Reality TV star Draya Michele recently shared her struggles as she enters the third trimester of her pregnancy with her boyfriend, a 22-year-old Houston Rockets player. Michele expressed feeling like she is 'struggling to breathe' and likened her physical state to being under a pile of heavy humans.
Her announcement of expecting a baby girl came nearly a week ago, coinciding with International Women's Day. Michele expressed her joy at the prospect of motherhood and the ability to bring life into the world.
While Michele did not name the father of her child in her announcement, Washington Wizards star Kyle Kuzma tagged both Michele and her boyfriend in a congratulatory comment. The age gap between Michele and her boyfriend has sparked some controversy, with critics questioning her decision to have a child with a man 17 years her junior.
Despite the public scrutiny, Michele posted a cryptic message on social media about being misunderstood and emphasized the importance of staying true to oneself. Her boyfriend, who signed a lucrative contract with the Rockets in 2021, has not publicly addressed the pregnancy.
Rumors of their relationship began circulating last year, and fans noticed that her boyfriend has a tattoo of Michele's name on his lower stomach. Michele, who is already a mother to two sons, is expecting her baby girl in May.
