Young Thug Confirms Breakup With Mariah The Scientist Following Jail Call Scandal

The speculation is officially over. Hip-hop star Young Thug has confirmed that his high-profile relationship with R&B singer Mariah The Scientist has ended, bringing a close to one of the music industry's most talked-about couplings.

The pair, first linked in the fall of 2021, quickly became a celebrity mainstay, with Mariah notably standing by Thug throughout the turbulence of his ongoing RICO trial, often attending court hearings. Their bond, however, could not withstand a devastating revelation.

The Cheating Confession That Fractured the Relationship

The split comes on the heels of leaked recorded phone calls from jail that surfaced earlier this month. In the clips, Thug admitted to being unfaithful to Mariah just before his May 2022 arrest.

Following the viral spread of the audio across social media, the Atlanta rapper issued a highly public apology, pleading for a second chance. "My baby I was wrong and I’m sorry for what I put u through," he wrote. "U deserved better from me. Thank you for everything and I will do anything to make this work. U showed me what love is and I hope I haven’t lost u forever… everybody leave her out of this please she’s an innocent girl and feels bad about all of this. Please give her peace."

Mariah's Silence Speaks Volumes

While Thug's apology was a clear attempt to rebuild their shattered connection, Mariah The Scientist has maintained a notable silence. The "Spread Thin" singer has avoided direct public statements about the breakup, yet her actions hint strongly at a decision to move on permanently.

Fans noted a small but powerful detail during New York Fashion Week where she carried a phone case adorned with Young Thug’s picture, sparking debate—was it a quiet statement of lingering affection or simply holding onto a memory? Given the singer’s reputation for channeling raw emotion into her music, all signs—from her public appearances to her official silence—suggest the chapter is closed.

For Thug, who recently confirmed the breakup, the path to salvaging what they once had looks deeply uncertain as Mariah seems focused on charting her future solo.
