R&B sensation Khalid finds himself in the spotlight after allegations made by ex-boyfriend Hugo Almonte. Known for hits like ‘Location,’ Khalid has not only been outed as gay but faces accusations of abuse and cocaine use, all denied vehemently by him.
In a public video shared across his social media platforms, Khalid addressed the claims head-on. With a composed demeanor, he stated, ‘I’ve never done cocaine a day in my life’, emphasizing his stand against placing himself in such scenarios. He admitted to smoking weed and drinking occasionally, but firmly drew the line at cocaine use.
Khalid continued to dismantle the accusations, directly denying any involvement with escorts. He said, ‘I’ve never paid for sex a day in my life’, challenging the assertions made by Almonte. Khalid described the accusations as unexpected, noting that they stem from a relationship that ended four to five years ago.
The singer also tackled claims that he accused Almonte of housebreaking, clarifying that only his close circle knew about the incident. He expressed his frustration with being painted as a manipulative abuser, describing the allegations as triggering and deeply hurtful.
Almonte’s original social media posts, which have since been deleted, suggested Khalid set him up to fabricate the break-in story. These claims outwardly painted Khalid as untrustworthy, yet he continues to deflect them, asserting his innocence and a desire to move past the turmoil.
Khalid acknowledged he’s been publicly outed but insists he wasn’t hiding his sexuality. He responded to supporter’s messages with gratitude, while asserting that his private life shouldn’t be of public concern.
Through it all, Khalid seeks closure, wishing to put the allegations and ensuing drama behind him, focusing on personal well-being and growth.
Khalid hopes to put these allegations to rest and move on, focusing on his music and personal peace.
