While Star is loved for his makeup, he’s also known for his many public controversies. And it seems his rumored romance with Marhold involved plenty of drama.

Insider notes Star posted a photo to Marhold on his Instagram in August 2020. While Star seemed to conceal who the person was in the photo, internet sleuths figured out it was the basketball player via his unique arm tattoos.

Once the secret was out, Star posted other photos with Marhold, though Marhold’s online presence remained private for months. Fans, critics, and Marhold’s exes then weighed in.

An Atlanta-based makeup artist who was allegedly dating Marhold prior to Marhold’s relationship with Star also posted about it to social media. And another woman who claimed to be the mother of Marhold’s son wrote an emotionally-charged post regarding the news.

Later, even more allegations surfaced suggested Marhold was married when he and Star got together. But Star took to social media to dispel the rumors, claiming, “I didn’t steal anyone’s f*cking husband.”

Are Marhold and Star still together?

So, did Marhold and Star’s relationship withstand all the drama? It doesn’t appear so. According to Life & Style, Star took to Instagram Stories to suggest someone close to him in his life wasn’t who he thought he was.

“Listen. I’m sure a lot of y’all can relate, but sometimes when you meet people … SURPRISE. They’re not who they say they are,” Star shared on Instagram Stories back in September 2020. “So, I’ve been hanging out with someone. Just two grown adults having sex and chilling, nothing serious, but I was presented a whole different person than who this man really was.”

Then, Star noted he had some Louis Vuitton luggage, backpacks, and sunglasses missing. “This person secretly [had] no job, no money, not even a bank account,” he continued.

While Star noted all of his personal belongings could be replaced, the stealing, in general, appeared to be a deal-breaker.

“It’s just two adults that went their separate ways, but b*tch, can I have my sh*t back?” Star concluded. Marhold denied the allegations, though.

Rumors suggest Kanye West cheated on Kim Kardashian West with Star

Now, rumor has it that West and Star had some sort of romantic fling while West was married to Kardashian West. Page Six initially reported that Kardashian West was filing for divorce. “This divorce is happening because Kim has grown up a lot,” a source stated. “She is serious about taking the bar exam and becoming a lawyer, she is serious about her prison reform campaign.”

That’s not what one TikTok user suggested, though. TikTok influencer Ava Louise released a video claiming a source close to her stated West and Star were hooking up. “Kanye’s been hooking up with a very famous beauty guru — male beauty guru — a lot of people in the scene have known for a while,” Louise stated. She then noted that “a very good [source]” led her to that information.

We’re not sure if any of it’s true, but we’ll surely find out soon.
