The pictures, which showed the actress lying on his lap and kissing his cheek has sparked rumours of them having a romantic relationship, with only time to tell.

The pair were seen cuddling and gazing into each other's eyes, even going as far as introducing each other to their own dads on stream.

Keke had been off-the-market for quite a while, separating from her last official ex-boyfriend and baby daddy, Darius Jackson, back in 2023.

One of her most viral moments was her fallout with her boyfriend at the time, after Darius publicly criticised her outfit choices in a viral ‘cherry’ moment with Usher.

The couple has one child together, Leodis, who was born in February 2023, and is Keke’s pride and joy.

She chose to separate from her baby daddy, after almost three years together, following allegations of physical abuse, for which she was granted a restraining order at the time.

They are said to have settled out of court, though, and now reportedly have a healthy co-parenting relationship.

Keke is most definitely back on the market, and fans think that Max could be the one she has set her sights on.

Her comments have been flooded with fans who aren’t sure about her potential next boyfriend.

One fan commented: “Keke you play too much 😂😂😂 but imma stick beside you sis.Another said: “I’m just happy you have the freedom to do whatever you want ❤️.”
