Update: Following this news going viral, Da Brat's wife, Jesseca Dupart, confirmed that the video Raquel Harper shared of McCoy is old. Dupart accused Harper of attempting to stir up drama by sharing the clip today, when McCoy was grieving the loss of her mother.
Original Story:
It came as a surprise when Da Brat and her wife Jesseca Dupart announced they were expecting. What was even more of a shock to fans is that Brat is carrying their child, a feat that she once said would never happen. “I was like, nothing’s gonna come out of me!" the Rap icon told PEOPLE. However, with a little coaxing from Dupart, the couple will soon welcome their bundle of joy. It's a time for family and well wishes, but according to Brat's sister LisaRaye McCoy, she didn't find out about the good news until she saw it on social media.
McCoy reportedly visited It's Tricky with Raquel Harper, where she was asked about her feelings regarding becoming an auntie. "Wonderful," the actress replied. Harper tried to pull more out of McCoy and questioned if she knew the gender. "No," she answered. "Um, I found out [about the pregnancy] through social media."
LisaRaye & Da Brat's Previous Tense Moment
After an uncomfortable moment, McCoy said, "This takes me back." She added, "Because I'm sure that you have heard of the last kind of encounter that we had that went viral." McCoy refers to the tense moment on her show, Cocktails with Queens, when Da Brat appeared to surprise her for her birthday. McCoy wasn't happy because the sisters hadn't spoken in so long. "I ended up having to, I guess what they said, cussed everybody out on the show."
McCoy explained that time was awkward because she was being pelted with questions about Da Brat coming out as gay. "Because she came out, and I'm getting interviewed, and people are all like, 'Oh, how do you feel about your sister coming out?' And I'm like, 'Coming out of what?' 'Cause I'm thinking I had to say some politically correct type of answer because I don't know what they talkin' about."
LisaRaye Felt Distance From Her Sister
"There was a whole life going on on social media that I just really didn't know nothing about," McCoy further stated. Meanwhile, Brat hasn't answered her sister's most recent interview. It's clear that there are some things the ladies need to hash out, but they've always found a meeting ground. And with a little one on the way, Auntie LisaRaye is necessary for the Harris-Dupart family. Check out LisaRaye McCoy's interview clip above.
