It’s not the first time they’ve broken up

While fans are surely sad over this latest news, it seems like there’s still hope for the artists, as they’re known to break up and make up.

In October 2019, about a month after they announced their relationship, Walker said on social media that she had split from the famed producer. According to Ace Showbiz, she shared an Instagram post that said:

“Single. Lol somehow I always end up with male chauvinist. Im a alpha female so I guess when I think for myself/make my own decisions it’s taken as disrespect. That was cute tho. God bless him still a sweet man deep down inside.”

But London On Da Track wasn’t letting her get away that easily. Less than a day after Walker announced their split, he reportedly popped up on her at a show bearing gifts, earning a kiss from the “Girls Need Love” crooner.

London On Da Track later shared a photo of the moment on social media along with the caption, “I’ll run bak to you before I let U walk away Slime Love.” Walker reacted to it on Twitter, gushing over how the producer always surprises her.

Fans were highly critical of the relationship

In the beginning, it seemed like many fans were on board with the romance. But many fans grew concerned in March when a video emerged on social media of London On Da Track choking Walker.

In the video, she seemed uncomfortable and begged him to let go while saying, “It’s supposed to be sexy, it hurts.” But he seemed to only squeeze tighter. Finally, he loosened his grip after she shrieked in apparent pain.

Almost immediately, the video prompted massive criticism and concern. Amid the backlash, Walker spoke out and said they were only playing. However, fans weren’t totally convinced and continued to speculate that she was allegedly in an abusive relationship. London On Da Track did not address the backlash.
