Kanye West and Chaney Jones' romance has been nothing short of a whirlwind.

The Grammy-winning rapper and the model were first linked in February 2022 when they were spotted on a shopping trip at Bal Harbour in Miami, Florida. The outing came just weeks after news broke that West had split from actress Julia Fox, whom he started dating amid his public divorce drama with ex-wife Kim Kardashian.

Shortly after their first public appearance, the couple went Instagram official and seemingly confirmed their relationship on both of their respective accounts.

In June 2022, however, the pair reportedly called it quits after a trip to Japan. West was spotted at the movies with another woman days before news of their apparent split broke, though Jones did wish the rapper a happy birthday on Instagram on June 8.

From shopping trips in Miami to jetsetting to Tokyo before their rumored split, here's a complete timeline of Kanye West and Chaney Jones' relationship.
