Post Malone appears to have a new woman in his life.
On Thursday, March 6, TMZ posted fan-captured footage of Malone sitting in a bar beside a woman, Christy Lee, as she smiled and held onto his arm — fueling speculation that the musician, 29, is no longer engaged to the mother of his young daughter.
“Post Malone randomly showing up in your small hometown bar & saying hi to you,” was written over the TikTok video.
The video, set to Malone’s 2024 song “I Need Some Help,” was filmed from a lower level of the establishment as the musician looked down at the person recording and waved.
A rep for Post Malone did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
The “Better Now” hitmaker, whose real name is Austin Richard Post, is known to keep his private life under wraps.
During an August 2023 episode of Call Her Daddy, Malone, who got engaged in June 2022, revealed he proposed to his fiancée (whom he’s never publicly identified) in Las Vegas.
“We’re not married — it was just a proposal,” he said during the interview. “I had lost a significant amount of money at the table. We go upstairs and I’m off my rocker hammered and I was like, ‘Hey, you wanna marry me?’ I got a ring and all this stuff. And she said ‘no.’ She’s like, ‘Ask me tomorrow’ and I was like, ‘Alright.’ And then I did, and I was sober, and it was nice.”
He added that he always “knew” she was the one.
“I could tell… her heart is so massive,” the “Rockstar” singer said. “I’ve always wanted kids and a big family. And I could tell she was going to be a really good mama. And she’s like, No. 1 mom in the f—ing universe.”
In May 2022, he revealed that he and his then-fiancée were expecting their first child together.
“I’m excited for this next chapter in my life, I’m the happiest I’ve ever been, and for since I could remember I was sad. Time to take care of my body and my family and friends, and spread as much love as we can every day,” he said in a statement to PEOPLE at the time.
Malone did not reveal his daughter’s name or her exact birth date, but he did confirm the news of her arrival in a conversation with Howard Stern in June 2022.

Speaking to GQ a few months later, he opened up on balancing touring and fatherhood.
“It’s really tough not being able to see her, but she’s coming out more often now,” Malone told the outlet. “I’m just happy to see her. But it is heartbreaking having to leave and not be able to be with her all the time.”
