You may recall, the media mogul previously called out fans for spreading pregnancy rumors last year. In March of 2022, she took to Twitter to tell her supporters that she is not expecting her first child. Pregnancy speculation started circulating following a red-carpet event. She tweeted,

“I am not pregnant, f-cky—verymuch.

LET A B-TCH EAT DRINK AND BE MERRY.”

As previously reported, Rae is now married and living life with her husband Louis Diame. The two made it official in France in July 2021. She previously stated that she’s extremely happy in her marriage and wants to do as much as possible for herself for the time being.
