Cornerback Sauce Gardner recently made a public appearance at the BET Awards red carpet with his girlfriend, Brooklyn Nikole. This marks a new chapter for Gardner, seemingly closing the book on his previous association with rapper Ice Spice. Their connection first sparked in April 2024 on "The Shop," with rumors intensifying over the following year until they went Instagram-official in April 2025.
By August 2025, rumors of a split emerged when Ice Spice was seen with another individual. While neither party officially confirmed the breakup, the relationship dynamics had clearly shifted. Gardner did not remain single for long. By November 2025, he was photographed with model Brooklyn Nikole, who is also the sister of rapper Latto and the founder of the beauty brand Beauty by Brooklyn.
Gardner and Nikole quickly progressed on social media, with Gardner confirming their relationship in December 2025 via an Instagram selfie. The pair's relationship appears fully established, especially following their joint appearance at the BET Awards, signaling Gardner's expanded social circle beyond football.
