Erykah Badu is a single lady again, Media Take Out has learned. The gorgeous soul singer, 51, had been dating a 27 year old singer and rapper named Jaron The Secret.

As Media Take Out reported, Erykah was head over heels in love with Jaron, and purchased a home for the two to live together. Erykah also paid all the bills, and provided financial support for Jaron, while he worked on his music career.

So essentially, Erykah was “sponsoring” the young man, and was operating as his “sugar mama.” And like most “sponsor” relationship … it’s come to an end.

Media Take Out spoke with a person close to Erykah who told us that the couple is officially over. The friend explained, “They decided to split.”

But we’re also told that Erykah isn’t kicking her man out on the street. The friend told us that Erykah plans on continuing to pay his bills for the next few months, until Jaron can get on his feet.

How generous of her …
