Young Thug is making headlines again after proclaiming his love for his "wife" on X (formerly Twitter). The Atlanta rapper, recently released from jail, tweeted, “I love my wife,” leading fans to speculate whether he was referring to his longtime partner, R&B singer Mariah The Scientist.

Despite the tweet, there’s no confirmation that Young Thug and Mariah The Scientist are officially married. While fans joked that Mariah might have taken his phone or that Thug was trying to make amends, the couple has not publicly addressed their relationship status.

Speculation about their relationship intensified after leaked jail calls from Thug’s time behind bars in the YSL RICO case suggested he may have been unfaithful. The rapper was heard having intimate conversations with multiple women, fueling rumors of tension between him and Mariah. Though he later apologized, neither he nor Mariah have spoken in detail about the controversy.

Adding to the conversation, fellow Atlanta rapper Lil Yachty recently admitted to mistreating Mariah in the past. Speaking with Shannon Sharpe, he confessed, “I was a s**t person to her… she was really great.”

While Thug's career remains on pause post-release, fans are eager to see what’s next—both in music and his personal life. Whether this tweet signals a fresh start with Mariah or just a public declaration of love, fans will be watching closely.
