The rapper and her wife, Jesseca Dupart, stepped out for the event in Atlanta a few nights ago.

Just a few days ago, Da Brat shocked her fanbase with news of her pregnancy at 48 years old. She and her wife Jesseca Dupart are obviously very excited about the new development, and it wasn't long after the initial announcement that the rapper's bump made its big debut. As DailyMail reports, it was the Creed III premiere in Atlanta on Thursday (February 23), that saw the expecting couple showing off their baby-to-be.

When sharing the big news with PEOPLE, the Chicago-born lyricist spoke candidly about her past miscarriage and IVF journey. "I never thought I was going to have kids. I just thought it wasn't in the cards for me," she previously explained. "I've had a great career, a full life. I felt like, because I didn't get pregnant earlier on, then it just wasn't going to happen for me."

When she met her future wife, however, is when Da Brat began to change her perspective. "I started looking at life so differently. I was like, I want a little me with you. Something special from the both of us that we can share and raise and love unconditionally,'" she told the outlet. During Thursday's premiere, the love between the LGBTQ couple was obvious.

They donned matching army green bomber jackets, layering different black shirts underneath. While Dupart's pants perfectly match her upper half, the "Ghetto Love" hitmaker switched things up with a pair of camouflage bottoms. While paparazzi snapped their photos on the Creed III red carpet, Da Brat kept one hand on her 18-week bump, reminding the world how proud she is of her mini miracle.

Creed III is Coming

During this month's Super Bowl, the latest trailer for the Michael B. Jordan-directed feature arrived. Fans are anxiously waiting for the official release in theatres early next month, as well as the Dreamville-executive produced soundtrack that's set to drop on the same day. So far, we've heard JID and Lute on "Ma Boy," as well as Bas, Black Sherif, and Kel-P on "Blood, Sweat & Tears" more recently.

Jordan was also in attendance at Thursday's premiere, and he didn't hesitate to stir the pot by calling out an interviewer on the red carpet. In a clip that's making rounds online, the actor calls the journalist out for allegedly calling him "corny" in high school, earning him a shocked and embarrassed reaction.
