The duo went for a “routine appointment” and was soon informed after getting off a plane that they got pregnant naturally.
“Of course if a doctor is calling you after any doctor’s appointment you start flipping out. ā¦ I get off the plane, I call the doctor, and the doctor is like, ‘Stop taking your shots. You’re pregnant. You guys got pregnant on your own.’ We got pregnant a week after the wedding.”

“Being a mom is hands down the hardest role in the entire world. Now that we’re bringing another Jenkins into the picture. I have no idea what to expect,” she said, adding of Jeezy, who is father to two kids, “He’s an amazing dad, [and it] overwhelms me with even more love.”
