Whew!It looks like Mario found someone to let him love her! But after the singer shared a video of his boo on Instagram, social media started cuttin’ up with reactions.
Mario shared a short clip of a woman sitting in what looks like the passenger seat of a vehicle. He added two red heart emojis to the post and the song ‘The Sweetest Thing’ by Refugee Camp All-Stars.
In the video, the woman peeps at Mario, seemingly blushing at the attention. The music drowns out spoken audio in the clip. However, his rumored bae is seen cheesing at the camera.
Watch the potential baewatch moment below.
The identity of the woman in Mario’s post is unknown, given that the singer doesn’t play games about his privacy. He did not tag her in the post and doesn’t appear on his IG feed posts for the entire 2023.
The last relationship update from Mario — shared by The Shade Room — is dated January 2021. The singer and Kris Stephens made their Instagram debut after Kris shared Mario’s efforts for her birthday. He went all out with a flower and balloon display, a trip, a chef, and gifts!
It’s unclear if Kris and the woman Mario posted this week are the same person. Check out the 2021 post below.
