Rapper, Kash Doll confirmed that she has parted ways with her boyfriend, Za'Darius, after mutual agreement with him. Amid her split, here's everything you must know about her love life.
Rapper and actress, Kash Doll confirmed that she and NFL defensive end, Za'Darius Smith have officially parted ways. The news came on August 10, 2025, when Kash took to X to post that she feels a strong need to be single at this point of time in her life. The rapper acknowledged that Za'Darius is a good person, but they can't be with each other and have decided to part ways.
Kash announced that she has taken a break from social media and will focus on her mental health. Fans were upset over the split but admired how the duo confirmed their breakup without any drama and fuss. Amid the new change in the rapper's personal life, here's everything you need to know about her love life.
Before dating Za'Darius Smith, Kash Doll was in a long-term relationship with rapper, Tracy T. The pair went public in March 2021 and welcomed their first child, a son named Kashton, in January 2022. After two years, they had their daughter, Klarity. While they seemed happy from the outside, Kash later revealed that the relationship had turned toxic. In July 2024, she announced on Instagram that she was single and added that she won't have to "deal with just anything to keep her family together."
Earlier this year, Kash confirmed she and Tracy T had ended things for good. In an interview with Keke Palmer, she hinted at infidelity and shared that Klarity's birth gave her the strength to walk away. Tracy T publicly said he was "OK" with the split, but fans speculated about tension when Kash's new relationship came to light.
Kash Doll met Za'Darius Smith in early 2025, and they instantly developed a connection. She first appeared in a video with him while in Ghana, wearing traditional Kente cloth, which sparked relationship rumours. The NFL player revealed he was there for charity work, but Kash later admitted that his real-life approach was that rather than sliding into her DMs, he caught her attention. In a couple of months, the two made their bond Instagram official and used to share flirty comments and posts, where Kash even wore a gold "Za'Darius" necklace.
However, the relationship did have its problems. During the initial months of 2025, a photo of Za'Darius with another woman sparked cheating rumours. He quickly shut them down, explaining the picture was old and he was committed to Kash. He even referred to her by her full name, Arkeisha Knight, in a public declaration of love. Kash responded by posting more pictures together, showing a united front.
Another report by TMZ revealed that Kash mentioned the NFL player preferred her to wear less makeup and become confident in her natural skin, which further led to fans speculating about his controlling behaviour. Although the couple maintained silence over the allegations and made efforts, differences eventually emerged. For now, Kash will be focusing on her kids, her career, and her mental well-being. Za'Darius, who has two daughters from a previous relationship, has not commented on anything on his split.
