Dreka Shut Cheating Rumors All The Way Down
The entrepreneur and wellness advocate recently addressed long-standing rumors that she was romantically involved with her female personal trainer. The gossip dates back to 2022, when her estranged husband first hinted at relationship issues in his freestyle, ‘Super General.’
More recently, a user left comments under an Instagram post, asking why she cheated on Kevin with a “personal trainer that he hired.” Dreka then responded on her Instagram story, and according to her, there’s no truth to the speculation. She firmly denied the claims and clarified that she only dates men.
“I have NEVER had any type of sexual or romantic encounters with my personal trainer or any ‘hired help’ and will NEVER. And just to make it CLEAR, sorry ladies but I am strictly about the [eggplant emoji] and I do not do plastic…”

A Background On Dreka & Kevin’s Relationship
Dreka and Kevin Gates share a long, complex relationship that spans over a decade. The two officially tied the knot in 2015 but were together over a decade before then. Dreka played a major role in Kevin’s personal growth and career as his manager and business partner. Throughout their relationship, they often portrayed a united front, embracing spirituality and family.
However, by 2022, the rapper apparently implied they split as fans noticed fewer joint appearances and cryptic social media posts.
While they haven’t publicly confirmed a legal divorce, Dreka and Kevin appear to be living separate lives. Kevin has since been romantically linked to influencer and reality star Brittany Renner, sparking new conversations online about his relationship status. Dreka, on the other hand, has kept a lower profile, focusing on her wellness brand and personal projects.
