The Kid Laroi sparks rumours he’s SPLIT from TikTok star girlfriend Katarina Deme

They’ve been dubbed the new era’s Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez thanks to their adorable love story. 

But rumours are now swirling that Indigenous rapper The Kid Laroi, 17, has quietly called it quits with his glamorous TikTok star girlfriend Katarina Deme, 16, thanks to a cryptic Instagram post. 

Laroi, whose real name is Charlton Howard, sparked concern among his fans on Monday by uploading several photos of himself posing next to a tree, alongside the caption: ‘fvcklove3’.

Alarmed followers flooded the post with comments asking whether Laroi had split from  Katarina, with one writing: ‘Your girl broke up with you or something?’ 

‘You single now, Laroi?’ asked another fan, while another added: ”Where’s Katarina Deme?’ 

However, it seems the breakup rumour may be a false alarm, given that Laroi and Katarina still follow each other on Instagram and haven’t deleted any photos of each other on social media.

Instead, it’s more likely the hip-hop sensation was actually teasing the release of his third album. 

Laroi’s first commercial mixtape was titled ‘F*ck Love’, while his second album was titled ‘F*ck Love (Savage)’, so it’s likely his next album will contain the phrase ‘F*ck Love’ once more. 

It comes after Laroi spoke candidly to KIIS FM’s Kyle and Jackie O Show in February about his blossoming romance with Katarina, who boasts more than 760,000 followers on TikTok, and almost 900,000 on Instagram.

During the interview, Jackie ‘O’ Henderson said: ‘I’ve got to say, your girlfriend Katarina. She’s probably the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen – it’s insane how beautiful she is.’

Laroi laughed and replied: ‘I agree! We met through a mutual friend that I had when I came around here,’

‘Around the time that I met her, I just put out the whole F*ck Love project and was not in the vibe of love. But I guess… you can’t control some of that type of stuff. It was so ironic.’

Radio presenter Kyle Sandilands added: ‘Once again it’s proven that when you’re not looking, love comes along at the strangest time.’

‘100 per cent, I agree,’ Laroi replied.
