Bhad Bhabie first announced her pregnancy back in December 2023, sharing mirror selfies that showcased her growing baby bump. At the time, she revealed that she was expecting a baby girl whom she planned to name Kali Rose.
In the months leading up to her daughter’s arrival, Bhad Bhabie documented her pregnancy journey on Instagram, sharing everything from glamorous maternity photoshoots to glimpses of her elaborate, all-pink baby shower.
Despite facing some criticism from naysayers who questioned her readiness for motherhood at such a young age, Bhad Bhabie remained unfazed and confident in her decision to start a family.
“I even see people saying, ‘Oh, I don’t think she’s ready. I don’t think she’s ready,'” she told People magazine last month. “It’s like, ‘How can you, from your computer screen, determine if I’m ready to be a mother or not?’ I don’t even be on [social media], so how can you determine that? You know? It’s just kind of off.”
