Thompson, who spent 13 seasons with the Warriors and helped lead the Bay Area team to four NBA championships, shared a carousel of images on Instagram on Saturday, July 12, that included a photo of him embracing a woman — widely recognized as Megan — and another of the couple holding hands on a beach.
He captioned the post, “Sweet Bells son,” accompanied by palm tree and coconut emojis — a nod to the Bahamas, where his father, former NBA player Mychal Thompson, was born.
Fans also spotted Thompson in the background of a photo Megan posted earlier in the week.
The news became official, however, on Monday, July 15, as photos of the couple walking hand-in-hand after dinner at Carbone, the celebrity-frequented New York City restaurant, began circulating.
Thompson, 35, signed a three-year, $50 million deal with the Dallas Mavericks last summer after 13 seasons with the Warriors. His departure was part of a rare six-team trade.
Meanwhile, Megan, 30, concluded her 36-city “Hot Girl Summer” tour last fall and has spoken openly about using music as a form of healing during a challenging personal chapter.
The couple has quickly become a talking point across both sports and entertainment circles.
A recent video of Thompson effortlessly sinking shots during a workout drew playful reactions online.
“Megan got him on cloud 9,” one fan wrote. Another chimed in: “Meg got him moving different.”
