Coi Leray and Trippie Redd are ringing in the new year with joyous news—the couple is expecting their first child together. Taking to Instagram, Leray shared the exciting announcement with her fans, proudly displaying her baby bump in a series of stunning photos, some of which featured Trippie Redd by her side.
“I’m a rock star mommy. We ready for 2025,” Leray captioned the post, signaling the couple’s excitement for their next chapter.
A Love Story Rekindled
Leray and Redd’s relationship has been one of ups and downs, starting in 2019 when they first began dating. Following their breakup that same year, Trippie Redd paid tribute to Leray with the song “Leray” on his 2019 mixtape A Love Letter to You 4. The track captured the emotional aftermath of their split, to which Leray later responded by name-dropping Redd in her 2023 single “Isabel Marant.”
In a candid interview on No Jumper, Leray revealed her initial reaction to Redd’s song. “At first, no, I didn’t like it. It was very like, what the fuck, because I always thought we really had something outside of the music,” she said. Leray admitted feeling used for “clickbait” and expressed her frustration at the time. “If you got something to say, let’s get together and you say that shit to my face,” she added.
Fast forward to August 2024, the pair seemingly reignited their romance. Leray shared a video call screenshot between her and Redd on X (formerly Twitter), captioning it, “Sleeping on FaceTime, waking up on FaceTime.” Fans speculated about their rekindled relationship, and the pregnancy news confirms the couple’s commitment to each other.
Trippie Redd’s Past Paternity Drama
For Trippie Redd, this baby marks a new beginning after a turbulent experience in late 2023. Redd initially believed he had welcomed a son and even released an EP named after the baby. He went so far as to cancel a tour to spend time with the newborn. However, two paternity tests revealed that the child was not his, as reported by TMZ. This revelation made the news of his impending fatherhood with Leray all the more meaningful.
Fans and Friends Celebrate
Social media has been abuzz with congratulatory messages for the couple. Fans and celebrities alike have flocked to Leray’s Instagram to celebrate the announcement, with many applauding the duo for their resilience and growth over the years. The announcement also comes during a high point in Leray’s career, following her recent starring role in Adidas’ “Start With Sneakers” campaign.
A Shared Future
The baby will be the first child for both Leray and Redd, marking a significant milestone in their relationship. As they prepare to welcome their little one, the couple seems more united than ever, embracing their roles as parents and partners.
What’s Next? With their baby due in 2025, fans can expect to see more updates from the couple as they navigate this new chapter. From parenting milestones to potential collaborations in music, Leray and Redd are set to embark on an exciting journey together.
