He had to fly out to Germany the night after his performance, but reportedly flew back to Stockholm to reunite with Yasmine, where they spent two days ‘holed up’ together in a suite at Stockholm’s Hotel Six.
Stormzy is currently touring and is due to perform across the US in May, with Yasmine said to be joining him.
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Stormzy for comment.
News of their supposed romance comes after Stormzy was seen declaring that he wants to reunite with ex-girlfriend Maya Jama.
The former couple had dated for four years, but split in August 2019 with Stormzy going on to release a track, titled Lessons, where he raps about their relationship.
On the track, Stormzy says the way he treated Maya was his ‘biggest of regrets’ and admitted he poured the greatest love he ever knew down the drain when they split.
In January, Stormzy admitted he has ‘never loved anyone how I’ve loved [Maya]’ in a new YouTube interview with Charlamagne tha God.
‘She’s a f***ing G, bro,’ the grime star said of his ex. ‘I love her wholeheartedly. I’ve never loved anyone how I’ve loved her.’
Asked whether they could reconcile, Stormzy said: ‘I would love for that to happen but I don’t know… I would love to be the man who she needs, I would love to do all the things that make this work. I want to marry her, I want to have her children.

‘I was pacing around my kitchen, I was pacing up and down for days thinking… f**** sake bruv… this one reckless night. You… all of those things brother; marriage, kids, the love of my life.
‘You have put all of those things at [risk], and now look you probably won’t ever… you’ve lost that. You know what I mean? You’ve lost that.’
Speaking on BBC Radio 1Xtra Breakfast Show about why he wanted to apologise publicly to Maya over their emotional break up, Stormzy said: ‘It was a public disrespect. It was a public disrespect that needed a public apology.
‘That girl gave me the world. I will wholeheartedly say that’s a phenomenal woman that loved man wholeheartedly and was man’s everything.
‘And I disrespected and was inconsiderate – a big disrespect. The least I can do is come out and say, come on.
‘I will say it 100 per cent loud and clear that’s a brilliant woman – we shared something very deep and she loved me wholeheartedly. And man went out and disrespected.’
Stormzy has denied cheating on Maya, but says he had been ‘disrespectful’ to his ex. He and Maya first began dating in 2015.
