Lil Durk and India Royale: How their relationship began
In March 2026, Royale addressed fresh breakup speculation while Durk was awaiting trial. Because he faces a separate federal case involving racketeering and weapons-related charges, durk remains in custody. Durk’s blended family and his seven reported biological children, including Willow, whom he shares with Royale.
Royale referred to Durk as her “husband” and pushed back against claims about their relationship, according to HOT 97 . Royale also has an older daughter from a previous relationship, and Durk has spoken publicly about considering her part of his family. The acquittal came after prosecutors accused Durk of helping arrange the shooting of Rondo. The jury found him not guilty of the charges in that case after three days of deliberations.
