43-year-old rapper Lil Wayne splits from 23-year-old Madi Cannon

Lil Wayne has confirmed that he and social media influencer Madi Cannon have ended their relationship while addressing fans during his “20 Years of Carter Classics” tour.

In a video shared online, the rapper spoke about several issues surrounding the tour, including speculation about his relationship and his absence from the opening show in Maine.

Wayne denied reports that he and Cannon were engaged, saying they had “a beautiful thing going” but decided to part ways because he did not want to be “such a burden on such an amazing person.”

Rumours of an engagement between the pair had circulated since May 2026, but the rapper clarified that they were never engaged. Wayne also explained that he missed the opening date of his tour due to severe migraines and concerns over the risk of seizures, which prevented him from performing.

Although he has since resumed the tour, some fans have expressed frustration after he arrived late for a concert in New Hampshire. His cancelled Maine performance has been rescheduled for July 28, while his next scheduled show is set to take place in Des Moines, Iowa, on July 16.
