During a recent TikTok live, Jayda Cheaves made a startling allegation about her baby’s father, Lil Baby, and her former friend Ari Fletcher. The social media personality was promoting her skincare line before it became an all-out tea session. According to her, the speculation surrounding Ari and the rapper is, in fact, true, and they did allegedly hook up in the past. One fan asked, “The rumors about Ari & Baby???” to which she responded, “Them rumors are true, no shade, that’s been going on,” Cheaves said. “That’s been a thing, but I don’t wanna talk about it.” It wasn’t long before the 27-year-old moved on to another subject.
