Last year, Shawntae Harris AKA Da Brat and Jesseca Depart got engaged, and we are overjoyed to see the good times keep rolling for the happy couple. With their wedding only weeks away (22 February), yesterday the couple shared a pregnancy announcement post to Instagram captioned, “We are EXTENDING the family🤰🏽”. The timing is truly divine!
Hip-hop icon Missy Elliot, writer Pauleanna Reid and retired WNBA star Ty Young are amongst the many who have sent overjoyed messages of congratulations. And of course, everyone here at Team DIVA is over the moon.
Whilst the couple haven’t shared a name for their bundle of joy yet, when hosting Dish Nation in 2020, Da Brat said: “My child will have all of my names, honey. Her name would be Legacy Shawntae Dupart. Shawntae is my first name and Dupart is my baby’s last name. Yes honey, carry on the legacy of your parents darling.”
Da Brat and Jesseca’s wedding is sure to be epic and we can’t wait to see their rainbow family continue to thrive.
