For decades, Kendrick Lamar has been in a relationship with his fiancée, Whitney Alford.

The couple, who met during their teenage years at Centennial High School in Compton, California, now have two children together — their daughter, Uzi, and their son, Enoch.

"Everybody that's been around me has been around since Day 1 and I can't change that. I don't change for nobody," Lamar expressed during an interview on the New York radio station Power 105.1. "People that have been by your side — you're supposed to honor that."

The couple made their first public appearance in 2014 at the Grammy Awards, marking their red carpet debut. While they have kept many details of their romance private, Lamar is said to have been rapping about Alford since the early days of his career.

In his 2009 EP, "Kendrick Lamar," songs like "She Needs Me" and "Determined" feature lyrics about a woman who completes him, describing her as a powerful and encouraging force in his life.

Despite her more than 52,000 Instagram followers, the makeup artist is not very active on the platform. However, in a recent post, she opened up about her mental health journey and her children.

The Allegations

Amidst the ongoing feud between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, several allegations surrounding Kendrick and his fiancée have surfaced online.

In Drake’s song “Family Matters,” he suggests that Whitney may be unhappy in her marriage with Kendrick, implying that she cheated on Kendrick and had a child with his longtime partner, Dave Free:

“Your baby mama captions always screamin', "Save me"/ You did her dirty all your life, you tryna make peace/ I heard that one of 'em little kids might be Dave Free”

On Drake’s latest track, “The Heart Part 6,” he maintains similar allegations, suggesting that Kendrick may not have a close relationship with his wife or kids, while also pointing out that Whitney has now unfollowed Kendrick on Instagram:

“And why isn't Whitney denyin' all of the allegations?/ Why is she following Dave Free and not Mr. Morale?/ You haven't seen the kids in six months, the distance is wild/ Dave leaving heart emojis underneath pics of the child”

Drake also drops an allegation that Kendrick may be physically abusing Whitney:

“And Whitney, you can hit me if you need a favor/ And when I say I hit you back, it's a lot safer"
