Later that day, another user @_Marnisha, republished Durk and Royale’s video and shared their opinion on the couple’s relationship.
“I’m just looking at them in disbelief because the whole world knows he had a child with you. This is insane. I no longer see pure and genuine love. This is a facade, but it’s cute,” they wrote.

User X’s opinion seemed to catch Royale’s attention. On Monday, June 24, Durk’s fiancee republished his words and apparently cleared things up.
Royale apparently claimed that Durk had not “had a child with her” recently. Instead, she explained that a woman was told her baby looked like hers and initially made a joke about it. Royale added that the joke apparently gave the woman “influence” and “she moved on.” Ultimately, Royale claimed that the internet “believed” the woman, which only fueled the perception that Durk abandoned their relationship.
“The whole world doesn’t know anything because this never happened. People said her baby looked like mine, so she joked about it. And since it gave her clout, she ran with it and you dusties believed her,” Royale posted.

A woman speaks apparently in response to the bride’s statements
Royale did not explicitly name the woman she was referring to in her post. However, in 2022, a woman named Destini Phillip went viral after posting a photo of her daughter that was socially compared to Royale and Durk’s daughter, Willow.
At the time, Phillip only appeared to fuel speculation that Durk was the father of her child.

However, on Tuesday, June 25th, Phillip went to X to seemingly address Royale’s statement and set the record straight.
“I was really trying my best to enjoy my vacation, but you guys mention it every 3 months. I can’t spend another year on this issue. I’ve spent the last 4 years being attacked because I chose not to post my bd and the joke is I’ll probably never do that, it’s none of your business,” she wrote.

Ultimately, the woman claimed that the social media posts allegedly originated from a fake account. Additionally, she said she never claimed Durk was the father of her child.
“All those posts that were made of me ‘talking’ about the situation were made from a fake page, but instead of digging for 1 second, you guys ran and dragged me…” she wrote.

Ultimately, Phillip insisted that Durk was not the father of his daughter.
Just because this has been happening for a long time
1. I know who my boyfriend is, there was never any doubt
2. My room was not in my bathroom
3. I never signed an NDA, you guys said that after I kept saying he wasn’t my boyfriend
4. Last but not least, this man is not my BD
Leave me alone now, please 🩷-Destini Phillip (@DestiniPhillip) June 25, 2024
