Klay Thompson isn’t just one of the greatest shooters in NBA history; he’s also one of the most intriguing when it comes to his off-court life. The four-time champ, known for his chill demeanor and love of boats (RIP to his legendary bulldog Rocco), has kept fans guessing about his romantic life for years. But as of July 2025, the Dallas Mavericks guard is making headlines for something other than his three-pointers: his relationship with Grammy-winning rapper Megan Thee Stallion. Let’s break down Klay’s dating history, his current love life, and whether marriage or children are on the horizon.
First things first: Klay does not have a wife; in fact, he has never been married and doesn’t have any kids (that we know of). Unlike some NBA stars who rush into high-profile relationships, Klay has always played it cool, both on and off the court. His love life has been a mix of short-lived flings, rumored hookups, and a few serious relationships that ended in drama. But one thing’s for sure: when Klay steps into the spotlight with a new romance, the internet loses it.
From Cheating Scandals to Soft Launches: Klay’s Dating Timeline
Klay Thompson’s first public relationship was with comedian and influencer Hannah Stocking back in 2014. The two seemed like a fun, low-key pair until things went south in 2015 when Stocking publicly accused him of cheating on social media. Ouch. That breakup was messy, but Klay bounced back quickly, sort of. He briefly dated stylist Carleen Henry later that year, but their romance fizzled out after private messages between them leaked online. Not exactly the smoothest start to his dating reputation.

Then came Laura Harrier, the Spider-Man: Homecoming actress who dated Klay from 2018 to 2020. This was his most high-profile relationship before Megan Thee Stallion. They were spotted at Nobu, the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, and even on vacation together. But rumors of infidelity (this time involving actress Eiza González) swirled before their split. Neither Klay nor Laura confirmed the gossip, but fans noticed they quietly unfollowed each other on Instagram. Classic breakup move.
Between these confirmed relationships, Klay’s name was linked to a handful of models and influencers — Tiffany Suarez, Abigail Ratchford, Kristen Evangeline — but nothing ever stuck. For years, it seemed like Klay was either keeping things very private or just enjoying the single life. That is, until July 2025, when he and Megan Thee Stallion decided to break the internet.

It all started with a sneaky Instagram post. On July 10, Megan shared a bikini pic with a shirtless guy chilling in the background: fans zoomed in and immediately recognized Klay’s signature relaxed vibe. Three days later, Klay dropped his own photo dump from their Bahamas trip, including a shot of him kissing a woman (clearly Megan) from behind and another of their hands intertwined on the beach. The caption? “Sweet Bells son 🌴 🥥”—casual, cryptic, and 100% confirmation.
The reactions were hilarious. NBA players like Kevin Durant commented “THAT BOY,” while Draymond Green simply wrote “Killa!” Fans went wild, with memes flooding social media about how Klay went from “Splash Brother to Hot Girl Summer.” Even Klay’s dad, Mychal Thompson, got dragged into it when he admitted on a podcast that he’d “never heard of” Megan before. (He’s since learned, we hope.)
So, what’s next for Klay and Megan? Neither has dropped an official statement, but their Instagram antics say it all—they’re together, and they’re not hiding it. Could this lead to something more serious? Maybe. Megan’s been open about healing from past trauma (like the Tory Lanez shooting case), and Klay’s fresh off a career transition to the Mavericks. If anything, they’re both in new chapters of their lives, and now, they’re writing them together.

As for marriage and kids? Klay’s never been the type to rush things, but if this relationship keeps heating up, who knows? One thing’s certain: whether he’s draining threes or dating rap royalty, Klay Thompson knows how to keep us all entertained.
