Frequent Asked Questions:
Does Drake have a daughter?
Officially, Drake has denied having a daughter. This came after rapper Kendrick Lamar sparked controversy with his song “Meet the Grahams,” where he seemingly alludes to a hidden daughter of Drake’s. While Drake responded on Instagram with a playful “Nah,” fans remain skeptical.
The confusion stems from the possibility that the daughter could be older than initially assumed, potentially around 12-14 years old based on Lamar’s lyrics. This aligns with a 2012 Instagram post by Drake saying “Baby girl,” which some interpret as an acknowledgement of a daughter. Additionally, Drake’s past behavior when Pusha T revealed his secret son (Adonis) fuels speculation, as he initially denied it before later confirming the truth.
Therefore, while Drake has publicly denied having a daughter, the situation remains shrouded in uncertainty, with some fans and media outlets questioning the validity of his denial.
