Megan Thee Stallion Says Boyfriend Klay Thompson Makes Her Feel ‘Overly Comfortable’

Speaking exclusively with PEOPLE, Megan Thee Stallion said she was blindsided by finding love with Klay Thompson, but due to her inner self-work, she knew she was ready.
“Well, I don't never want to tell [anybody] to just jump in a relationship just because everybody else got one, and I'm not going to tell you to just jump in a relationship because you have to,” she said. “I didn't even know I was going to be in my relationship, to be honest.”
“I think that because finally I started being in a better mind space about myself and my life, and I had already been doing a lot of work to heal me," the Grammy winner shared. "I had been going to therapy, I had a bunch of activities that I started doing for myself, maybe God just opened up that space for me to have somebody that loved me right."
The rapper told the outlet that the love between the two feels different than anything she has experienced before.
“This is one of the first times that I've ever been just overly comfortable,” Megan said. “I'm comfy, babe!”
She also offered advice to her fans, dubbed the “Hotties,” about letting love come to you instead of chasing it.
“I think people got to stop trying to be in love and trying to chase love," Megan shared. "They just got to let it come to them. When it's meant for you, it's going to happen. God does not give you nothing that is not meant for you.”
