For Omarion and Apryl Jones, parenthood is only just beginning.
But their romance has come to an end.
The singer confirmed Sunday that he is no longer dating the Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood star…
… despite the fact that Jones gave birth to his child a mere four months ago.
“This is the only public statement I will make about a private matter,” Omarion wrote on Instagram, adding:
“After this, I will not speak on or respond to any questions or comments on the matter.
“I thank everyone in advance for respecting my wishes to keep my family life private.”
Here’s a look at the social media message:
Omarion and Apryl are actually the parents of two kids: son Megaa Omari is nearly two years old and daughter A’mei Kazuko is four months old.
Jones, known for her role on the aforementioned VH1 reality series, also confirmed the breakup, tweeting very simply and sadly:
“Single…. the end….”
Just three weeks ago, Omarion penned a heartfelt message on Instagram, praising Apryl as a mother.
She put put up with my Krazy,” he wrote at the time.
“Now we have crazy kids. Thank you for giving me the two best gifts ever! A’mei & Megaa. They changed me forever! & Maybe I don’t express my gratitude enough. I am rebuilding some things inside myself.
“With all that goes on in my world, I can depend on you. Because you’re solid. Thank you @aprylsjones just in case you needed a reminder on how awesome of a mother you’re.
“Looking at my time line I’am aware i could be dealing with someone way worst. Glad that’s not our situation.”
How did we go so quickly from THAT to THIS?
An insider tells E! News that Omarion and Apryl Jones “started to fade out of love,” explaining:
“This has been something they have been trying to work and build stronger for a while now. The traveling that Omarion had to do started to put a toll on Apryl.
“She is a great mother, and he will support her and his family.”
As for what’s next? The source says:
“She will be moving out and getting her own place.”
Let’s hope they continue to co-parent despite their relationship coming to an end. For the sake of their children.
