She said: 'I thought I'd have to get lots of plastic surgery, but then I didn't have to get any. I didn't get a stomach that I'd need to hide, and then with COVID, I was just like, "I'll just keep it a secret. I don't have to go outside".'

Iggy has Onyx with ex-boyfriend Playboi Carti and previously revealed that his birth was planned.

She explained: ‘He was a planned baby. I just wondered if I would want to have more than one child, so I thought that maybe I should figure that out before I’m as old as dust.’
