Lil Wayne Calls Ex-Girlfriend Madi Cannon His Fiancée

Three months after saying he was single, Lil Wayne introduced 23-year-old Madi Cannon as his fiancée in a FaceTime video, outlets report.

While congratulating B.G. on his engagement to Brooke Jones, Wayne turned the camera toward Cannon and said, "And I'm marrying this one. This is Madison. This is my fiancée." He then joked, "Let us know what color we're wearing. I'm the best man, you hear me?" B.G., 46, captioned the post, "My lil Brodie gave me his blessings @liltunechi."

The announcement came just months after Wayne publicly denied being engaged and said he had split from the woman in question. UNILAD reports that during a livestream in July, Wayne said, "No, I'm not engaged. I had a beautiful thing going on with an amazing person... we decided to part. The turnaround from confirmed breakup to apparent engagement is what makes the story a reversal fans are dissecting.

Cannon, also known online as "Madi K," is a social media influencer from Kokomo, Indiana, with more than 79,000 Instagram followers, according to Us Weekly and UNILAD. Few details about the relationship are public; USA TODAY, via Yahoo Entertainment, notes Wayne has kept it very private and that his representatives were contacted for comment. The Business Upturn reports she is roughly 21 years younger than Wayne, who celebrated his 44th birthday on September 27, just days before the clip circulated.

The Mirror US and Irish Star report the announcement sparked sharp criticism on social media over the age difference. The Mirror US quotes one X user asking, "What kind of conversation do you have with a 23-year-old when you're 44?" and another noting Wayne's daughter Reginae Carter, 27, is four years older than his fiancée. Others, per the Mirror, joked the relationship "has more plot twists than a Netflix series" after the breakup and rapid reunion.

Multiple outlets, including Page Six and The Mirror US, resurfaced claims made by Wayne's ex-girlfriend, plus-size model Denise Bidot, in May 2025. Page Six reports Bidot said on Instagram Stories that Wayne broke up with her on Mother's Day and kicked her and her daughter out of his house, and that in a separate video she alleged physical abuse, saying, "this man has actually laid a f–king hand on me," and that she knew other women he had put his hands on. These are allegations reported by the outlets; Wayne has not responded in the pack's reporting.

No wedding date, location, or formal statement has been released, according to The Bulletin Time, which notes neither side's representatives have officially confirmed the engagement beyond the video. The context of B.G.'s own proposal adds to the moment: UNILAD reports B.G. proposed to Brooke Jones live onstage during the Cash Money–No Limit arena tour's New Orleans stop, prompting Wayne's celebratory FaceTime. Fans can likely expect any future updates through social media rather than formal announcements.
