Nicki Nicole's relationship history
Before Nicki Nicole's relationship with Peso Pluma, she was dating another rapper from Argentina. Although not much is known about her relationship with Mateo Palacios Corazzina a.k.a. Trueno, they dated for two years from 2020 to 2022.
In the following year, she worked with Peso Pluma on a remix of her song Por Las Noches. There were rumors of the two dating, and although they kept it on the down-low, the pair were seen kissing at one of her concerts in November 2023.
The collaboration was the result of Nicki posting one of Pluma's songs on her Instagram story in 2022. She wrote:
"Just thank you for making this song. It’s amazing how you describe everything I feel right now, you are very talented. Keep killing it."
He responded with:
"Thanks to my friend Nicki Nicole for posting me, for sharing the song. I say let’s do the remix."
After their collaboration, the couple was seen together more frequently, attending award ceremonies, red carpet events, and even basketball games.
However, in 2024, there were rumors that the two rappers broke up right before Valentine's Day. This came after fans noticed that she unfollowed Peso Pluma on Instagram and removed all of their photos together.
She also took to her Instagram story to write:
"Respect is a necessary part of love. What you love, you respect. What you respect, you take care of. When you're not taken care of and when there is no respect, I will not stay there. From there I will leave."
Nicole wrote the above statement a day after a video of her then-boyfriend holding hands with another woman at the Super Bowl in Las Vegas went viral. She ultimately confirmed the breakup during an interview with Billboard in March 2024.
Speaking about her personal life to Rolling Stone in 2024, she said:
"I haven't gone through the best time with my personal life going public, but I've realized that it's another thing I can't control... I don't like feeding people parts of my life so they can judge... My music does the talking. But I'm just a human, I'm just a person. People are going to find things out, and people are going to have opinions."
Nicki Nicole's love life has often been in the spotlight, from her past relationships with Trueno and Peso Pluma to her rumored romance with footballer Lamine Yamal. Despite the attention, she remains focused on her music, letting it speak louder than public scrutiny.
