\n\tChant\u00e9 joined Canada\u2019s news channel CP24 for an interview on Wednesday (Oct. 7) to put an end to the gossip once and for all. \u201cHe is not the dad,\u201d she confirmed. \u201cWe were talking about it yesterday, like, \u2018Why is this happening?\u2019 I don\u2019t know. But no, he\u2019s not the dad.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tHowever, the former 106 & Park<\/em> host revealed that the father of her baby is in the music industry. \u201cMy son\u2019s father, I love him dearly, he\u2019s in the music industry and he\u2019s also a public figure,\u201d she added. \u201cSo I\u2019m excited to see my son be this little musical, magical person.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tRumors circulated about Drake potentially being the dad of her baby earlier this week, as fans incorrectly connected him to Chant\u00e9\u2019s maternity shoot at Toronto\u2019s Casa Loma. A rep for Drizzy denied he was the father to TMZ on Tuesday (Oct. 6).<\/p>\n

\n\tDrake and Chant\u00e9 have plenty of history, as they were aspiring artists and entertainers coming up in Toronto at the turn of the century. They even dated in the early 2000s, and remained friends as their careers took on different paths.<\/p>\n

\n\tOVO fans also speculated that the \u201cKiki\u201d Drake was aluding to in his Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit \u201cIn My Feelings\u201d was Chant\u00e9. Genius debunked the theory, reporting that the \u201cKiki\u201d in question on the Scorpion<\/em> single was actually social media personality K\u2019yanna Barber.<\/p>\n

\n\tDrake ended up reuniting with Chant\u00e9 at a Toronto show in 2022, bringing his ex on stage and referring to her as his \u201cfirst girlfriend.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tDrizzy\u2019s only known child is Adonis Graham, who will be celebrating his 9th birthday on Sunday (Oct. 11). The little boy\u2019s mother is Sophie Brussaux.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn the music front, Drizzy delivered his HABIBTI (FOMO)<\/em> deluxe with four new songs on Oct. 2, which were initially previewed in his FOMO<\/em> short film in September. <\/p>\n
