Claressa Shares Vacation Selfie With Papoose
On Sunday (February 16), Shields shared a selfie of her and Pap standing in what looks like beachside waters on her Instagram Stories. Both of them had their pearly whites on full display as Papoose posed behind his new lady, and she snapped the photo. While she wore a gold triangle bikini top, Pap opted for a full fit—from the black New York cap to a Burberry black tee and black shorts. Needless to say, his outfit choice had social media cuttin’ up. Claressa even had her vacation braids in! However, it’s still unclear if the trip was a vacation or a family-friends affair.
In additional posts on her IG Stories, Claressa also filmed herself having drinks and walking through what looks like a hotel with another woman on Sunday.
Meanwhile, posts from Monday (February 17) show Claressa and Papoose at the Hawai’i Fest 2025 the day before. The line-up features artists like Ashanti, Sean Paul, Ja Rule, and YG Marley. When Papoose took the stage with CuhDeeJah, Claressa cheered him on as she watched from the crowd! While he shared footage from the festival, it doesn’t appear that he shared any content with her new lady.
Social Media Reacts To Couple’s New Selfie
After TSR reposted Papoose and Claressa’s beach selfie, over 9,000 roomies shared various reactions in the comment section.

“Pap if you happy we happy,” @keepinupwitreesie added.
Meanwhile, @lawrencec3h joked, “You Can take dudes outa New York but you can’t take New York outa dudes. My guy at the beach with the baby father baby shower startup kit.”
@ericaaaroseee reminisced, writing, “Wow who would’ve thought him & Rem would be separated. Life really comes at you fast. I’m happy for him though ❤️”
“A man w a hat n fully clothed on a beach is puzzling to me !! Other than that positive vibes to the couple,” @artlaurea said.

And while the internet continues to chit-chat about Papoose and Claressa, she appears unfazed by the haters. She’s already told her fans that it’s more than a fling with her boo. It’s upgraded LOVE on both ends–her words, not ours!
“…because I think we both feel like we both upgraded. But it’s not about feeling like if you upgraded or downgraded, it’s about you feeling like you with somebody you really love,” Shields said earlier this month.
