Megan Thee Stallion appeared extra emotional during her Saturday, April 25, Broadway performance of Moulin Rouge in the wake of her breakup from NBA star Klay Thompson.
Megan, 31, received a thunderous standing ovation during her curtain call, in which she was spotted wiping away tears and at one point turning away from the crowd via social media footage.
Megan, who currently stars as Zidler in the stage adaptation of the iconic film, announced her breakup hours before showtime.
“I’ve made the decision to end my relationship with Klay,” Megan told Us Weekly in a statement. “Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward. “I’m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.”
Several hours before, Megan appeared to publicly accuse Klay, 36, of infidelity after nearly one year of dating.
“Cheating, had me around your whole family playing house … got ‘cold feet,’” Megan claimed via her Instagram Stories earlier on Saturday without mentioning Klay by name. “Holding you down through all your HORRIBLE mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season.”
She continued, “Now you don’t know if you can be ‘monogamous???’ Bitch, I need a real break after this one. Bye y’all.”
The NBA star has not publicly addressed the breakup or the cheating allegations. Us reached out to a rep for the pro athlete for comment.
While Klay has since remained mum about the split, several fans have questioned how the shooting guard could walk away from his relationship with the beloved rap star.
Influencer Hasan Piker was in disbelief that Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson broke up after nearly one year of dating. “Oh my god, that is a generational fumble. Are you f***ing serious?” Piker, 34, said in a Saturday, April 25, Instagram video, reacting to Megan’s social media statement that announced the news. “Klay Thompson, […]
“That is a generational fumble. Are you f***ing serious?” influencer Hasan Piker said in a social media video shared on Saturday. “Klay Thompson, this was the best thing that has happened to you in your damn life, dude. How is that possible? That’s Megan Thee Stallion. This is more important. This is the one ring you should be paying attention to, not the motherf***ing NBA ring.”
Piker, 34, further proclaimed that Megan is a bona fide catch, whom Klay should have wanted to marry.
“Megan Thee Stallion is into anime, has like all of the unique interests, she’s dope, she’s super successful. It just doesn’t make any sense,” Piker added in his upload, referring to the exes’ past social media posts together. “Bro had her cooking for his family, yeah. He named his boat after her? That is the fumble of the century, that’s how you know he doesn’t have ultra instinct. He can’t lock in.”
Klay and Megan were first romantically linked in July 2025, the same month they made their red carpet debut at her Pete & Thomas Foundation Gala. (Megan started the organization in 2022 to support women, children, seniors and underserved communities in Houston, Texas.)
“Megan is such a special person and she inspires so many around the world. I’ve seen it firsthand,” Klay exclusively told Us at the time. “This is just another incredible feat of hers to be able to give back, create [a] foundation and raise a ton of money for those in need. I’m honored to be here by her side.”
