Lil Wayne made headlines last week when he became the latest rapper to endorse President Donald Trump. Now it’s been reported that his girlfriend Denise Bidot broke up with him due to his political views but she has denied the viral claim.
The 38-year-old hitmaker has been blissfully dating the plus-sized model for months, but sources claimed they split shortly after he revealed that he met with the Republican presidential incumbent just days before the 2020 general election on Nov. 3 and posted tweets gushing about their time together.

“She broke up with Wayne. It wasn’t just his Trump support, but that was a big part,” said the source.
They went on to explain that the Puerto Rican and Kuwait bombshell “was shocked when she saw Wayne come out with Trump. She’s so disappointed in him.”
However, the model denied the rumors in a social media post.
“I did not. This is absolutely false,” she posted.
Over the weekend, Bidot took to her Instagram account to post, “Sometimes love just isn’t enough [HEARTBROKEN EMOJI]” and then deleted her account altogether. Before her dejected departure from social media both she and the rapper unfollowed each other, further substantiating the claims that the election tore them apart.

As we previously reported, last Thursday, the New Orleans hip-hop star shared a photo of he and Trump standing side by side as they smiled with their thumbs up.
“Just had a great meeting with @realdonaldtrump @potus,” wrote Wayne, real name Dwayne Carter Jr. He continued, “…besides what he’s done so far with criminal reform, the platinum plan is going to give the community real ownership.”
“He listened to what we had to say today and assured he will and can get it done.”
Trump later went on the record to state that Lil Wayne requested a meeting with him and also complimented him as an “activist” and “nice guy.”
“He wanted a meeting. He’s a really nice guy. He’s really an activist in a positive way and he asked for a meeting and as you saw, the meeting went very well,” Trump said.
