I’m not a trophy wife, and I don’t ever want to be classified as that. I almost feel worthless if I don’t have a new product coming out or something new to do. So no, the answer is no. Gucci’s wife? Laying home? Never. I would die. I want to see other women be as independent and make as much money as their husbands these days. It’s easy.”

- Keyshia Ka'oir (THE CUT interview, 2018)

Keyshia Ka'oir is expecting her second baby with rap superstar Gucci Mane, and the Jamaican-born entrepreneur and model gushed about the big news via Instagram.

Privacy and Peace

"Gucci and I both have children. We do. It's a situation where, I am proud to be a mother, but at the same time, I need it to be private. I don't want the kids in the limelight. I don't want them on social media. I need them to go to school and just be children."
