Iggy Azalea has claimed she takes sole care of her son
The ‘Fancy’ hitmaker has four-year-old Onyx with Playboi Carti but she insisted her former partner is not involved in their little boy’s life at all.
Speaking to Jesse Tyler Ferguson on his ‘Dinner’s On Me’ podcast, she said: “I’m very much a single mother. I’m very much the only parent, no disrespect, but yes, I am not co-parenting really, and that’s just the reality of it. It’s one, it’s 24/7.”

She took to X, which was then still known as Twitter, to post: “Take care of me? Lmaooooo let’s not get carried away now. I laughed. A lot.
“You’ve been mislead. I don’t f*** with a man I’m not even remotely on good terms with claiming he pays my bills. I pay my bills. Secondly saying nice things for an interview sounds great but in real life he talks to me like s*** so badly I had to stop all direct contact. (sic)”
The ‘Work’ hitmaker shared that Carti’s team had been wanting her “silence” about the interview but wanted to make it clear his words were “not reflective” of reality.
