Kali discussed her pregnancy in a story published in the De Los section of the Los Angeles Times on Thursday.
“Motherhood is definitely something I always wanted to experience,” she said. “I feel ready for it. I’ve done a lot of necessary healing on myself in the last year. I got sober. I decided to clear myself spiritually, mentally… and, well, that’s when I got pregnant.”
We always talked about wanting to have a kid, so we were really happy,” she explained. “[But] I didn’t want to share that journey with just anybody. There’s so many people out there, even within my own family, that don’t wish me well. I didn’t want anybody to know until I felt that my pregnancy was viable. Ask any pregnant woman [why] they’d want to keep it private. It’s such a vulnerable situation.”
Don and Kali have been romantically linked since 2020 and have collaborated on several musical projects, including the sizzling track “Drugs N Hella Melodies” in 2021, and “4 Me” off Don’s Love Sick album, which dropped last February.
