The tale of Megan Thee Stallion and Pardison Fontaine’s relationship has captivated fans and intrigued the curious. Their journey from musical collaborators to hostile ex-lovers has been a rollercoaster ride for both the pair and onlookers. While they have been separated for a while now, Megan’s latest single, “Hiss,” has made the topic of their relationship a huge trend again. In the song, the rapper seems to fire shots at her ex-boyfriend, among others. Admittedly, the disses thrown at Nicki Minaj, who recently mentioned Pardi in her response to Megan, have received more attention. However, fans have equally been gagged by the venom Megan Thee Stallion spat at Pardison on “Hiss.” Here’s a timeline of their relationship.

Afterward, work brought the pair together again when Pardison contributed to Megan Thee Stallion and Cardi B’s song, “WAP.” Sometime in 2020, the two started talking, and their relationship soon bloomed into romance.
