Stormzy has declared he’s off the market and ready to marry after sharing the surprise news he’s dating a new mystery partner.

The grime superstar, 31, made the admission in his brand new track Sorry Rach! which he released on Wednesday.

In the song, the lyrics share that Stormzy is ready to start a family with his new partner, before noting she is eerily similar to his exes Maya Jama and Victoria Monet.

Stormzy raps: ‘I told the boys I think I met my wife. Baby if you have my baby then you’re set for life.’

He went onto added: ‘I think I’ve got a type, she’s like the two before.’

Stormzy and Maya split in July after rekindling their relationship the previous year, and the couple had dated for five years before splitting in 2019, and in October he was pictured kissing US singer Victoria.

In January Maya was asked whether she and Stormzy could ever rekindle their romance, but the presenter – who is secretly dating Man City player Ruben Dias –  insisted that this truly is the end for her and Stormzy.

She told The Guardian: ‘No, I think we’re happy in this friendship zone.’

Commenting on the attention their romance attracted, Maya explained: ‘I think it’s nice that people love him for being cute and love me for being cute, and when two people you like come together then people get excited by it. That’s just what happens in the celebrity world, don’t you think?’

She went on to add of the public and media fascination that ‘anybody’ she dates is going to ‘be a thing the moment’.

While it was thought the couple split after disagreements over when to settle down, with Stormzy more of a homeboy and Maya more career driven, last month she confirmed this wasn’t the case. 

After photos emerged of the rapper and his new girlfriend Victoria Monet, Maya took to Instagram to take the opportunity to say that the narrative ‘that I don’t want to settle down and have kids is a lieeeee.’ 

Indeed, the star – who was recently announced as a new judge on The Masked Singer – confirmed during her interview that she does want to retire and have children one day, but it has to be with the ‘right person’.   

She shared: ‘I also more want a family than just want children. Because of the way I was raised and it being all over the place, I’m very conscious that if I’m going to start a family I want it to be with the right person. I want it to be one that lasts for ever. But yeah, I do imagine myself with kids one day.’

Stormzy has run into some stumbling blocks after his A-list relationship ended – with a rebrand attempt that has been dubbed an ‘expensive error’ and an endorsement deal that has turned thousands of his own fans against him.

Once one of the most revered artists currently making music in the UK, Stormzy now finds his face plastered on sneering posters being plastered around London as he’s accused of ‘selling out’ – and has reportedly gained an embarrassing new nickname along the way.

Stormzy had a meteoric rise to fame in 2014, starting out as an independent artist and releasing his debut album through his #Merky Records, before signing to Warner and later being poached by Universal Records in 2020 for £10 million.

Gang Signs and Prayer, released in 2017 sold 310,000 copies, followed by his most popular album to date, Heavy is the Head, which sold 320,000 albums worldwide in 2019. His first EP, Dreamers Disease, earned him a MOBO Award for Best Grime Act.

Universal signed Stormzy so he could help the relaunch of its Def Jam label, which was once home to Public Enemy and the Beastie Boys – with his name considered a dead-cert success at a time when everything he touched turned to gold.

However, it was reported that the rapper’s switch to the gospel sound has fallen somewhat flat, leaving bosses at Universal reeling.

A source told MailOnline: ‘What Universal hadn’t expected was that in his first album for them, Stormzy would insist on dropping his trademark hard rapping style and instead attempt to sing his way through an album of Christian-influenced songs.

‘People are now calling him the Cliff Richard of hip hop.

‘His new album was expected to provide the perfect launch pad for Universal’s new Def Jam label, but its poor performance is now being blamed for the decision in recent weeks to make big job cuts at the label.’
