NLE Choppa and his on and off girlfriend Marissa Da’Nae have announced the birth of their baby boy-Chozen Wone!
On Tuesday, the rapper took to Instagram to share the joyful news and reveal the carefully chosen name for their baby.
He wrote, “ChoZen Wone Da’Shun Potts. 8/16/23. The Best Gift God Has Given This Year, Excuse My Humor She Was In Pain So I Had To Be A Comedian LOL. ALL PRAISE TO THE MOST.”
Marissa also expressed her gratitude on Instagram, stating, “So Thankful For This Journey And So Grateful For God Blessing Me With You.”
NLE and Marissa’s journey to parenthood hasn’t been without its challenges. The pair faced heartbreak in March 2022 when they lost their unborn son, “Seven,” due to a miscarriage. More recently, Da’Nae called out the Memphis rapper for his behavior on social media and his absence during her pregnancy journey.
“I really been trying to hold it down and keep it together,” Marissa wrote in an Instagram Story post. “But I’m honestly just fed tf up. You constantly trying to holla at folks, take folks on dates and etc but you have failed to show up for your child! That YOU PAID FOR ME TO HAVE! You think because you may pay a doctor bill or send a few dollars for certain sh#t that changes the fact that you’re absent as f#ck. I’ve had 31 appointments since we’ve placed our child in my stomach and you haven’t shown up to one because you’re working and busy.”
