Jan 8, 2016 Brazilian model Annalu Cardoso claims to have had a romance with rapper Tyga behind the back of his girlfriend Kylie Jenner, 18. The beauty, 23, confirmed the relationship to UsWeekly on Friday but did not offer any details. Sources told the publication, however, that Annalu and Tyga met on the set of one of his music videos in 2014 and they would get together when the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star was 'out of the country.' Tyga's rep didn't respond and Jenner's rep had no comment. Kylie and Tyga seem to have split briefly in November and it is not known what their current status is. A source added that they began texting in December 2014 and she later appeared on an episode of his MTV2 show, Kingin' with Tyga. It was also claimed that he made sure he was only with her when the E! star was out of the US, something the TV icon does often to film her E! show. 'Tyga is very careful and waits until Kylie is out of the country,' the source told Us.' 'He would text her and ask how she was doing, casual conversation. Then he started asking her to send pics and to meet up,' a second insider said. 'They hooked up a couple of times, but for the most part they would just hang out.' Friends came along too, it was alleged. 'She and Tyga wouldn’t be extremely affectionate in front of them, but she could tell his friends all knew that they were something,' said the source. 'If someone else was sitting next to Tyga, they’d move so she could sit next to him.' And the father of one, who used to live with model Blac Chyna, never talked about the reality teen. 'She never wanted to ask because he was acting like someone who didn’t have a girlfriend, so she thought those were just rumors,' the source explained. 'It didn’t feel like it was her place to ask him about Kylie and she didn’t really follow any stories about Tyga.' But then Tyga 'panicked when it appeared that their affair might go public,' said a source. UsWeekly maintained that the romance is now over. 'He used to find a way to see her, and that stopped. They never officially stopped seeing each other, but she’s stopped talking to him,' it was added.'
