On Sunday, February 16, Shields delighted her fans by sharing a charming selfie of herself and Papoose standing in stunning beachside waters on her Instagram Stories. Both individuals flashed their radiant smiles, capturing a moment of pure joy as Papoose stood proudly behind his new lady while she took the photo.

Claressa also flaunted her vacation braids, adding to her beach-ready look! However, the nature of their trip?whether a romantic getaway or a gathering with family and friends?remains a mystery.

In a series of additional posts on her Instagram Stories, Claressa filmed herself enjoying drinks and strolling through what appeared to be a luxurious hotel alongside another woman on that same Sunday. The fun and excitement of their beachside adventure clearly extended beyond just the selfie.

On Monday, February 17, Claressa and Papoose were spotted at the highly anticipated Hawai?i Fest 2025, which featured an impressive lineup of artists, including Ashanti, Sean Paul, Ja Rule, and YG Marley. As Papoose took the stage with CuhDeeJah, Claressa enthusiastically cheered him on from the audience, showcasing her unwavering support for her partner. While he shared some exciting footage from the festival, it seems he didn’t post any content featuring Claressa, leaving fans curious about their dynamic.
