Toya Wright Captures Baby Reign’s Big Moment, Makes Fans Melt

“T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle” star Toya Wright had a proud mommy moment after her 11-month-old daughter Reign started walking.

Wright captured the adorable moment of her baby girl’s milestone on Tuesday, Jan. 22, just a few weeks before her first birthday.

“Look who’s walking. #justintimeforherbirthday #reignsturning1 #11monthsold,” Wright wrote on her post.

In the video, baby Reign appears to take a few steps from Wright’s bedroom into another room just before losing her balance. Wright, who couldn’t have been more of a parent at that moment, lets out a joyous laugh in the background and exclaims, “She’s walking!”

The adorable video of the 11-month-old’s milepost sent social media into overdrive.

One fan wrote, “Omg I have followed her journey since day one 💙❤️. Get it Reign!!!”

Another added, “Congratulations mom milestones are great Rainy is so precious! Yay!”

A third commented, “Omg my favorite baby is walking 😍😍😫 I love her @toyawright ❤.”

Wright, the ex-wife of rapper Lil Wayne, welcomed baby Reign into the world on Feb. 8, 2018, at 7 pounds, 7 ounces with her husband Robert “Red” Rushing.

Wright and Rushing reportedly got hitched in a private ceremony, the whereabouts and date of which have yet to be confirmed. However, the couple and their baby girl traveled to Mykonos, an island in Greece, around October 5, 2018. Wright held a live session on Instagram during her vacation in Greece when a friend of hers randomly shouted, “Toya gettin’ married.” The star deleted the video off her Instagram Live a few moments later.

Wright, Rushing, baby Reign and Wright’s eldest daughter Reginae Carter appeared on season 1 of “T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle.” Wright’s storyline centered on her being a new mother to her 11-month-old while still trying to guide her 20-year-old daughter. The show also shed light on Wright’s several business ventures, like her mommy-and-daughter bonnet collection called “Before Bed Headz” and her journey as a published author of books “Priceless Inspiration” and “How To Lose A Husband.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
