Rapper French Montana and his fiancée, Dubai royal Sheikha Mahra, have sparked pregnancy rumours after a friend appeared to accidentally mention “the baby” during a livestream at New York Fashion Week.
Neither French Montana nor Sheikha Mahra has in the recent past confirmed that they are expecting a child.
The apparent slip happened while French Montana was seated between popular streamer N3on and an unidentified female friend at a New York Fashion Week event.
The woman told the rapper, “I’m so happy for you.”
When French asked, “For real? Why?” she replied, “Because of the baby.”
French immediately raised a finger to his lips in a hushing gesture. The woman responded, “Nobody hears me,” prompting the rapper to point to the small lapel microphone clipped to his jacket.
She then covered her mouth after realising their conversation was being broadcast live.
The clip quickly went viral, with many viewers interpreting the exchange as an accidental reveal that the couple are expecting a child.
French did not verbally confirm the pregnancy. However, his attempt to stop the conversation rather than directly deny the comment has added to the speculation.
Fans online believe the woman may have revealed news that was not yet meant to be public, while others have urged caution until the couple makes an official announcement.
French Montana and Sheikha Mahra were first linked in late 2024 after the rapper reportedly came across a viral social media post about her high-profile divorce.
Reports later said he proposed to the Dubai royal in June 2025 during Paris Fashion Week. Despite their engagement, the couple have largely kept details of their relationship private.
As of press time, neither French Montana nor Sheikha Mahra had made a formal announcement about a pregnancy.
