Angela Simmons<\/strong> is opening up about her 2025 split <\/strong><\/a>from longtime boyfriend, Yo Gotti, and dating after ending things with the devoted DM whisperer who \u201cmanifested\u201d their relationship.<\/p>\n

Angela Simmons shares what led to Yo Gotti breakup in 2025 on Funky Friday<\/em>.<\/h3>\n

During her March 27 interview with Cam Newton on his \u201cFunky Friday\u201d podcast,<\/a> Angela Simmons opened up about life after her highly publicized 2025 breakup with Yo Gotti. Fans may remember that Yo Gotti famously called Simmons his \u201ccrush\u201d in his 2016 track \u201cDown in the DM,\u201d which eventually led to them dating years later in 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Reflecting on the relationship, Cam Newton asked the Hollywood star bluntly:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cAfter that relationship, do you ever think that the crush should have just remained? The crush.\u201d<\/p>\n

Simmons responded with a resounding \u201cno.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, no, not at all. It\u2019s good, it\u2019s fine,\u201d she replied. Newton gave her a curious look, prompting her to laugh nervously.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat? What more are you looking for? It didn\u2019t need to remain the crush. Like, I had a great relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n

Newton then asked, \u201cWhat did that relationship teach you?\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cThat I\u2019d be a great wife,\u201d Simmons answered honestly.<\/p>\n

Newton wondered whether the breakup happened because Simmons thought Yo Gotti \u201cwould not be a great husband,\u201d but she quickly reassured him that wasn\u2019t the case.\u00a0<\/p>\n

So what ultimately ended things? The Growing Up Hip-Hop\u00a0<\/em>alum <\/em>explained that they simply weren\u2019t on the same page when it came to taking the next step in their relationship, presumably marriage.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cAt some point if it came to an end, it was just because I feel like, maybe he just wasn\u2019t ready,\u201d she explained.\u201dAnd then, we\u2019re not in the same space. But my relationship was great. Love him, love him down, love his family, respect them so. Maybe he wasn\u2019t ready.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Angela went on to reveal that she remains close to the rapper and his family. When Newton asked if she might give love a second chance with Yo Gotti, she said:<\/p>\n

\u201cI can do what God wants me to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Later in the conversation, Simmons shared that she has been \u201ctaking dates\u201d since the breakup but is still single. And for anyone hoping to win her over, she playfully added that gifts are welcome on a first date. When Newton asked about her type, following her brother Joseph Simmons\u2019 comment that she was into \u201cstreet dudes,\u201d<\/a> <\/strong>she clarified:<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m attracted to real. And so if the person is real, that\u2019s what it is. It\u2019s not even about just necessarily a street dude\u2026 I go by character, [the] type of person it is. It\u2019s so many other things that play into the equation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Simmons also revealed she\u2019s drawn to men who are protectors and providers and that she pays close attention to how someone \u201ccarries themselves\u201d to see if she\u2019s genuinely interested.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And when it comes to dealbreakers, dishonesty is a big red flag.<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t lie to me. You want to lie to me is stupid. Like cuz I rather just have a conversation with you. If you have something you need to hide, I don\u2019t like that,\u201d Simmons said flat out. \u201cCuz if I\u2019m putting everything on the table, you put everything on the table and we\u2019re all being honest here. Or if you feel like you want to do something that ain\u2019t right, like let me know. Put me in\u2026.I can handle the conversation and then let me figure out what I want to do with my time.\u201d<\/p>\n
