Welp, Keri Hilson is single again.

According to Newsweek, former Seattle Seahawks player Ricardo Lockette went on his Instagram page to announce his break up with the R&B star. In the post, he wrote, “I want to inspire people. I want someone to look at me and say, ‘Because of you, I didn’t give up. To be continued..... wish you the best beautiful.”

Oddly enough, he hashtagged the post with IG gossip blogs like The Shade Room, Baller Alert and MTV. So he was clearly looking to get some notoriety out of this.

Hilson and Lockette’s break up didn't catch steam until Tuesday (Dec. 19), when Lockette retweeted her message, which reads, “A ‘mistake’ is usually the word people prefer to use when it really was a RISK they DECIDED to take. But word to the wise, make sure you can handle both outcomes.”

His response: “Lol wish you the best!!” and “Never any shade, always love and the upmost respect for her. Everyday was a blessing. #Queen."

Break-ups aside, once word got out that Hilson was single again, it prompted hoards of men to shoot their shot at the Atlanta-based singer-songwriter. We can almost guarantee that Hilson's mentions are littered with thirst right now.

"If you’re ever in NY and wanna go on an art date, my DM’s open @KeriHilson," tweeted one person. Another fan wrote, "I’m here for you @KeriHilson. I’ll help you take out your braids and support your dreams."
