Green and Young have a curious relationship, and one would expect nothing less from Swaggy P. In an interview with Essence, Green described the pair:
“We’ve been in and out of each other’s lives and we’ve dated other people, we have still always managed to keep in touch. It’s something that no one will be able to understand. We don’t even really understand. We’re just like, ‘You know what, we have these kids. You know, we are friends.’ We share each other’s deepest, darkest secrets. We talk a lot. We have that type of friendship.”
Regardless of the nature of their relationship, this is certainly a special day for both Young and Green.
