Past Fame of Daphne Joy
Daphne Joy has a notorious dating history and has been connected to several notable people throughout the years. The specifics of her relationship with the much older Finnish-Canadian businessman Peter J. Nygrd are unknown, although he was one of her first hookups. She had a fleeting romance with American actor Tyrese Gibson in 2011. She soon began dating 50 Cent, a rapper whose full name is Curtis James Jackson III. It lasted for more than one and a half years, making it one of her longest relationships. Sire Jackson, a child she had with the rapper, was even born in 2013. When she accused him of assaulting her at home, their relationship took an unexpected turn. On June 23, 2013, he allegedly broke into her Toluca Lake condo and assaulted her bodily. Before leaving, he also allegedly ruined $7,100 worth of stuff. He was accused by police of four charges of vandalism and one case of domestic violence. After he entered a no-contest plea to a misdemeanor mischief charge, the domestic violence allegations were ultimately withdrawn. The rapper, who at first refused to even admit having a child with her, recently endorsed her swimsuit line on Twitter, referring to her as the mother of his child and igniting suspicions of their reconciliation. It appears that things have improved for the couple since that time. Daphne, who dated Jason Derulo from November 2015 to May 2016, made the decision to end their relationship amicably in the interim. She apparently spent a brief time in a relationship with reality TV star Rob Kardashian in late 2013.
