The emerging rapper, Ice Spice, is often linked romantically with major artists, including her longtime friend, Drake. The two rappers, rumored to be dating back in 2022, are close friends and have never been romantically engaged with each other.
Drake and Ice first came across each other in August 2022. The God's Plan singer was impressed by Ice's works and approached her to tell how good the latest hit 'Munch' was. Drake was prepping for the OVO Fest at that time, and invited Ice to the event.
The two rappers flew to Toronto for the event together. Drizzy and Ice Spice were spotted at the venue by numerous fans, igniting unintentional dating rumors.

“Linking up with him was so cool. Like, he’s mad nice and respectful. We went to OVO Fest. It was exciting because it was like his first time performing in Toronto, I think in like a couple of years"
Spice further mentioned:
“The energy was high. Nicki performed, it was lit. Wayne did his thing. That sh*t was crazy.”
Ice Spice and Drake's dating rumors, other dating interests, and more
The dating rumors about Ice Spice and Drake didn't last long. Fans soon started talking about the bad blood between the two rappers when Drake unfollowed Ice on Instagram.
Drake's November 2022 release, Her Loss, also had fans speculating about a beef between the rappers as the track seemed to diss Ice with the verses:
“She a 10 tryna rap, it’s good on mute.”
While it was not confirmed if Drake was dissing Ice, the Bronx-born rapper responded by tweeting— “at least ima 10.”
Ice Spice cleared the misunderstanding on January 20, 2023, as she appeared for a New York Times interview. She mentioned that they were cool and even spoke with each other multiple times.
“We’re cool. We spoke after that a couple times and we’re good. There’s no beef.”
As per the March 2023 report from ComplexCa, Drake started following Ice Spice on Instagram around late February. The two rappers remain good friends to date and never shy away from praising each other in public.
Ice Spice has never been confirmed to be in a relationship with anyone and remains private about her dating partners. However, she has been reportedly linked with artists like:
Riot USA - 2024
Baby Storme, a singer claiming to be a friend of Ice took to X in April 2024 and shared long threads of texts hinting at how Ice had cheated on her then-boyfriend— Riot. Ice neither responded to the allegations made by Baby Storme nor addressed the rumors about her relationship with Riot. It was never confirmed if the rapper was in a relationship with her producer, Riot.
Lil Tjay - February 2023
The speculations about Lil Tjay and Ice Spice dating each other began in February 2023, with Tjay gifting an RM-05 Rose Gold Richard Mille watch worth $150K on Valentine's day.
A video of the watch posted by the jeweler had fans speculating the two rappers were in a serious relationship. However, Tjay and Ice later denied the relationship rumor as they confirmed the gift was for their successful collaboration on the single, Gangsta Boo.
Caleb Mclaughlin - September 2022
A September 2022 report from MediaTakeout linked Ice with the Stranger Things actor, Caleb Mclaughlin. The two had reportedly been seeing each other for a couple of weeks in 2022. Ice and Caleb were also spotted attending Cardi B's Fashion Night Out event together. The artists who parted ways for unknown reasons had not gone public with the relationship.
With Ice Spice and Drake strictly keeping up with each other as close friends, it can be said that they have never been confirmed to be in a romantic relationship. The Barbie World singer, however, has confirmed that she is no longer single.
