Both Lil Wayne and Toya Wright will go to bats with anyone who badgers their daughter. Toya was even caught on camera confronting one of the co-stars of the reality series, Growing Up Hip Hop: Atlanta, because he refused to respectfully converse with Reginae.
“I always say that me and my mom grew up together because I saw her like growing as well,” Reginae shares. “Like my mom has grown so much and that’s why I respect my mother as a woman. Because though I was young, I did see like dramatic changes. Not like she was like a bad mother or anything, but it’s like growth maturity and it’s amazing how great my mother is through the things that she’s been through.”
Reginae has been through a few things herself and hopes to use every experience to improve her life. “I really care for people and love hard and just basically where I wanna be in life, I think about that all the time,” she explains.
“How I wanna better myself as a person, I’m a great person but I feel like, you know, nothing wrong with changing yourself. I feel like as I grow up, I can kind of control how I react to things. Like I don’t react to things real good, especially if I feel tired, so I try you know I’m getting better with that.”
Reginae will soon be a big sister as her mother is expecting a baby girl to arrive next year. Stay tuned to see how the 18-year-old embraces the beauty of being an older sibling.
