Brat has a baby!!!
Thursday (July 6), the two ladies welcomed their new son, Da Brat’s first child, in Atlanta. Weighing in at 7 lbs, 8 ounces and measuring 20 inches long, True Legend Harris-Dupart was born. The couple used IVF (In vitro fertilization) to conceive with an egg as her wife had health complications that disallowed her to carry the pregnancy. Their son’s birth also came after Harris-Dupart experienced a miscarriage.
