Latto recently clapped back at Charleston White for criticizing her relationship with 21 Savage despite his previous reported marriage.

Folks online are still debating about 21 Savage and his marriage status, as some folks speculate his reported marriage to Keyanna Joseph, the mother of his two sons, was for visa purposes and may have resulted in a separation. This got more attention thanks to his relationship and newborn daughter with Latto, which Charleston White recently criticized online. Amid Big Mama's clap-back to White, the Slaughter Gang rapper showed her love and may have confirmed their status to fans.

Via an Instagram Story post, as caught by The Shade Room on Instagram, he shared his boo's recent post and wrote "WIFEY!!!" as the caption with various heart-eyed emojis. Some fans will see this as an outright confirmation of their status, while others will still have questions about Joseph. Regardless of their actual family dynamics (Joseph seems cool with the couple) or Savage's actual marriage status and timeline, fans are still scrutinizing the relationship and criticizing it.

Charleston White is among these fans. "Latto don't get no backlash for getting pregnant by a married n***a," he shared on social media. "Why do [Claressa Shields] have to have a problem with [Papoose] still being married like y'all do? [...] [Latto] was the side b***h that got pregnant…"

"I let y'all be loud and wrong for too long," the Atlanta femcee responded online. "I ain't f***ing no married man, b***h."

21 Savage's Marriage

For those unaware, Latto denied that 21 Savage was married, although she didn't go into much detail about it. She said it was his story to tell, and they have both flaunted their relationship and seemingly clapped back at these criticisms online.

21 reportedly married Keyanna Joseph back during his immigration situation, with some fans alleging the marriage was for visa purposes. However, no official confirmation of it has emerged at press time, nor statements on Savage's behalf confirming this. Other media figures like DJ Akademiks have also claimed to know some more information about the situation. He denied 21 was ever married, as caught by Livebitez on IG.

Regardless of all this drama, Latto and 21 Savage keep showing each other love and celebrating this new part of their lives. So we'll see if they have anything else to address. For now, Internet haters are getting responses, and they want to emphasize their happiness above all the gossip.
