Snoop Dogg will soon welcome another grandchild to his family, this time thanks to his daughter Cori Broadus.
Broadus, the 25-year-old daughter of a hip-hop icon and side hustler extraordinaire, confirmed this week that she is pregnant with a baby girl with fiancé Wayne Duce. she told E! News that the baby may be “unplanned” but is “blessed” regardless.
A makeup executive at Chocolate Factory told the magazine that she was four months pregnant and doctors were concerned that she had a “high-risk pregnancy.” In recent years, Broadus has been open about his health, including being diagnosed with the autoimmune disease lupus at the age of six. she told E! She feels that God is protecting her and that she and her baby are thriving.
Although her father had hoped for grandchildren, Mr. Broadus said he and his fiancée were looking forward to doting on their soon-to-be-born daughter. “I have a little self,” she said.
Broadus revealed her pregnancy almost a year after she said she suffered a “severe stroke.”
In a January announcement, she lamented her health scare, saying, “I’m only 24 years old, what have I done in my past to deserve this?” Less than two weeks later, she said she was on the mend and was hospitalized with a stroke.
Broadus is the youngest of Snoop Dogg and his wife Chante Broadus’ three children. Earlier this month, the father-daughter duo spoke about their close relationship on “The Jennifer Hudson Show.”
“He’s always by my side, teaching me everything I need to know in life,” Broadus said. “But I think a lot of people have expectations because I’m his daughter. But I just always try to be myself.”
Snoop Dogg said he had to “step into the path of maturity” to understand his daughter and allow her to experience life on her own. “Her life is not my life,” he said.
Additionally, Snoop Dogg said he knew Deuce was “the one” for his daughter. The two got engaged in November 2022.
“Their love is their love,” the rapper said on his talk show, getting emotional. “But you can also see how much he loves her.”
Even though Broadus and Deuce celebrated by announcing the gender over the weekend, the baby news was kept secret until Monday. Broadus shared several photos from the time of the release on his Instagram Story. She said she was very confident that she was pregnant with a boy and revealed that she is due to give birth to a girl in June. Deuce also celebrated with an Instagram post on Monday.
“You’re my dad,” he captioned a photo of himself carrying a sonogram, his fiancée’s pregnancy test and Broadus’ pregnant belly. “I can’t wait to meet you, young lady.”
