Moneybagg Yo’s girlfriend Ari Fletcher has revealed that she’s been married for the last two years.
A follower attempted to shame Fletcher for showing off her body in photos, claiming that proved she wasn’t wife material. Ari flipped the script on Friday (November 10) to shut up the hater, when she said heard wedding bells ringing some time ago.
“I love Ari but a man not gone marry a women who post her body all over the internet,” the person wrote. Ari clapped back: “I’ve been married for 2 years.”

Fans had plenty to say about the admission, as many assumed that meant Ari and Bag have walked down the aisle together.
“Cleared her faster than Amazon Prime,” one fan wrote, while another chimed in: “& This is why y’all need to mind yall business when it comes to my good sis.”
However not everyone believed that Moneybagg Yo put a ring on it.
“Ari be capping so much,” a fan said, while another claimed Fletcher had said that she didn’t want to get married “anytime soon” during a recent interview.
Ari Fletcher and Moneybagg Yo don’t have any kids together, but she co-parents a son, Yosohn, whom she had with G Herbo in 2018.
Last month Ari admitted that she wanted another baby, but didn’t want to go through the stresses of pregnancy again.
“I been kind of feeling like I want a baby but I just don’t wanna be pregnant for that long and get that big,” she added.
Moneybagg Yo made his love for Ari permanent over the summer when he got her name “Ariana” tatted behind his ear. They met back in 2019 and confirmed they were a couple in 2020.
The new ink came after the “Wockesha” rapper had to fight to get back on Ari Fletcher’s good side earlier this year after he got caught cheating.
Bagg sat down for an in-depth conversation with Angie Martinez in May for her IRL podcast. While affirming at the time that he and Ari were in a committed, monogamous relationship, Bagg broke down the challenges they’ve had to overcome.
“I’ve made mistakes. I’ve made poor decisions,” he began. “And that’s why I rock with her so tough, like – she’s helping me through the situation. I look at it like I was just being a n-gga, and a n-gga that come from Memphis and my environment. That’s what I was used to. I had never been in no real relationship before. I had never been in no real relationship to where I’m talking to her all night, I’m checking in.”
“It’s so new to me. It’s a big transition so of course I made some mistakes. You already know what I’m getting at with that. She ain’t take that well. And it got crazy too … It’s different when you have the person call them and try to tell them everything … That made it even worse on her. But I kept it g [and apologized].”
At the BTS concert in Tokyo on Friday (April 17), j-hope opened up to ARMY with heartbreaking news. His grandmother, who played a major role in raising him and had always been proud of his journey with the group, has passed away.
Speaking to the packed crowd at the Tokyo Dome, the K-pop star chose to be open with fans about what he was going through. “Honestly, this might be a bit of a heavy thing to share, but I really wanted to express how I’m feeling today,” he said, translated from Korean into English. “Right after we arrived in Japan, I got the news that my maternal grandmother, the one who raised me from when I was little, had passed away.”
“I felt completely stunned and did not really know how to process it at first, but being around the members, sitting down together for meals, and focusing on rehearsals helped me more than I thought it would,” j-hope went on. “My grandmother was always incredibly proud, not just of me but of all the members. She truly believed in what we do. So I feel like if she was watching from above today, she would have loved every second of it.”
He closed by thanking the audience for making his first performance after the loss feel meaningful and full of support.
BTS are currently touring in support of their new album ARIRANG, which has just earned a third week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Following three opening shows in Goyang, South Korea, the group is set to perform twice at the Tokyo Dome before heading abroad for the North American leg. Before the tour wraps in March next year, they will also visit Latin America, Europe, Australia, and several other regions across Asia.
On the same day as the first Tokyo concert, j-hope’s solo interview with Rolling Stone was released. During the conversation, he spoke about stepping into a leadership presence within the group. “I think that’s my role on the team,” he shared. “It just comes naturally. It feels strange to even call it a role, but I just try to handle things as they come and support the other members in any way I can.”
