Following Will Smith’s infamous Chris Rock slap in 2022, Jada reportedly confirmed that she would never leave his side.

A couple that recently got engaged for the second time are Tamar Braxton and Jeremy JR Robinson.  In March 2023, the couple got engaged after meeting on Peacock’s dating show, Queens Court. About seven months later, Robinson announced on Instagram that they had ended their engagement. Later that year, Tamar announced during her December show at the House of Blues that she “got her man back.” Even though he was spotted out on a date with LHHATL star Tommie Lee. The two got into a heated online argument shortly after, with Tommie claiming that Braxton should “check to see if you’re sleeping with the enemy or not.” But it appears true love always wins because on Christmas Day, JR proposed, and they have been together since.

Now, Lil Meech and Summer Walker sparked dating rumors in early 2023, sparking both excitement and doubts about their relationship’s success. However, shortly after the couple took their relationship public on Meech’s social media, cheating allegations arose when a woman posted a photo of her and Meech in bed. But Meech moved quickly to shut the rumors down, stating, “This is two years ago [cap]. Summer is mine.” Later that year, Meech faced more heat following another cheating accusation when a Ring recording showed him entering an apartment with a female, captured by a nearby neighbor. Unfortunately for him, Summer said that was enough for her since she can’t do that cheating stuff,” ultimately confirming their split.
