Reid and Lustre dated from 2016 until their breakup in January 2020. JaDine fans said they have moved on from the couple’s break up, but this song made them re-live the happy days of their idols.
Although the reactions of the fans are mostly sad, they expressed their happiness and said that they were impressed with how much thoughts Reid put into writing the songs.
Lustre signed with Reid’s record label Careless Music the same year they decided to split. Despite the breakup, the ex-couple remained good friends.
Both appear to have accepted their decision a long time ago since they are now romantically involved with other people. She is already dating her non-showbiz boyfriend, Christopher Bariou; while he is being linked with KPop star Nancy Mcdonie.
Reid revealed that he’s excited for this year since his music label is set to release a lot of music. He added that this is also his focus for now.
