The singer had begged her married boyfriend not to call off their relationship after his wife Paula Cook filed a complaint against her, labeling her a homewrecker.

“Fantasia has spoken to Antwaun since she left the hospital but nobody knows if they will get back together again,” the source said.

“Their relationship has been really off and on in recent times so we will just have to wait and see how things will pan out.

“Fantasia has plenty of people looking after her right now, and the most important thing is that she does not have too much pressure or stress.”
