One of the many things fans loved about the late rapper was his enduring relationship with London. In 2013, London saw her future lover when she was buying Hussle’s limited edition mixtape for her co-stars on a BET series. They were selling for a whopping $100 each.
After London got her hands on the mixtapes, she started following Hussle on Instagram, and he followed her back and slid into her DMs, and the rest is history. In 2016, after dating for three years, Lauren and Nipsey welcomed a son named Kross Asghedom.
They also raised Hussle’s daughter from a previous relationship and London’s son with Lil Wayne together. The pair briefly split in November 2017, claiming that it was a mutual decision and focused on co-parenting.
But a few months after, they sparked reconciliation rumors after they were spotted at a Los Angeles Lakers game together and Hussle’s private debut album release party. The couple’s 5-year long relationship was living proof that storybook romances existed.
For proof, look no further than the beautifully moving eulogy London read aloud at his funeral.
I want you to know I feel real joy in my heart when I’m around you. I feel safe around you. Protected.
