Naomi Osaka & Cordae Break Up After More Than 5 Years Together: ‘No Bad Blood at All’
The tennis champion and rapper share a young daughter named Shai.
Naomi Osaka and Cordae have broken up after more than five years together, the tennis champ announced Monday (Jan. 6).
In a straightforward letter posted to her Instagram Story, Osaka revealed that she and the rapper — with whom she shares 18-month-old daughter Shai — have called it quits, but emphasized that there’s “no bad blood at all.” “Hi everyone, just wanted to say that Cordae and I are no longer in a relationship,” she began.
“He’s a great person and an awesome dad,” the former Olympian continued. “Honestly really glad our paths crossed because my daughter is my biggest blessing and I was able to grow a lot from our experiences together.”
Billboard has reached out to Cordae’s rep for comment.
Shortly before confirming their split, Osaka had also hinted at a major life change in an Instagram post Sunday (Jan. 5). Amid a carousel of photos from some of her beach and hiking adventures — as well as a couple snaps showing off her 2025 ASB Classic Women’s Singles finalist trophy — the athlete included another written message that read, “I’ve come to the conclusion that what’s meant for me is meant for me.”
“Maybe certain situations occur to train my mind for what’s to come,” she’d continued. “Maybe there’s bigger and better things on my path, and I just have to continue the journey to encounter them.”
Osaka and the “RNP” musician first sparked dating rumors in April 2019, two months after which Cordae confirmed the relationship in an interview with HOT 97 by saying, “That’s my girl.” Four years later, the tennis pro announced that they were expecting their first child shortly after withdrawing from the 2023 Australian Open; that July, the pair welcomed Shai.
Cordae’s latest album, The Crossroads, arrived in November and earned a spot at No. 19 on Billboard‘s Best Rap Albums of 2024 list.
