According to Vanessa’s recent interview with Essence Magazine, she was definitely nervous about dropping the big news to her dad, and even though he would have preferred her to not have a baby out of wedlock, he’s definitely excited about being a grandfather.

“There’s this whole idea of first comes the marriage then the baby carriage so I was so nervous, but my dad was actually really excited because this is the first grandchild for my family. I think somewhere deep inside he was kinda like, ‘When am I going to experience that part of life?’ Of course he wants us to get married, but for now he was like, ‘We’re gonna figure this out. Just be happy and have a healthy pregnancy. I’m behind you a hundred percent.’”

Vanessa also revealed that wedding bells are in the future, but not before the baby comes.

“Of course we talk about [marriage] and it’s looking good, but I don’t want to be a pregnant bride. I wanna have a beautiful wedding, hopefully a destination wedding where I can show off my figure in a beautiful long flowing dress.”

The couple had also been brainstorming boy baby names so when they found out they were having a girl, it threw them off.

Now I’m stumped thinking of little girl names. But I’m excited because little girl clothes are amazing and I’m the girliest girl ever!”
