Kevin Gates and Brittany Renner had the internet chatting after popping out to a Lakers game together. The rumored couple appeared close and cozy in their latest public outing together! They sat steps away from LeBron James after the rapper exchanged shade with him and Savannah James over comments on their marriage.
While folks still wait for Dreka Gates to come to the front, Kevin Gates has been loud and proud of his rekindled romance. Brittany and Kevin have a lil’ history of public flirting, even implying they’ve previously been intimate. However, their latest sightings have been during Renner’s reformed era! In August, she announced that she’s embraced Islam and their traditional practices, which included a significant shift in her usual outer appearance.
So, when she sat courtside with Kevin Gates on Tuesday (April 22), sis was covered from head to ankle in black garments adorned with splashes of green and grey. Meanwhile, her new boo was rocking a white shirt, unbuttoned with his bare chest out and a stack of glistening diamond chains. He paired his bold look with tan pants and white sneakers. Brittany had one arm linked through his and the other resting on top in some clips. From the clips, they shared a few laughs and small talk with each other! But, despite the lil social media shade beforehand, there was no reported courtside mess between the rapper and LeBron James.
The shade-throwing started after Kevin Gates called out Savannah James online while explaining why he wouldn’t trade places with her husband. He claimed that the wife doesn’t look at him “the way…white women” do. Shortly after the video spread, Savannah took to IG Stories with a throwback video of Nicki Minaj saying, “Um, Chile anyways, so.” The Nicki clip is meant to be dismissive, and at the time, fans thought it might be for Kevin!
Meanwhile, LeBron James took to social media to hype up his wife, seemingly calling Gates a “peasant” in the process. Kevin responded to the comment, saying he serves Allah and cleared the air on what he said, but stood on his point! “The truth hurts, but it heals,” Gates said.
What’s also been gagging social media is how comfortable (AND QUICK AT THAT) Brittany Renner and Kevin Gates have recently been in the spotlight. Stepping out is one thing, but the social media flex has also been heavy — from car rides to him defending her against the trolls by turning the jokes on them!
Yes, Kevin Gates and LeBron James kept the energy chill courtside. But, social media didn’t hold back on the date night choice. In The Shade Room’s comment section, the roomies sounded off like this:
What’s next for their relationship is unclear. Is Brittany Renner giving wife #2 energy? Does Dreka want to share Gates’ last name, or will she walk away? All these are questions piling up in the comment sections!
As previously reported, Kevin and Dreka appear to remain married, and there are no rumors of a divorce. Through this romance, and another claiming they’ve been on and off for five years, Dreka has focused her social media messages on peace, harmony, and earthy vibes!
