Smitten Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson enjoy romantic fishing date as NBA star gushes over his 'queen'
The new couple first sparked romance rumors earlier this month when the Dallas Mavericks forward was spotted in the Grammy winner's vacation snaps.
They since went Instagram official and even made their red carpet debut together as they stepped out for the Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala in New York City.
Now, the couple have shared their adventure away from the spotlight, as the Mavericks star took the rapper on 'another adventure' as they went fishing.
The wholesome date was documented by Megan - but posted onto Thompson's Instagram account - as she showed off their day from start to finish.
The video began with Megan - dressed in her 'sailor suit' - gushing over her new boo as they made their way to Thompson's boat.
She adorably labelled Thompson as the 'captain' and herself as the 'first mate' before cutting to a clip of the NBA star preparing the gear that they'd need for the trip.
In a later clip, Thompson declared: 'I got my queen on board, of course I feel cool. I'm the coolest guy in this harbor!'
Their trip then got underway as they set sail to a fishing location - with Megan even getting behind the wheel at one point as Thompson helped navigate her.
Upon arriving at the spot, Thompson swiftly changed into a camouflage wetsuit - which he claimed would help him hide from the fish. Megan, however, didn't share the sentiment and instead joked that he looked like a professional wrestler.
The Mavericks star then hopped in the water before being handed a spear and snorkeling away into the distance.
The caption to the post read: 'Boat days with Bae keep the haters away
'Mark my words, I WILL LAND A BIG FISH BEFORE THE OFF SZN IS OVER. I will manifest it'. Whether Thompson managed to accomplish that remains to be seen.
While most fans are in favor of the blossoming relationship between the rapper and NBA star, basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal doesn't see the relationship lasting.
The topic of the relationship was brought up on his 'Big Podcast' with Adam Lefkoe and guest Mike Tyson, and the Lakers icon predicted the couple wouldn't even make it to the end of the summer..
'Six weeks. The line is six weeks,' he said, referencing a fictional betting line.
Their romance comes just three months after Megan's relationship with another basketball player, Boston Celtics small forward Torrey Craig, seemingly came to an end.
Over the years, the 30-year-old has been romantically linked with a number of high-profile names, including Chelsea soccer star Romelu Lukaku.

UFC fight descends into bloodbath as both fighters are left unrecognizable in Las Vegas
UFC stars Chris Duncan and Mateusz Rebecki were left unrecognizable after their co-main event descended into a bloodbath on Saturday night. The lightweight stars faced off at UFC Vegas 108 and made sure to give fight fans their money's worth as they viciously battled throughout their three-round bout. Heading into the fight, Scottish star Duncan was the bookie's underdog but you'd be forgiven for thinking otherwise given Rebecki's state by the end of the fight. The Polish fighter was left disfigured, bloody and bruised after being on the receiving end of a striking clinic from his Scottish counterpart. It was enough to earn Duncan a unanimous decision victory, however, some would argue that the Scottish star hardly 'won' given the brutal damage he also suffered. The 32-year-old had nasty cuts across his face - including one deep gash right below his left eye that appeared to cause him some concern during the fight. However, in the end, Duncan battled through and it was Rebecki who wore the scars of defeat upon his face come the final bell. Notably, Rebecki's right eye had become incredibly swollen throughout the fight and the Polish star was hardly able to see out of it by the final round. The judges scored it 29-28, 29-28, 30-27 in Duncan's favor, which saw him extend his professional MMA record to 14-2 - in one of the biggest upsets of the night. The bout was so thrilling that it caught the attention of a number of prominent names within the UFC. Recently retired star Dustin Poirier wrote: 'Bravo men!! What a WAR!! You both should be proud'. Though it may be hard to believe, prior to their fight in Vegas, Duncan and Rebecki were teammates and both trained with American Top Team. Speaking ahead of the bout, Rebecki revealed: 'For me, it's difficult. We live together. He lived behind my wall. It's a funny situation because nobody in the world has that situation. 'You have teammate and an opponent in a place where you live. It's hard for your mind, but you can be better because you see how he trained. 'If you rest, your opponent go to training. When I see he go training and running, I want to do more. A couple minutes more running or go earlier to sleep. 'Do more than him. It's motivation. Stressful of course, but I didn't want to fight with him because he is my teammate.' In the end, it wasn't meant to be for Rebecki on the night and the pre-fight favorite picked up another loss - moving his record to 20-3. The gruesome scenes comes just a week after one fighter was left with gruesome injuries at UFC Abu Dhabi. UFC fighter Mohammad Yahya suffered a horrifying eye injury which saw it swell up to the size of a tennis ball after a brutal beatdown from Steven Nguyen. The 32-year-old knocked down his rival six times, smashing the record for total number of knockdowns in a single fight in the championship's history. The previous record of five was shared by Jeremy Stephens (who defeated Gilbert Melendez in 2017) and Forrest Petz (who defeated Sammy Morgan in 2006).

