How Is The Naomi Osaka & Cordae Family Doing?
Looking to be the best version of herself for her daughter, Naomi has been a huge advocate for mental health. This was especially the case when she decided to take a break from her tennis career, which was on its way to superstardom. She pulled out of all 2023 tennis tournaments and hasn’t played professionally since September 2022. Once she learned she was pregnant, she paused her career aspirations until the 2024 Australian Open. She’ll remain focused on being a rockstar mom for her new baby girl.
As for Cordae, the rapper has been busy with his own career aspirations. He recently released the single “Doomsday,” a collaboration with the late hip-hop artist Juice WRLD. The multi-hyphenate artist is close to obtaining an EGOT — an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony award — after winning an Emmy in the spring for the kids’ TV show We the People. He has three Grammy nominations and zero wins so far, but don’t hold it past him to achieve this lofty goal. For now, he and Osaka are going to have their sights on being terrific parents for their daughter. Congrats to the family!
