LiAngelo Ball's ex, Rashida Nicole, welcomed their third child together, Lilo Legacy, but kept the basketball star far from the delivery room. In a candid Instagram post, she revealed the tough decision stemmed from months of emotional turmoil and absence during her pregnancy.
Oh honey, the tea is piping hot from Rashida Nicole's Instagram! On Tuesday, the model dropped a 'transparency post' announcing the arrival of Lilo Legacy, LiAngelo Ball's third child. But plot twist: she straight-up chose not to have the father in the room. 'I chose for my child's father not to be at my delivery,' Nicole wrote. 'That decision came after months of emotional pain, hurtful words, and complete absence during the most vulnerable season of my life.'
For the last five months, she's been flying solo—every appointment, every milestone, every challenge. 'I've done everything alone,' she spilled. And the shade? It's real. Nicole isn't holding back on Ball, calling him out for disrespect, lies, and pushing a one-sided narrative to dodge accountability. 'I won't protect someone who never protected me,' she declared. 'Someone who disrespected me, lied on me... to continue to inflict pain and build broken homes.' No way was she letting him pop in for a quick '5-minute delivery room photo-op for the internet.' Messy? Understatement of the year. 🔥
But wait, there's reconciliation in the mix. Nicole apologized to Nikki Mudarris, Ball's ex and mom to his other two kids, after their feud fizzled when she learned Ball allegedly lied about his relationship status with Mudarris. 'Thank you to her and her family for supporting me during this pregnancy—your grace means more than you know,' Nicole shared. The support turned enemies into allies, apparently.
She also confirmed their divorce is official, admitting it's not easy but she's embracing the new chapter. Single mom vibes incoming—iconic resilience or what? So, is LiAngelo regretting those absences, or is this just the start of more Ball family drama?
