T.I. has something to say about most topics, but he was reduced to stunned silence on the debut episode of his wife Tiny’s Fox Soul show The Mix. Tip was dumbstruck when co-host Romeo Miller revealed the trap rap pioneer’s going to be a grandfather.
“I wanna congratulate you on being a grandfather!” Romeo shouted.
T.I. tried to respond but could only say, “Whoa … you say … come again?”
Tip’s stepdaughter Zonnique Pullins then stepped in and confirmed she’s pregnant, which shocked the Grand Hustle boss.
“It’s me, pops,” she told him. “That’s what’s going on in The Mix today … Because I love you guys so much, I will share with you that it is a girl.”

The father of Pullins’ child is her boyfriend Bandhunta Izzy, a Baltimore-bred rapper who signed with Republic Records in 2017.
Izzy has worked with artists such as G Herbo, Key Glock and YFN Lucci. His most recent project, 24 Hours, was released in July.

Pullins thanked her Instagram supporters for the positive response to her pregnancy announcement on Wednesday (August 5). She also noted it was a rare moment of sharing her private life with the public.
