Are Wedding Bells Next for Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson? Inside How Their Romance Began

So, Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson are already playing with the last-name thing, and yes, the internet clocked it immediately.

The Instagram moment that lit the comments section

In a playful food review video on Megan's Instagram, Klay popped in and went straight for the bit. Megan said 'Casa de Captain,' and he smoothly upgraded it to this:

'Casa de Megan Pete Thompson.'

For anyone new here, Megan's full name is Megan Jovon Ruth Pete. And based on her reaction, she was perfectly fine with the impromptu name mash-up. Cue the comment section losing it: one fan asked, 'DID HE JUST HYPHENATE THAT NAME? Oh girlll...' while another approved with, ''Megan Pete Thompson' mmmmhmmm that's right Klay.'

Is that an engagement tease? Probably just a playful flex for now. But it definitely got people talking.

Quick catch-up: how this went from rumors to official

• July 2025: Dating buzz started when Megan posted poolside photos in her 'Hot Girl Summer' swimwear line. Fans noticed a familiar silhouette in the background: Dallas Mavericks shooting guard Klay Thompson.
• A few days later: Klay posted photos kissing a woman who looked a lot like Megan — and the matching nails basically sealed the internet's case.
• Mid-2025: They made it official. Since then, they’ve hit events together, and Megan has been a regular presence supporting him at games.

From meet-cute to full-on support mode

Megan has described their first meeting as straight out of a rom-com — she won’t share the when or how, just that it felt like a movie and that he’s the nicest person she’s ever met. That tracks with what we’ve seen publicly: the two have been posting low-key cute stuff, including a golf date where Klay called her his good luck charm and joked that being in love has helped his golf game.

Klay’s just as effusive. He told Us Weekly that Megan is a special person who inspires people around the world, refuses to be boxed in, and uses her platform to give back. At her Pete & Thomas Foundation gala, he said he was honored to stand by her as she raised serious money for people in need.

Are we already at the hyphen stage?

They haven’t been together that long, so the last-name bit is bold. But it reads more like flirty confidence than a legal announcement. If 'Megan Pete Thompson' ever moves from captions to paperwork, we’ll hear it. For now, they’re clearly having fun — and the vibe is very much couple goals for the comments section.
