Khalid has not responded to those allegations, and representatives for Khalid did not immediately respond to HuffPost’s request for comment. Meanwhile, musician MNEK directly addressed Almonte on X, accusing him of engaging in “loser behaviour.”
Almonte told Vulture he “never” meant to “out someone who’s clearly been out already in the community in Los Angeles.” He said his “intentions” were to “share my story and share how [Khalid] tried to use his power to silence me because I simply ended our relationship, he was afraid of what I might say.”
Khalid, for his part, appears ready to move on. In a final tweet Friday evening, he signed off with a message of love suggesting he’s said all he has to say.
