What did Pusha T say about fatherhood in his Instagram post? Rapper openly discusses leaving childcare tasks entirely to his wife

Pusha T isn't sugarcoating his parenting style. After Virginia Williams Thornton shared the news of their second baby, the rapper admitted that he leaves all the hands-on baby duties to his wife.

On Nov. 14, Virginia announced that she and the rapper are expecting another baby through an Instagram post where she shows off her baby bump under her long, black, asymmetrical sweater while their first child, Nigel Brixx, clings to her side. She wrote:

"2nd masterpiece on the way… God is good."

As congratulatory messages flooded in under Virginia's post, Pusha T, whose real name is Terrence Thornton, made his own announcement, and it's quite unconventional. The "Diet Coke" hitmaker shared a photo of his wife with Nigel Brixx seemingly inside a museum. In his caption, he penned a message directed to Virginia:

"Thank you for my second baby boy. I hope you carry on with tradition and never teach me how to change a diaper, prep a meal, suck out a snotty nose, or anything else a Supermom does. You make things very easy for me and I love and appreciate you for it all."

The Clipse member words caused a stir on X/Twitter, with online critics expressing their displeasure over his belief.

"pusha t you are hiding (from) a child, go and change that diaper, let em be your world," an internet user said.

"Pusha T be in the house foaming at the mouth about drake meanwhile his wife in the other room praying for some help with the kid," another wrote.

"Pusha T admitting he doesn’t do a single thing to help his wife with a newborn has just ruined my morning because wtf do you mean?!" one queried.

"Some women prefer it this way. I’ve met women so proud their husbands never had to raise a finger to do anything for the baby. Couldn’t be me," an X user reasoned.

Who is Virginia Williams Thornton? What to know about Pusha T's wife

Virginia Williams Thornton is known to be passionate about sports, especially tennis. She co-founded the Black Girls Tennis Club (BGTC) in 2019 alongside Aerica Shimizu Banks. The non-profit sports organization "aims to create a community and address inequities within the sport, particularly for Black women and girls."

Back in 2022, Virginia expressed her love for the sport through an Instagram post, where she wrote:

"I've been on the tennis court since I could hold a racket thanks to my parents who played often and kept me open minded at a very early age. Its an outlet for my mind and body."

She added:

"Growing up, I was always the only black girl on the tennis court. We could list the reasons why tennis is less accessible to Black people than any other group, but instead @kimberlyselden and I would like to change that. We present to you @blackgirlstennisclub."
