It turned out that the new passion of the striker is Megan Jovon Ruth Pete - a popular American performer, better known as Megan Thee Stallion. The artist is one of the brightest and most flamboyant stars of American rap. She is not afraid of bold creative experiments. Her official YouTube channel has several videos that have been viewed more than 100 million times. She has also recorded collaborations with the world's most famous pop stars: Nicki Minaj, BTS, Beyonce and Dua Lipa.
Earlier, the media reported that Megan broke up with rapper Pardison Fontaine, and Lukaku split with model Sarah Mens, the mother of his four-year-old son.
The girl began her journey as a rap performer by posting short freestyles on social networks. As a teenager, Megan told her mother that she wanted to dedicate her life to music.
Her mother supported her, but insisted that she get a degree first. Megan graduated from high school and went on to balance her music career and college studies.
The artist shot her first music video while in college. The video immediately went viral on social media.
Soon Megan had an army of fans, people came to admire her outstanding style. Then the singer got a creative nickname — the girl added the word "Stallion" to her name. The kids at school teased Megan with this word for her height and looks.
The singer's musical career is still progressing rapidly. Megan's discography currently consists of one studio album, three mixtapes, three extended plays, and 36 singles. "I'll take a break when I'm dead. I'm trying to really build something," says the 28-year-old artist. "When I start sitting, I feel like I’m not doing enough or I’m giving somebody else the opportunity to pass me."
Megan is First Black Woman on the Cover of Forbes
In 2021, Megan won three Grammy Awards, becoming the first female rapper of the 21st century to win Best New Artist. And in November 2022, the artist became the first black woman to appear on the cover of Forbes and its 30 Under 30 list.
The magazine estimated that Megan earned $13 million in 2022 from royalties, concerts, sponsorships and product sales. Lukaku earned about that much at Chelsea, but he took a 30 percent pay cut to return to Inter. At Milan, he earns about $8.5 million a year after taxes. So Megan could very well do without the financial support of the best player in Serie A in 2020/21.

Megan's story has a scary incident related to her past romantic relationship. There was a conflict in 2020, during which the artist's ex-boyfriend shot Megan twice in the leg.
During surgery, doctors successfully removed both bullets from Megan's body. The bones and tendons remained intact. Hopefully, the girl will feel completely safe with the Belgian football player.

It is unclear how long Romelu and Megan have been together, but it turns out that both are clients of the Roc Nation agency, owned by legendary rapper and producer Jay-Z. That's probably where they met.
It is worth noting that Megan has already dropped subtle hints about her new relationship. Earlier, the rapper shared a photo in the Inter stadium on social networks, making fans wonder why Megan would come to Italy. After the photos of the couple were published, it became clear that the artist was supporting her new boyfriend.
Megan actively shares her stunning photos and performance videos with her followers on her social media accounts. The artist's Instagram blog has about 31 million subscribers. By the way, her followers are now getting to know Lukaku. He's a sports superstar in Europe, but not as well known in the U.S., especially to fans of the country's top rap artist.
So far, neither Megan nor Romelu have made an official denial or confirmation of rumors that they are in a relationship, but she will surely cheer her boyfriend hard in the Champions League final in Istanbul, where Inter will face Manchester City on June 10.
