Iggy Azalea shares first photo of her newborn son Onyx – just hours after confirming she’s split from boyfriend Playboi Carti
Iggy Azalea has pictured her newborn son Onyx on Instagram for the first time.
The Australian rapper, 30, uploaded two photos of herself cuddling the adorable infant on Sunday – just hours after confirming she’a split from her child’s father, Playboi Carti.
In the caption, Iggy simply shared an angel emoji.
Just hours earlier, Iggy confirmed that she and her boyfriend Playboi Carti had called time on their relationship.
‘What I meant last night was that I’m raising my son alone and I’m not in a relationship,’ Iggy wrote in a post on Instagram Stories.
Iggy had hinted at the breakup in cryptic Instagram Story posts just hours earlier.
‘You lost a real 1!!!!’ she wrote, adding: ‘People take loyalty for granted & That’s why I’d rather be alone [vomiting emojis].’
Iggy and Carti, 24, (real name Jordan Terrell Carter) began dating in 2018 and had what many would describe as an on-and-off relationship.
