Speculation about their relationship started in December 2024 when Bailey visited Nigeria and was seen enjoying Lagos’s nightlife with Burna Boy. The two have since been spotted together on several occasions, but neither had confirmed their relationship until now. The latest clips, which emerged on February 7, 2025, have led fans to conclude that the friendship has indeed blossomed into romance.
In one particularly telling moment, Burna Boy was seen kissing Bailey’s forehead affectionately before leaning in for another kiss, all while surrounded by friends. The duo’s night didn’t end with dinner; reports suggest they later visited a popular Lagos strip club, Secrets Palace, adding to the night’s festivities.
Chloe Bailey, known for her work with her sister Halle as Chloe x Halle, has been in Nigeria multiple times, each visit fueling rumors of a romantic connection with Burna Boy, whose real name is Damini Ebunoluwa Ogulu. Burna Boy, a Grammy Award winner and one of the leading figures in the global spread of Afrobeats, has been linked with several high-profile personalities in the past, but the chemistry between him and Bailey has captured fans’ imaginations.
The pair have been somewhat coy about their relationship, with Bailey dodging questions in interviews, like during her appearance on “The Breakfast Club,” where she described herself as a “grown woman” when asked about Burna Boy. However, this latest public display of affection seems to be a clear acknowledgment of their romantic involvement.
Fans from both sides of the Atlantic have taken to social media to express their excitement, with posts celebrating the couple’s apparent confirmation. The news has also sparked discussions about the cultural exchange and collaboration possibilities between American and Nigerian music scenes, with many hoping for a musical project from the duo.
While neither artist has made an official statement regarding their relationship status, the actions speak louder than words in this case, and the entertainment industry is watching eagerly to see what this new international power couple might bring to the table in terms of music and cultural fusion.
