Why Is Thee Stallion Cutting Her Broadway Debut Short?
Although Megan Thee Stallion didn’t explain her early departure, the internet is speculating her split from Klay Thompson is one reason. It’s unclear when Meg and Klay’s relationship issues began. However, in her breakup post, she accused him of having mood swings and treating her horribly during his NBA season, which ran from late October to April.
Fans are also speculating that her hospitalization in late March was due to issues with Thompson as well. As previously reported, Megan received treatment after becoming ill and faint during her performance on March 31. She later revealed her symptoms were due to exhaustion, dehydration and low metabolic levels. After a rest day, she returned to the stage but called the moment a “wake-up call.”
