Speaking on where he finds support, the star continued: ‘…from my woman, from my partner. She knows when to hold it down.
‘I think we both have our niches, our things that we do that we’re good at. She could never be a great dad, because she’s a great mom… And I could never be a great mom, because I’m the greatest dad in the whole wide world.’

The singer pushed back when a reporter pointed out that the children do not have the same childhood that he had while growing up in Harlem, New York.
Rocky assertively said, “Yes they do,” in a Billboard video that was uploaded on TikTok.
At that point, there was a back-and-forth argument between Rocky and the reporter.

“Don’t tell that to my girl.” I’m not serious. It doesn’t matter to me. I’m sure she’s sick of it too.
On August 1, the couple—who announced their romance to the world in November 2020—celebrated Riot’s first birthday.
