Iggy Azalea and Playboi Carti are new parents.

Last month, it appears that the hip-hop power couple has welcomed a baby boy. TMZ confirmed the news while revealing that Iggy and Carti purchased a pricey new whip to carry their son in.

The rapper spent $400,000 on a 2020 Rolls-Royce Cullinan to transport his family and even had it rush delivered to their house in Georgia for an additional $10,000 shipping fee.

The new dad reportedly wanted a bigger car where he could easily and safely attach a baby car seat while not losing any cool points.

Iggy, 29, and Carti, 23, have been together for nearly two years. They met on tour in 2018 before moving into a rental home in the Atlanta suburb of Buckhead. The private couple has kept their relationship off social media and rarely appear in photos together. In July, they sparked engagement rumors when Iggy was seen wearing a $35,000 diamond ring.

Neither Iggy nor Carti has confirmed the baby news, but several outlets reported that the “Fancy” rapper gave birth to her first child in late April. Iggy has not posted any photos on her Instagram account since December.

BORIS Johnson has today pleaded with Brits to stay at home as temperatures are expected to soar to 26C – making it the hottest day of the year.

Cooped-up Brits already cracked yesterday – heading to parks and getting on their bikes to soak up the summer sun as St James’s Park in central London recorded 24.3C (75.7F) on Friday.

He revealed talks with McDonald’s, KFC and Costa, adding: “A drive-through is made for social distancing.”

“It’ll be time to pack the shorts away and get the fleeces out. Hopefully people will be able to enjoy the weather, sensibly, before it takes a cold turn.”

Sex health expert Sarah Mulindwa – the star of Channel 4’s The Sex Clinic – has put her career on hold to care for coronavirus patients.

TV star Sarah Mulindwa, 34, is back on the front line as a nurse.

The 34-year-old model, who was a qualified nurse aged just 21, revealed the heartbreaking reality of life on the frontline.

Sarah admitted: “It’s been a challenge to say the least. People are dying on their own with no family members around and we are having to break the bad news over the phone.”

Sarah is best known for her TV and radio work but qualified as a nurse almost 14 years ago, and then went on to specialise in sexual health.Being more used to dealing with genital warts and other STDs, she admitted returning to the hospital wards was “daunting”.

She is based on a mixed ward at London’s Chelsea and Westminster hospital where patients with the disease lie in sealed off bays. She added: “The most heartbreaking thing for me is when patients tell me they feel lonely or scared.”

Update – Race Sport

It looked set to join the other nine Formula 1 races already cancelled worldwide due to the pandemic — and its 300,000 ticket-holders have been offered refunds.

However, culture ministers are now working with F1 bosses on an ambitious proposal to run a televised race without any spectators, The Sun has learned.

Both sides are desperate to save the spectacle — set for Silverstone on Sunday, July 19 — if they can, as it is an iconic event in Britain’s sporting calendar.

F1 chiefs now think they can restart the season, with all races closed events, beginning in Austria on July 5.

Fans were given hope as a senior Government source said: “We’re having regular talks and everyone is being positive. If we can do this safely, we should try to get it on.”

Hate him or love him, 6ix9ine is back.

Just a month after his release from prison to home confinement, the embattled rapper returns with new music. On Friday, Tekashi dropped “GOOBA,” his first release since his 2018 debut Dummy Boy. On the aggressive track, he unleashes his wrath on the haters and clout chasers, while having the last laugh.

He also addresses snitching on members of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods in return for a reduced sentence: “Tell me how I ratted, came home to a big bag.”

6ix9ine was released from a Queens Detention Facility on April 2 to avoid contracting the coronavirus. He will remain under supervised release until July 31. Expect even more more music from him while in lockdown. He has set up a studio at home and is recording an English and Spanish album as part of his multi-million-dollar deal with 10K Projects.
