‘We Been Knew This’: Alexis Skyy Fans Not Surprised After She Seemingly Breaks Up With Boyfriend Trouble

It looks like “Love and Hip Hop: New York” star Alexis Skyy and her boyfriend Trouble are heading toward Splitsville.

The pair dragged fans into their relationship drama this weekend after Skyy claimed she was “single” in a now-deleted caption on a photo posted to her Instagram on Sunday evening. Seconds later, she changed her original caption to several heart emojis and was instantly called out by her followers.

“You changed that caption fast af 😭😭,” one person commented to which Skyy replied, “Its was a typo. … my friends playing on my phone 😂.”

Another fan tagged Trouble in Skyy’s post and asked why she was trying to “play” him, and that’s when all chaos broke loose between the twosome.

“Nobody played with him he played with himself,” the 25-year-old model wrote. “I been nothing but loyal n real some people just not ready or often sell us dreams it’s life 🤷🏽.”

In response to Skyy’s remarks, the “She a Winner” rapper accused her of clout-chasing and responded, “She doin it for gram as they always do. Im bool! Let her have her fun. I’ll neva dis her name. Jus ain’t for me”

If that wasn’t already bad, Skyy revealed that Trouble hadn’t called or texted her in two days while he spent the weekend in Las Vegas.

“Don’t f–king play with me,” she replied to Trouble. “It’s sad that you can comment to Instagram s–t but you can’t call or text me for 2 days cause you in Vegas. Do what you do 🖤”

Details about the couple’s dating history are unknown, but according to an old Instagram picture posted on Trouble’s page, they were spotted together around July 16. It seems they were only dating a few months and made their relationship public in August, a day before their cucumber-themed pool party.

The couple’s apparent breakup comes days after they posted a video claiming they were still “going strong.”

“We’re still rocking real strong now,” Trouble said on Sept. 16. “I know y’all waiting on this s–t to fail. … Eat up lil baby eat eat. …”

Social media users, however, don’t seem a bit surprised at the pair’s supposed split.

“One minute you shoving cucumbers in women together the next you tossed like the cucumbers in the salad 😩😂 🥒 we been knew this sis…”

“They were only together for like 2 days lmao. She need to stop dating thugs”

“That was fast damn sis u cut your hair for him🤣. he seems manipulative and abusive . Let it go sis.”

“Lmfao, what she thought was gonna happen?! #Dummy. … Idk why y’all geek them type of relationships up anyway😂 y’all should know better by now 🤷🏽‍♀️”

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
