Kevin Gates has urged his ex-wife, Dreka Gates, to come clean about their relationship in a new social media post.
In a reel posted to Instagram, the Really Really rapper denied being a deadbeat dad to their two children, and accused his former spouse and her family of stealing his money.
“Aye Drek, I challenge you to tell people that we had an Islamic marriage,” the rapper said in the clip.
“I challenge you to tell people that my children lived with me for the past two years. I challenge you to tell people that you didn’t file for divorce, or whatever you call divorce, until I stopped giving you money because you and your family had been stealing from me the whole time.”
The rapper alleged that Dreka stole money to start a dispensary, which has since closed.
The ex-spouses divorced last year after 10 years of marriage.
“I take care of my children and I was still taking care of you while you were with that n**ga,” the rapper went on, a reference to an affair Dreka was rumoured to have had, but which she denies.
Dreka, who owns and operates a 43-acre farm in Mississippi, petitioned for $46,274 (£34,570) in monthly spousal and $27,193 (£20,315) per month in child support in a legal filing last October, and claimed that her ex-husband had been financially negligent.
The former couple met as teenagers around 2003. They welcomed children in 2012 and 2014, and married in 2015. Dreka filed for divorce in July 2025, citing irreconcilable differences, after more than 20 years together.
