Does Summer Walker Have a New Boyfriend?
Summer Walker made a major splash at the 2025 MTV VMAs in New York City when she arrived—smiling, holding hands, and feeding cotton candy to a silver-haired, older white man who’s sent the internet into an absolute frenzy. Seriously, you could hear the collective “Wait, what?!” echo across social media the moment they showed up together. Diancaglamqueen teased on Instagram The Auntitote Show, hinting at mystery vibes with Summer Walker and a wealthy gentleman, leaving fans intrigued.

Nobody seems to know exactly who this guy is yet, and between memes dubbing him “older white daddy” and fans speculating about whether he’s her new “old daddy” or maybe secretly a billionaire art dealer, the jokes and wild guesses haven’t let up. User @YSLONIKA sparked curiosity on Twitter by questioning if Summer Walker has a new wealthy, older boyfriend, fueling fresh buzz around the singer’s love life.
Summer Walker also shared on Instagram with the white man:

The two looked genuinely affectionate, like their own rom-com, and in a sea of bored red carpet pics, their playful PDA definitely stood out. People haven’t seen Summer pop up with a new boo since her split from rapper Rico Recklezz earlier this year—which, of course, had its own round of online drama and debates (“Was it over music? Was it personal?”).
That breakup made the hip-hop blogs for weeks, with everyone dissecting their relationship, so the energy around Summer’s new man is even wilder. Personally, it’s kind of refreshing to see her out with someone who isn’t already hip-hop famous or deep in the internet rumor mill.
It’s early days, but this mysterious romance proves nobody can predict Summer’s next move, and honestly, the internet’s nosy obsession might be the most entertaining subplot of the VMAs—who knew a cotton candy moment could spark such heated debates? Whether this guy is her boyfriend, a friend, or some secret business mogul, fans are glued to every update, and in a world where the smallest celebrity couple moment can go viral, Summer Walker just flipped the script—again.
