Rada Darling recently opened up about the emotional rollercoaster of postpartum life, and her fiancé, comedian Michael Blackson, didn’t take it well.
The internet was in a frenzy this week after comedian Michael Blackson shared a now-deleted post seemingly aimed at his fiancée, Rada Darling, following her vulnerable confession about her postpartum journey. Rada had opened up about feeling “walking alone” in her postpartum experience, and Michael’s response was a blunt declaration that he’s “not Russell Wilson, modasucka!”
It all started when Rada Darling, who welcomed their son, Mikey, two months ago, took to Instagram to share her raw feelings. She posted a sweet picture of herself lovingly looking down at her baby boy, captioning it, “I hide a lot with my smile. I’ll have to admit, postpartum is tough……you have good days and bad days. While I thought I had all the support in the world, I find myself walking alone, depending on my little man. It’s just you and me, little one. ❤️ Family 🖤”
Her heartfelt post quickly went viral, resonating with many new mothers. But shortly after, her baby daddy, Michael Blackson, bulldozed his way into the conversation with a “post and delete” that left many scratching their heads.
He wrote, “If you think making a baby with me will turn me into Russell Wilson, you betta try again, modasucka. I love children, especially my own, and will do anything for them. Chill, and it’s not wise to talk about the hands that feed you.”
The internet immediately blew up, with many interpreting his words as a harsh clapback to Rada’s emotional honesty, especially with the direct reference to Russell Wilson, who is known for his publicly supportive and affectionate relationship with Ciara.
However, the couple has since come out to clear the air. Michael Blackson has issued an apology, stating it was all a misunderstanding. Rada Darling also chimed in to defend her partner and clarify her original post. “I’m not sure why my previous postpartum post is construed as being about Mike… First of all, as women, we are supposed to stick together and support one another,” she explained. “I was vulnerable and sharing a moment. I was surprised that someone as strong as I am could experience it, hence the post. I’ve never experienced it before, and it felt different. I share to help others know that it’s ok.”
Michael Blackson, who is already a father to three older children from previous relationships, welcomed “Lil Mikey” with Rada, a real estate agent and TV personality, in June. While the initial exchange caused a stir, it seems the couple has smoothed things over.
