Boy, Are Fans Excited as Keyshia Ka’oir and Gucci Mane Announce Unborn Child’s Gender with Ice Blue Baby Shower

Keyshia Kaoir’s fans were in a celebratory mood on Sunday after the expectant mother used posts of her glamorous baby shower to reveal that she and her rapper husband Gucci Mane will be having a baby boy.

In the Nov. 1 pic captioned “It’s a Boy💎 #LilGuwop” — GUWOP is an acronym for “God.Unity.Wisdom.Opportunity.Power,” coined by Gucci — the 35-year-old was seen at her blue-and-white-themed shower wearing a long-sleeved sheer white dress with blue fringe accents. Ka’oir added a string of diamonds to the elegant ensemble, including her eye jewelry, hairpiece, earrings, and her giant wedding ring.

Ka’oir also took to her Instagram Story to commemorate the special moment. In the added clips, she gave fans another look into the shower by showing them the meal that was served and the décor, from the blue-and-white “Baby Davis” banner and pillows to the white crystal-studded small rotunda. Fans congratulated the couple on their bundle of joy.

“Baby Wop 💙.”

“It’s boy season ! Congrats 💙.”

“Young Guop is about to born🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥.”

“Home run 🏃‍♂️ Congratulations.”

“Congrats on the So icy prince 💙.”

The television personality’s wish for a baby boy has become a reality more than a year after she tweeted in August 2019 that she and Gucci were trying to expand their family. “I think it’s time I get off birth control and have us the cutest lil baby boy,” the tweet read.

Although this is the couple’s first child together, both Ka’oir and Gucci have children from previous relationships. In a 2017 interview with “The Breakfast Club,” she revealed why she and her husband refuse to share their children’s identities with the world.

“Gucci and I both have children,” she says. “It’s a situation where I’m proud to be a mother, but I need it to be private. I don’t need the kids in the limelight. I don’t want them on social media. I need them to go to school and just be children.”

The pair have been together for a total of 10 years, and they celebrated their third wedding anniversary in May.

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.
