A Comprehensive List of Bow Wow’s Ex-girlfriends

Bow Wow andCiara (2005 to 2006)

Bow Wow's Girlfriend List, Dating and Relationship Timeline (1)

In 2005, the year Bow Wow turned 18, he began dating singer Ciara, who is two years older than he is. The two announced their relationship to the world after he featured her on his song titled “Like You” from his album Wanted. Their relationship lasted for a year before the pair decided to go their separate ways in 2006 amid reports that he was cheating on her. He famously spoke about the breakup in the song “Outta My System” featuring T-Pain from the gold-certified album, The Prince of Fame.

In 2019, Bow Wow faced backlash for referring to Ciara in a lewd manner. In July of that year, during a performance at a club where the song they made together was played, he yelled profanity, saying, “Yo, I had this b—h first. You know that, right?” in the middle of his performance.

Bow Wow andJoie Chavis (2010 to 2013)


Joie Chavis, a model, fashion designer, businesswoman, and founder of a lifestyle website named imrsfworkouts.com, where she encourages body transformations through healthy living, is another person to have famously dated Bow Wow.

Chavis and Bow Wow’s relationship began in 2010. After a year together, the couple welcomed a daughter named Shai on the 27th of April, 2011. The rapper kept his daughter’s existence a secret as he continued dating Chavis before breaking things off with her in 2013. It is not clear why they parted ways. Chavis has since gone on to have a child with another rapper, Future, who Ciara also has a son for. What a love triangle, right?

Bow Wow andAyisha Diaz (2014)

The next woman in the long list of women who have been in relationships with Bow Wow is Ayisha Diaz, a model and entrepreneur who owns an online shop for women’s clothes and accessories. She also owns an eyelash line.


The duo began dating after the rapper and his baby’s mother, Chavis, broke up. The relationship was, however, short-lived as they broke up in the same year they started dating each other. After the end of their relationship, Diaz took to social media to reveal that the rapper was repeatedly cheating on her. She further mentioned that he cheated on her with pornstars. She has since deleted those posts, but the implications of her words were not missed.

Bow Wow andErica Mena (2014 to 2015)

When Bow Wow and Ayisha Diaz stopped dating in 2014, he wasted no time in getting into a new relationship. This time, he began dating model and television personality Erica Mena, who is mostly known for being a member of the Love and Hip Hopcast.

In less than a year after they started dating, Mena got pregnant, and Bow Wow proposed to her, but tragedy struck. When she was in the fifth month of her pregnancy, Mena suffered a miscarriage. The pair did not survive the loss of the pregnancy as their relationship soon began to deteriorate. The ensuing breakup in 2015 was messy as it made the headlines of tabloid newspapers.


The former video vixen, who later married rapper Safaree Lloyd Samuels in 2019, went on to reveal that Bow Wow suffered from mental illness and had threatened to kill himself a couple of times. On one occasion, he threatened to do so even with her son from a previous relationship in the house.

Bow Wow andKiyomi Leslie Holden (2018 to 2019)

Bow Wow's Girlfriend List, Dating and Relationship Timeline (2)

In 2018, Bow Wow got into a relationship with social media star Kiyomi Leslie. The couple seemed to be a match made in heaven and was even believed to have gotten married secretly. In February 2019, however, all of this changed as the police arrested both of them on domestic violence charges.

After her arrest, Holden revealed that she had been physically abused by Bow Wow in the past and had even lost her pregnancy because of it. Pictures of their mugshot, however, showed the rapper to have sustained injuries on his face from the altercation. The two have since split up, and the rapper has remained single.

Besides these women, Bow Wow has allegedly had a short romantic relationship with other women, including Rev Runs’ daughter Angela Simmons, Simply Jess, Melody Thorton, Draya Michelle, and Kat Stacks. While some of these women denied any affair with the rapper, there were some who chose silence and allowed the public to speculate after they shared several loved-up pictures of them online.
