NBA YoungBoy's baby mama, Yaya Mayweather, has taken to her Instagram Stories to apologize for her online rant against NBA YoungBoy. Earlier, Yaya had accused YoungBoy of not paying for their son's birthday party expenses. Yaya apologized for making personal issues between the two public, saying,

"I reacted out of frustration and I own that. I also want to correct the things I said about him not helping out with our son because that was wrong. He does help. Anytime I ask him for anything no matter what it is...even if it's for me he makes it happen. We spoke and he said he would give me the money that was paid for our son's birthday back. I just got upset because it wasn't happening as quickly as I wanted and I let my emotions take over."

She concluded the statement by mentioning that the two are "both learning how to communicate" and "co-parent," and that she will be choosing "privacy, respect, and accountability" in future scenarios.

Yaya Mayweather shares a son, Kentrell Gaulden, with NBA YoungBoy. Yaya gave birth to the child in 2021.

Recently, Yaya Mayweather took to X to blast YB for not paying for their son's birthday party. In her tweet, Yaya said,

"You giving h**s money to go shopping and buying h**s jewelry, but still haven't given me money for my son's birthday party, you know who paid for my son's birthday party? MY DAD!!!!!"

Yaya mentioned that her dad, Floyd Mayweather, has stepped out multiple times and is "more like a father figure" than a grandfather. She also claimed that her father is teaching her son how to be a "REAL man."

Yaya also slammed the girls YB is allegedly spending money on and called one of them "A FAT WHITE WOMAN," while claiming that she's "sick to my stomach."

Earlier in August 2025, Yaya shut down rumors that she's pregnant with another of YB's children. She took to her Instagram Stories and wrote,

"Idk where y'all getting this from but I'm not pregnant."

NBA YoungBoy is married to Jazzlyn Mychelle. The two tied the knot in 2023 and share two children: a daughter, Alice Nora, born in 2021, and a son, Klemenza, born in 2023. The couple is expecting a third child together and threw a gender reveal party in October 2025 with family and friends.
