Read on to find out more about the happy news:
Snoop Dogg's daughter, Cori Broadus, is pregnant!
Cori Broadus, who is currently planning her wedding to fiancé Wayne Polk, confirmed the news on December 23, telling E!, "I found out October 28. This baby is so unplanned, but we are soooooo blessed."
Cori is Snoop's only daughter and has been battling health issues, including lupus, for most of her life. However, at four months along in her pregnancy, she says she's doing well. "I'm high-risk pregnancy and doctors were very concerned for me and the baby," she told the outlet, adding, "but God has his hands on me, and me and the baby are doing perfectly fine. I’m having a girl."
Cori Broadus added that her parents, Snoop and his wife Shante Broadus, are thrilled about the news. "My mom and dad were so excited, their baby girl is having a baby," she said.
On Instagram, Polk shared his excitement, posting a picture of Cori and writing, "Girl dad 💗 can’t wait to meet you baby girl 🥹." The pair have been together since 2018 and got engaged in 2022.
“[The proposal] meant a lot to me, because it was like... The fact that you still even want to be with me for the rest of your life, knowing all the things that I go through. We was getting into it really, really bad, those few days before he proposed...I was over everything. And I was taking it out on him. So, I'm like, ‘Damn. You're getting down on one knee, and I'm putting you through all of this mentally’... I have moments where I don't love myself… It means everything to me, that somebody wants to be with me forever," she told Teen Vogue.
