How Long Have Larry and Mellisa Been Together?
The adorable couple first started dating in the early 2010s, and their relationship has been slightly on-and-off. Despite an entire decade of being together, the couple has had to endure many rocky phases.
On many occasions, Mellisa has called out Larry for being a liar and a reason that has held her back. Her claim seems parallel to the history of accusations that the football star has accumulated from his ex-girlfriends. Angela Nazario, one of Larry’s ex-girlfriends, accused him of battering her.
Apart from the pits of their inconveniences, they are parents to Apollo Fitzerald, who just turned eight as of now.
The couple has not tied the knot. The couple is not engaged as of now. Even though the pair has been together for a long time now, they seem to be in a bad phase in their relationship. Neither of them has posted pictures of each other for a long time now. They have not announced their split as well.
But, given their history of togetherness, one would imagine they will put aside their differences and get together soon.
