TLDR
Megan Thee Stallion ended her relationship with NBA star Klay Thompson, citing trust and fidelity, as ex Pardison Fontaine resurfaced online with a Jagged Edge breakup anthem that fans are reading as a message to the newly single rapper.
The timing landed like a hook from a 1990s R&B song. On the same weekend, Megan Thee Stallion confirmed she had walked away from Dallas Mavericks guard Klay Thompson, her ex-boyfriend Pardison Fontaine quietly posted a video of himself singing “He Can’t Love U” by Jagged Edge.
No glossy production, no backing track. Just Fontaine, 36, crooning the 1999 hit a cappella for his Instagram followers, leaning into the song’s plea about a man who insists no one can love her the way he does.
“You should never wanna be with a man if he can’t be a man and do the things to you like I can,” he sang at one point. “I’m telling you, he can’t love you like I love you.”
Fontaine captioned the clip, \”JAGGED EDGE TOO UNDER8ED @official_je,” a nostalgic nod that doubled as a conversation starter. Within minutes, fans were convinced the subtext was aimed at Megan, 31.
Under the post, one follower wrote, “He want her back.” Another added, “It’s the timing for me,” while a third urged, “Get ya girl back,\” and someone else joked, “We see whatchu doing.”
Representatives for Fontaine and Megan did not respond to Page Six regarding the intent behind the video. For now, the only storyline is the one playing out in the comments.
Megan and Fontaine took their romance public in early 2021 and separated in 2023. The breakup arrived the same year she released “Cobra,” a raw single in which she sings about discovering infidelity. Listeners immediately linked the lyrics to their split.
Fontaine pushed back on accusations that he had been physically unfaithful. During an appearance on Angela Yee’s “Lip Service,” he drew a careful line between cheating and secrecy. “Is hiding text messages cheating on your partner? In that regard, I say [I cheated]. Inappropriate, correct,” he said, according to People, while insisting he was never intimate with another woman.
Megan now finds herself closing the chapter on another public relationship. Speaking to Page Six about her decision to end things with Thompson after nearly one year together, she chose direct, unambiguous language.
“I’ve made the decision to end my relationship with Klay. Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward,” she said.
That same day, she used Instagram to accuse the Mavericks star of cheating, anchoring the split in the same themes that have followed her love life for several years: loyalty, honesty, and how much a woman is willing to tolerate in the spotlight.
Against that backdrop, Fontaine’s choice of a late-1990s ballad about a man trying to out-love the competition lands with extra weight. It reads as nostalgia, but also as branding. He now appears as the ex who admits missteps and still leans into grand romantic gestures, while Megan publicly reinforces her boundaries around respect.
Whether Fontaine’s serenade was a pointed message or simply an R&B deep cut he wanted to celebrate, the silence from all three corners of this triangle keeps fans guessing. For now, the love story is unfinished, and the soundtrack is pure Jagged Edge.
