In December 2018, Jania posted a video titled "The End" without naming Kacey's father directly. She said they were engaged before the pregnancy, and Jania even envisioned him as the man she wanted to spend her life with.

The video revealed the complexity of their situation, with Jania expressing her hurt, noting that everything in their relationship had changed. Despite acknowledging both the highs and lows, she yearned for love and support.

The former pair first met after Jania's grandmother passed away in 2017. Both were 17, and the rapper had just been released from prison. In 2021, Jania said she was single.

Meanwhile, despite facing legal issues, Kacey's dad continues to thrive in the music scene. According to Billboard, the famous rapper has relocated to Salt Lake City, Utah.
