In early July, rumors started to circulate suggesting that rapper Ice Spice and U.K. rapper Central Cee are in a romantic relationship. Speculations began after the two were spotted shopping together in London and driving in Cee's Lamborghini. Ice Spice then further fueled the rumors by posting a picture on her Instagram Story with the same car, tagging the location as London.
Central Cee, whose real name is Oakley Neil Caesar-Su, was born and raised in West London. His father is Guyanese, and his mother comes from a well-to-do Irish family. Growing up, Central Cee faced financial challenges as his mom rejected her privileged upbringing. However, his mother's influence led him to explore poetry at a young age, which eventually paved the way for his music career.
In 2017, Central Cee began releasing music, but it was in 2020 that he gained significant recognition with a number two album on the charts. He became particularly popular on TikTok, where a line from his viral hit "Doja" became a sensation. Central Cee also made headlines by attending Louis Vuitton's menswear show during Paris Fashion Week, where he sat next to pop music star Sabrina Carpenter and played his Nintendo Gameboy.
Ice Spice and Central Cee have been friends and collaborators for a few years. In an interview with Complex Magazine in October 2023, Central Cee spoke highly of Ice Spice, stating that she reminded him of himself and praising her humility and ambition. Similarly, Ice Spice has expressed her admiration for Cee and their friendship, mentioning their collaboration on the song "Munch (Remix)."
Central Cee has also been linked romantically to British influencer Madeline Argy. As for Ice Spice, there have been rumors of her dating her longtime producer, RiotUSA.
