Actress and singer Serayah McNeill announced the end of her engagement and relationship with rapper Joey Bada$$ (Jo-Vaughn Virgine Scott), citing ~~repeated infidelity~~ “repeated infidelity” as the primary cause. In a statement, Serayah noted that “choosing herself is no longer an option; it becomes necessary.” She also shared and later deleted recordings that appeared to show Joey Bada$$ discussing their relationship with another woman. The couple, who had been together since 2023 and welcomed a child in 2025, stated that Serayah’s priority is protecting their son. Serayah explained that she made the decision to prioritize herself after facing a “painful truth” regarding the rapper's unfaithful behavior. She emphasized that her actions were not intended for retaliation but to encourage other women to trust their intuition. Following the announcement, social media users responded by calling for a potential reunion between Serayah and her former partner, Jacob Latimore, whom she dated from 2019 to 2023. Fans have used Latimore’s social media platforms to encourage him to reach out to her. This follows Serayah’s previous comments on ‘The Jason Lee Show’ regarding her past relationship with Latimore, where she noted she had desired more commitment than that relationship provided. In the wake of the allegations, past comments from Joey Bada$$ have resurfaced. These include an interview clip where he discussed a preference for having multiple partners and a 2022 tweet in which he suggested that “relationships should be expansive and beneficial for all.” Following the breakup, Serayah confirmed she has already returned the engagement ring. While she remains on speaking terms with Joey Bada$$, her representatives clarified that their communication is strictly limited to co-parenting their 14-month-old son.
