Fans recently spotted a mystery woman in Darren “IShowSpeed” Watkins Jr’s Instagram story, leading to speculations the streamer has a girlfriend.
IShowSpeed is a popular streamer known for his daring stunts and entertaining interactions, including hilarious face-offs with street dogs. His unique content has garnered 32.3 million YouTube subscribers. While he shares a big chunk of his life online, he’s managed to keep his romantic life under wraps until recently. Rumors of IShowSpeed being in a romantic relationship went off when he shared an Instagram story with a mystery woman wearing a Manchester United jersey with “Speed” and the number 7 on the back.
As a result, fans may know who IShowSpeed is dating at the moment.
IShowSpeed’s girlfriend is believed to be Vanessa Anne Williams, a 20-year-old actress and social media influencer.
Recently, a clip of IShowSpeed celebrating the birthday of his alleged girlfriend went viral on social media. The woman in the clip is Vanessa, who turned 20 on October 6, according to her social media. She also has the same hair as the girl in IShowSpeed’s Instagram story. Later, the streamer reacted to rumors, confirming that he was indeed dating someone, but didn’t confirm her identity.
“Do I have a girlfriend? Yes. Yes, I do. Yes, I am talking to somebody, chat. Yes, I am. And no, y’all not about to meet her yet,” said IShowSpeed.
Vanessa has been acting since a very young age, and while she’s not the most active on social media, she has a solid following of 945,000 on Instagram. She is now embroiled in the mystery surrounding IShowSpeed’s girlfriend. She is rumored to be the woman in question, though neither party has confirmed the connection.
The birthday video clarifies speculation surrounding IShowspeed’s personal life. Previously, fans suspected a romantic connection between the streamer and Yakshinee, an influencer he met on Sidemen’s 20 vs 1 show. The speculation stemmed from Yakshinee’s Instagram profile picture, where she wears the same Manchester United jersey as the woman in IShowspeed’s story. However, a quick date check reveals that the image is extremely old and likely unrelated to IShowspeed.
