Megan Thee Stallion Gets a Powder Blue Bentley From Klay Thompson for Her Birthday

Megan Thee Stallion’s birthday came with a six-figure surprise this year: a custom powder blue Bentley from her boyfriend, NBA player Klay Thompson. The Grammy-winning rapper revealed the gift on Instagram, sharing photos of the car wrapped with a bow alongside a shot of herself holding the keys next to it.

A Birthday Season That Went Both Ways

The Bentley capped off what had already been a big couple of weeks for the two of them. Just days before Megan’s own birthday, she threw an elaborate celebration for Thompson’s birthday, known between the two as “Klay Day,” that included an intimate beach picnic where the couple walked along the shoreline together, followed by a private party featuring a custom cake, appearances from loved ones, a Michael Jackson impersonator, and a live performance from Bone Thugs-n-Harmony.

When Megan’s own birthday rolled around shortly after, the celebration continued in kind. She shared beach photos holding roses along with other images marking the day, and the final post in her carousel revealed Thompson’s gift: the powder blue Bentley, reportedly valued in the six-figure range. Fans reacted quickly across social media, both to the scale of the gift itself and to the couple’s willingness to celebrate it so publicly.

A Relationship Playing Out in Public

Megan and Thompson confirmed their relationship publicly in mid-2025 and have since made regular appearances together at events and across social media. In a January interview with People, Megan described feeling comfortable in the relationship and called Thompson kind and supportive. The Bentley is just the latest, and most visible, milestone in a relationship the two have continued to share openly with fans.

John Lloyd covers the messier side of the car world: celebrity garages, motorsports drama, and whatever strange automotive thing blew up online that week. He likes the spot where cars meet culture, and he'll tell you why a celebrity just dropped a fortune on a hypercar or why one model is suddenly all over your feed, usually with a little attitude. To John, a car is a status symbol or a money pit, and occasionally both.
