Yung Gravy and Addison Rae's Mom Sheri Easterling Make Couple Debut at MTV VMAs

Yung Gravy, self-proclaimed lover of "MILFS" brought his new main squeeze, Sheri Easterling, to the MTV Video Music Awards for their official couple debut. Easterling's daughter, Addison Rae, rose to fame in 2020 being named as the highest earning TikTok personality by Forbes.

During a pre-show interview at the VMAs, the new couple discussed how their relationship came to be. "We met online. Yeah. We connected right away," Yung Gravy said. "I'm from the furthest north it gets, she's from the furthest south it gets. I'm into MILFs and she's kind of the queen of the MILFs, so I figured it was just a perfect match."

Easterling, 42, is mom to well-known TikTok creator Addison Rae, 21, and sons Enzo, 14, and Lucas, 8, with estranged husband Monty Lopez. She was first linked to the rapper, 26, earlier this month after he announced he wanted to take her out on a date on the "BFFs" podcast. When asked if the MILF thing is real, Yung Gravy said it is, but he's "not loyal to just MILFs." "I did have an experience with a much older woman when I was in high school and then again in college before any rap stuff," he said. "It felt right. I need to spread this knowledge to the rest of the people. It fit well with what I was rapping about."

When asked about Easterling, Yung Gravy explained that she went through a rough breakup. The two started flirting back and forth, so the podcast hosts said, "You should take her on a date," and he responded, "Oh, that's the plan."

A month prior to the podcast airing, a source close to Easterling's family told PEOPLE that Easterling and Lopez had been living apart for a while. "They've been separated for a year. Sheri and the boys have been living in Louisiana," the source said.  News of the couple's split happened after Renee Ash, a 25-year-old influencer alleged she was in a relationship with Lopez, 46, for five months.

After rumors of the affair started circulating, Easterling posted a statement on her Instagram Story, "Personal matters being brought public are always challenging and overwhelming for anyone involved. I will be OK. My biggest concern is - and always will be - my children and their fragile hearts and minds. I will always do my best to try to protect them. My goal is to make sure that they feel secure and safe and know that everything will be okay. Thank you all for the love and support and kind messages. It means the world to me."

The new couple shared some kisses and affection for all to see at the MTV VMAs, which took place Sunday night at the Prudential Center in New Jersey. After seeing his ex with Yung Gravy, Lopez took to Instagram to say, "Unbothered! Thank you @yungravy for taking the leftovers! I would rather spend time with my daughter and 2 grandkids that Sheri Nicole made me abandon as a child in order to be with her! Never let a woman make you choose between her and or your blood child."