Amber Heard took to Instagram on Saturday to thank her fans as she wraps her final performance of her play Spirit of the People. The 39-year-old superstar — who showed off her toned physique on Friday — posed with multiple bouquets of flowers and added a sentimental caption. 'Thank you to all of my fans and supporters for making this already unforgettable weekend so much more beautiful,' she wrote to her five million followers. Amber added: 'The flowers won't last forever but the memories of all the love and support I received through this will.' She has spent the past several weeks performing at the Williamstown Theater Festival in Massachusetts. Earlier this week the Texas-bred star was showered with support from fans on Instagram as she shared a glowing selfie. Reflecting on her imminent final performance, she captioned the image, 'Lucky to be stealing one final breath before this weekend's final performances. Last chance to see Spirit of the People at @wtfestival!' Her fans expressed their excitement about her comeback in her comments section. 'Amber! We're so proud of you!!!', wrote one person, while another said, 'Wish I could see the play again! You were absolutely incredible in it ❤️❤️❤️ I hope you have a great final weekend with the festival!' Another person gushed, 'Getting to see you live was literally one of the best moments of my life, you're amazing!!' Other notes read, 'Our queen is THRIVING', and 'Beautiful as always and mastering your craft. Keep glowing and growing. ❤️' Three years ago Amber resolved her bitter court case with ex-husband Johnny Depp. She made a sensational return to acting last month, following the birth of her twins in May and her widely publicized defamation trial with ex Johnny. After stepping back into the spotlight, the Hollywood siren was cast as Genevieve in Jeremy O. Harris' play. Amber was previously wed to Pirates of The Caribbean star Johnny from 2015 to 2017, and they were involved in a high-profile defamation trial in 2022. She was ordered to pay the actor $10 million in compensatory damages and $350,000 in punitive damages, which she argued she didn't have. The jury awarded the actress $2 million in compensatory damages for her countersuit against Johnny. She is now a mother-of-three, as she has four-year-old daughter Oonagh in addition to her newborn twins — daughter Agnes and son Ocean.

Rockies lose pitchers Seth Halvorsen (elbow), Antonio Senzatela (finger)
August 3 - Colorado Rockies closer Seth Halvorsen threw just five pitches in the top of the ninth inning before leaving with an apparent elbow injury in the Rockies' 8-5 win over the visiting Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday. The rookie right-hander recorded two strikes before three consecutive balls against Pittsburgh pinch hitter Spencer Horwitz. After missing on a 99-mph fastball, Halvorsen spoke on the mound with manager Warren Schaeffer and head athletic trainer Keith Dugger before exiting the game. Right-hander Dugan Darnell replaced Halvorsen and finished the game. "It don't look good," Schaeffer said of Halvorsen's injury after the game. "It's his elbow. I'll let you know tomorrow." Halvorsen, 25, is 1-2 this season with a team-high 11 saves as well as a 4.99 ERA, 21 walks and 36 strikeouts in 39 2/3 innings over 42 relief appearances. He has a 3-3 career record with 13 saves, a 4.15 ERA, 23 walks and 49 strikeouts in 52 innings over 54 appearances since making his major league debut in August 2024. Colorado selected Halvorsen in the seventh round of the 2023 MLB Draft out of Tennessee. Halvorsen had Tommy John surgery in his freshman season at the University of Missouri before transferring to Tennessee and becoming a reliever. Also on Saturday, the Rockies placed right-handed starter Antonio Senzatela on the 15-day injured list because of a blister on his right middle finger. In a corresponding move, Colorado recalled rookie left-hander Ryan Rolison from Triple-A Albuquerque. Senzatela, 30, last pitched on Friday, going two-thirds of an inning and allowing eight runs on seven hits and two walks in 31 pitches during Colorado's 17-16 home win over the Pirates. Schaeffer said the finger blister affected Senzatela. He is 4-14 this season with a 7.34 ERA, 38 walks and 55 strikeouts in 103 innings over 22 games (21 starts). He leads the majors with 14 losses, 159 hits allowed and 84 earned runs allowed. For his career, the native Venezuelan is 43-58 with a 5.22 ERA, 255 walks and 513 strikeouts in 795 innings over 170 games (143 starts) since his major league debut with the Rockies in April 2017. Rolison, 28, is 0-0 with a 7.34 ERA, 15 walks and 18 strikeouts in 30 2/3 innings over 22 games (one start) with Colorado this season. --Field Level Media
