Ice Spice fuels rumors she’s split from NFL star Sauce Gardner after being seen with another athlete


Ice Spice has sparked breakup rumors from her NFL boyfriend Sauce Gardner – as she was spotted with another athlete on Monday.

The rapper and Gardner went ‘Instagram official’ over the spring as they showed each other off on social media, and stepped out in public together as they attednded a Knicks playoff game.

But the pair have not been spotted together in the last few weeks and Ice Spice was seen with Overtime Elite basketball player Diamant Blazi on Monday in Los Angeles.

As seen in a photo from the outing, the potential couple were seen leaving West Hollywood restaurant Cecconi’s.

However, it’s unclear what the nature of the relationship is between the pair.

A source told TMZ that they were just ‘enjoying time together’ – without elaborating further.

The outing comes less than a month after Ice Spice and Gardner were seen vacationing together in Lake George, New York. 

While Jets star Gardner is known by NFL fans as one of the top cornerbacks in the league, Blazi is also a household name in his own right.

The French basketball player is considered a high-level prospect, and also has a massive TikTok following of over 7.3million followers.

It’s been roughly three months since Ice Spice and Gardner publicly flaunted their romance courtside at Madison Square Garden, as they watched the Knicks defeat the Celtics in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals on May 16.

The pair were also spotted together on other occasions, as the musician posted a mirror selfie of the pair to her Instagram.

Gardner also included a photo of himself with Ice Spice in an Instagram carousel, with the pair standing by a grey Rolls-Royce on a New York street.

The Jets star tagged Ice Spice in the pictures with the Bronx native commenting, ‘1,’ – the football star’s jersey number.

They reportedly attended Druski’s ‘Coulda Been Love’ YouTube series premiere party together as well as the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscars bash in March.

While the Jets had a disappointing 2024, the ‘Munch’ artist remained around the NFL as she attended the Super Bowl with her friend Taylor Swift.

Following the hiring of Aaron Glenn as the team’s new head coach, there are hopes that the Jets can improve on their 5-12 record from last year.

Gardner and Gang Green will begin their season on September 7 when they host Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers.
