Coincidentally, Rowland delivered her and husband Tim Weatherspoon’s second child the same day she posted a video of herself twerking, bouncing on a ball and working out celebrating the 9-month mark of her pregnancy.

Throughout pregnancy Rowland served up fashion looks from home and shimmied her way through choreography, leaving fans to fawn over her beauty and moves.

“you did dat Mama!! Yaaasssssssssss boo🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥”

“Keelllllyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!! If you don’t STOP!! Let the WHOLE WORLD KNOW AND WALK! Love it! 🔥😍🔥🔥”

“The sexiest nine months pregnant woman I’ve ever seen😍🔥,” fans wrote in response to Rowland hitting the “Walk” challenge on TikTok.

Taking a page out of her best friend Beyoncé’s book, Rowland managed to keep her baby’s gender under wraps until his arrival. Her son however nearly let the cat out of the bag in October during an interview with Access.

“When we told Titan it was a whole thing,” she said while explaining that the 6-year-old had his own elaborate plans for the reveal.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
