\n\tMegan Thee Stallion<\/a> is opening up about her split from NBA star Klay Thompson.<\/a> The Houston Hottie graced the cover of InStyle<\/a> on Wednesday (Sept. 9), and in the cover story, she reflected on the difficult breakup with Thompson after less than a year of dating.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt was very rough,\u201d she said. \u201cWhat\u2019s meant for you is always going to work out. And if something is constantly making you feel uncomfortable, just on edge all the time, you probably are not supposed to be there. God will always make you uncomfortable when something is not meant for you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMegan continued: \u201cI think I just kept trying to make pieces fit that didn\u2019t belong, trying to fit myself into someone else\u2019s life. I was losing myself a little bit. I am now in the space of finding me again.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe \u201cSavage\u201d rapper explained that she has three musts when it comes to her next relationship. \u201cTrust, fidelity and respect are nonnegotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there\u2019s no real path forward,\u201d she revealed. \u201cI cannot be disrespected. I cannot be a person who is not gonna be me. I cannot not go to work. I\u2019m going to be Megan Thee Stallion \u2026 You will not disrespect me. And you will be thankful. Period.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMegan later shared that she\u2019s feeling like she\u2019s \u201cbeen put through the washing machine and the dryer with tins, shovels and a cactus.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMegan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson first went public with their romance during a red carpet appearance at Meg\u2019s Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala\u00a0in NYC in July 2025. They ended up dating for less than a year, as Megan released a statement confirming the couple had split <\/a>in April, and claimed infidelity for the cause of the breakup. The athlete has yet to publicly address her allegations.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe rapper said when confirming the couple\u2019s split in a statement to Billboard at the time: \u201cTrust, fidelity and respect are nonnegotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there\u2019s no real path forward. I\u2019m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAs she enters another chapter in life, MTS is also preparing for a new era of music. She\u2019s continued to tease Act III <\/a>throughout the last month. While the project doesn\u2019t have a release date yet, Megan\u2019s return seems to be imminent.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Houston native\u2019s most recent album came with\u00a0Megan\u00a0in June 2024, which\u00a0debuted at No. 3<\/a>\u00a0on the\u00a0Billboard 200\u00a0<\/a>with 64,000 total album-equivalent units.<\/p>\n
