Who is Victoria Monet? Grammy Award-winning singer seen with Stormzy - three months after his split from Maya Jama

As a seasoned observer of celebrity relationships, I must say that the love lives of public figures always intrigue me. Victoria Monet, a talented artist herself, has had quite the whirlwind romance with fitness trainer John Gaines and now seems to have found a new spark in Grime star Stormzy.


This week, fans were taken aback as they spotted British rapper Stormzy locking lips with American singer Victoria Monet at Heathrow Airport, just three months after parting ways with Maya Jama.

31-year-old rapper and 29-year-old Love Island host officially ended their relationship in July, as they had split up in 2019 before briefly reconciling in August of the previous year. They made this announcement in a statement.

It appears that despite not explicitly discussing it, Stormy may have hinted at a growing relationship with Victoria by being photographed alongside her.

Known for her 2020 EP Jaguar Victoria is a US singer who has been performing since a young age. 

Here is everything you need to know about Stormzy’s new love interest Victoria Monet…

Who is Victoria Monet

Victoria, from Atlanta, Georgia was born in May 1989, and later moved to California. 

At the start of her professional journey, she became part of the girl band Purple Reign and managed to sign a contract with Motown. However, the band didn’t get a chance to release any songs as they eventually disbanded.

The singer went on to work on Diddy’s 2010 album Dirty Money, where she helped to write Last Train to Paris. 

2015 saw the release of Victoria’s first EP titled “Nightmares & Lullabies: Act 1,” followed by a collaboration with Ariana Grande on the track “Better Days” in the next year.

2020 saw me reach significant recognition with my fifth EP titled Jaguar, boasting the collaboration track “Experience” featuring Khalid and SG Lewis.

This year she scored three Grammy Awards, including Best R&B Album and Best New Artist. 

Who has she dated?

Previously, Victoria had been romantically involved with fitness trainer John Gaines. Together, they have a 3-year-old child named Hazel Monét Gaines.

The pair generally avoided public attention and were last seen together at the 66th Grammy Awards, held in February.

Back in September, she disclosed that they separated ten months prior, yet still function as a united family for the sake of their daughter.

In a comprehensive message posted on X, the pair expressed their hesitation to publicly discuss something as intimate and ordinary as love: they’ve preferred to keep it informal until now.

Despite our initial inclination to avoid discussing this matter publicly (as doing so might reignite old pains), we’re finding it increasingly challenging to remain silent. Yes, we’ve observed a plethora of inquiries and unfounded allegations about our past, and we’ve spent considerable time pondering whether it’s appropriate for us to clarify our current state as we recover, given the potential for social media to amplify truth or distort it beyond recognition.

After much consideration, we chose to be transparent about the situation to bring closure, helping us move forward with our healing. For the past ten months, we’ve strived to handle delicately and discreetly the reality of our broken bond.

Despite our deep affection and respect for each other, we are no longer a romantic couple. Our decision wasn’t due to any issues like infidelity, toxic behavior, or conflicts; instead, we’ve identified personal growth areas that we believe it’s better to address separately. This way, we can strive to be the best parents possible for our daughter. It didn’t work out between us, but that’s alright – life often takes unexpected turns.

We continue to hold each other in high regard and strive to infuse love into all our interactions as a family. Our amazing daughter is the top priority in our lives, a fact that will never change, regardless of any relationship status. Nothing can diminish or supersede this truth.

We’re dedicated to focusing on personal growth and believe that God will guide us to the right places when the time is right. A big thank you to all our supporters, friends, and family for your love, attention, and support. Let us have the tranquility and privacy to foster a secure and joyful atmosphere as we continue to do our best co-parenting for Hazel.

‘No matter what our official status may be, we choose to continue as a family, especially when we’re with Hazel. Kindly show understanding and compassion whenever you see us together. We value your support, and we ask that you keep us in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you.’

When was she first seen with Stormzy? 

It appears that British rapper Michael Owuo Jr., also known as Stormzy, was spotted in an affectionate display with American singer Victoria at Heathrow Airport in London on Thursday night, which seems to suggest the growth of their romantic connection.

In the images, the Grime artist appeared affectionate as he embraced Victoria tightly enough to lift her off the ground, finishing it with a kiss on the mouth.

An eyewitness told The Sun: ‘Both Stormzy and Victoria looked absolutely smitten with each other. 

They shared a kiss, and as he embraced her, he lifted her off the ground. It appears that he’s feeling fantastic following his breakup with Maya.

TopMob has contacted Stormzy and Monet’s representatives for comment. 

Spectators were thrilled by the photos, as one wrote on X: “Stormzy moved from Maya Jama to Victoria Monet? His list of collaborations is flawless”; or simply, “Spectators went crazy over the pictures, with one commenting on X: ‘Stormzy transitioned from Maya Jama to Victoria Monet? His choice of partners for collaboration is exceptional’.

To be honest, the rumors about Stormzy and Victoria Monet dating aren’t the most shocking bits of news I’ve encountered this week.
