Keshia Chanté has announced she’s expecting her first child — a baby boy, and while the news is joyous, it’s also sparked a wave of speculation about the identity of the father. The Canadian singer shared the update in a recent interview with Hello! Canada, revealing she kept her pregnancy hidden for much of the way.

She described the early months as grueling: intense nausea so severe she couldn’t hold down a sip of water, leading to a 14-pound weight loss. For two months, she stayed locked in her room, overwhelmed by everyday sensations. Every sound, every scent. Now, she says she’s feeling better and can finally look forward to motherhood with excitement.

Her dream? To be the kind of mom who decorates the house, celebrates every holiday, and leaves notes in her son’s lunchbox. “I imagine myself being some sort of Disney mom,” she said. She admitted she’d always thought she’d have a girl, but now she’s thrilled to welcome a boy.

And yes, she already has plans. She wants to get him into the studio as soon as he can coo and hold a note. She hopes he inherits his father’s brilliance, creativity, and swag. “He’s constantly doing things that I’m inspired by,” she said.

She didn’t name the father, only confirmed he’s in the music industry. But she did say she’s currently unavailable. And she revealed it was his idea to become parents. She calls herself a free spirit, someone who goes with the flow.

But her partner had a different vision. That detail, combined with her long-standing friendship with Drake, set off the rumours. They’ve known each other for years, collaborated on music, shared mutual respect. When reports surfaced suggesting Drake was the father, his team moved fast.

The Agency Group, his representatives, issued a statement calling the claims “inaccurate” and “complete and total bullshit.” No ambiguity. No caveats. Just a firm denial. Drake is already a father, to Adonis, with Sophie Brussaux, who recently married over the summer.

He’s kept his personal life largely out of the spotlight, though recent tabloid chatter has linked him to Pinkchyu, the Instagram personality dubbed a ‘goth baddie’. Still, none of that changes what’s been confirmed: Keshia Chanté’s baby daddy is not Drake. His reps made that clear. The rest remains hers to share.

When she’s ready.
