The Explosive Timeline: From Remy Ma Split to Claressa Shields Engagement
The relationship between Papoose and Claressa Shields emerged from the ashes of one of hip-hop’s most celebrated marriages. The 17-year union of Papoose and Remy Ma, which famously began while Remy was incarcerated, came to a very public and acrimonious end in 2025. The timeline of events involving all three parties is crucial to understanding the current drama.
1. The Tumultuous Split from Remy Ma (Late 2024 - May 2025)
Rumors of trouble in paradise for Papoose and Remy Ma began circulating in late 2024. The separation became public amid a controversial dispute involving battle rapper Eazy the Block Captain, who claimed a two-year affair with Remy Ma. While Remy Ma requested Papoose file for divorce, offering to pay for the legal fees, the situation escalated dramatically. Papoose officially filed for divorce in May 2025, citing infidelity and claiming Remy Ma had cheated on him "numerous" times.
2. The Public Debut of Papoose and Claressa Shields (December 2024 - Early 2025)
Despite the ongoing divorce proceedings, Papoose and Claressa Shields made their relationship public shortly after Remy Ma's announcement of the split in December 2024. Papoose was seen publicly supporting Shields at her fights, and the two began sharing "soft launch" posts on social media, confirming they were dating. Critics immediately questioned the timing, as Papoose was still legally married to Remy Ma.
3. The November 2025 Engagement Shockwave
The relationship accelerated rapidly throughout 2025. By September, the couple celebrated their first anniversary. Then, in November 2025, Claressa Shields announced her engagement to Papoose, flashing a significant ring on social media. This announcement came only six months after Papoose filed for divorce from Remy Ma, sending a shockwave through the entertainment industry and sparking a fresh round of controversy. The engagement signaled a definitive and permanent end to the possibility of a reconciliation between Papoose and Remy Ma.
The Ongoing Feud: Remy Ma's Explosive Reaction and Social Media Drama
The new relationship has not been without intense drama, largely fueled by a public feud between the estranged wife and the new fiancée. Remy Ma has repeatedly taken to social media and interviews to air her grievances, often directly targeting both Papoose and Claressa Shields.
Accusations of Fear and Fake Stories
The most explosive moments of the drama have occurred on social media. Remy Ma has publicly claimed that Papoose is "afraid" of his new girlfriend, the powerful boxer, and accused him of lying about their past interactions. Furthermore, Remy Ma claimed that Claressa Shields was "putting out fake stories" to make her look bad, a clear reference to the narratives surrounding the separation and the new relationship.
Public Breakdowns and Text Message Leaks
Following the engagement announcement in November 2025, reports and viral videos circulated showing Remy Ma breaking down in public. In a move that further escalated the situation, Remy Ma posted a series of private text messages between her estranged husband Papoose and Claressa Shields, attempting to expose details of their communication and relationship dynamics.
A New Partnership: Papoose and Claressa Shields' Creative Collaborations
Beyond the personal drama, Papoose and Claressa Shields have also merged their professional lives. Papoose, a respected figure in the New York hip-hop scene, has embraced his fiancée's world, often seen doing padwork drills with her and supporting her training.
More notably, the couple has confirmed they are working on new music together. Papoose has spoken about making music with Claressa Shields for his upcoming album, confirming a creative partnership that goes beyond simple celebrity dating. One track, "Bars on Wheels," has been mentioned as part of their journey to bring hip-hop back to its roots. This collaboration shows a commitment to building a joint legacy, not just a shared personal life, solidifying their status as a unique celebrity power couple in 2025.
The story of Papoose and Claressa Shields is a modern celebrity saga: a messy, public divorce, an unexpected, lightning-fast engagement, and a high-stakes feud playing out on social media. As Papoose’s divorce from Remy Ma awaits finalization, his engagement to the undisputed champion of the boxing world ensures that their story will remain a headline-grabbing topic well into the future.
