While visiting the Tamron Hall Show, newlyweds Shawntae “Da Brat” Harris-Dupart and wife Jesseca Dupart-Harris, who chose to hyphenate their last names, opened up about their recent struggles of trying to conceive a child–following their marriage of almost four months now.

Jesseca, who has already mothered two boys and is also a grandmother, was very transparent with Tamron about her journey with In Vetro Fertilization (IVF) treatments. She emotionally revealed, “We haven’t spoken about it much on social [media] because we have had some ups and some downs on our journey … some complications, but we are still in the process.”
