Lil Yachty's Girlfriend: The Rapper Revealed His Relationship in 2017 & Now Has a Daughter

Lil Yachty's dating life has been the stuff of headlines for years. Despite keeping his relationship status private, the musician has been romantically linked to several women in the industry. He became a first-time father in 2021 but protected the identity of his child's mother.

When Lil Yachty joined the music industry, he was exposed to the glitz and perks that came with fame and admittedly indulged. In addition to money and certain privileges, those perks included fleeting sexual intimacy with women.

Recently, though, Yachty confessed to abstaining from sex. The rapper has found more value in spending quality time with a woman, making her laugh, and simply enjoying her company. However, he added that this approach to relationships has led to many short-lived romances.

"I don't keep many women around for a long time, to be honest. I do not last long with a woman at all. I'm not actually the most sexual person. So it's nothing sexual. I'm so unsexual and it sounds so boring but it's the truth," he said during an interview in December 2022.

This approach has also led to rumors about Yachty being gay, but the musician maintained that he simply didn't care much for sex. His intentions are worth appreciating, and the women he's been linked to have spoken positively about him. Still, none have claimed to be his girlfriend.

Lil Yachty's Girlfriends: He Was Linked to Rubi Rose and Megan Denise

During an appearance on Vlad TV in 2019, Rubi Rose (not the actress) addressed rumors about her love life. She admitted to dating Travis Scott and 21 Savage when she was younger, but when asked about Yachty, she said they were friends and had previously worked together.

Yachty was also rumored to have dated India Love between 2016 and 2017 after collaborating on the "Forever Love" music video, but Yachty later said he had an "expired" crush on her. Fans then assumed he was romantically involved with Megan Denise.

Their relationship reportedly lasted between 2017 and 2018. Denise addressed the allegations later in 2017, saying she and Yachty started talking on social media. However, their relationship was only a close friendship. She said he was "one of the nicest people" she'd ever met.

Lil Yachty Said He Was Dating Someone in 2017 but Didn't Reveal Who

During a chat on Hot 97 in 2017, Yachty revealed he had a girlfriend. The musician confessed his relationship status, joking that his lover would "beat" him up if he hid her. He didn't reveal her identity but kept blushing throughout the brief minutes he spoke of her.

Yachty rarely mentioned his girlfriend afterward, but in 2021, he was linked to Selangie Arlene. That year was eventful, as he and fellow hip-hop artist Bhad Bhabie were investing in the Jewish dating app Lox Club among several other deals. Moreover, Yachty became a first-time father.

Lil Yachty Is a Girl Dad

Yachty welcomed his daughter in late 2021, sometime around October. He revealed that her mother was Dominican and Puerto Rican, and although she frequently played Selena's music for their daughter, she also played Yachty's older music.

Yachty shared that he spent quality time with the two ladies, watching films like "Selena," which stars Jennifer Lopez, "Frozen," and "Lion King." It is believed that Arlene is the mother of Yachty's daughter.

In October 2022, she posted photos depicting a one-year birthday celebration for a baby girl named Varsity. The mom of one didn't show the young one's face, and Yachty wasn't in the pictures, but this may be the rapper's family.
