Iggy Azalea has claimed she is "very much the only parent" to her son. The 'Fancy' hitmaker has four-year-old Onyx with Playboi Carti but she insisted her former partner is not involved in their little boy's life at all. Speaking to Jesse Tyler Ferguson on his 'Dinner's On Me' podcast, she said: "I'm very much a single mother.
I'm very much the only parent, no disrespect, but yes, I am not co-parenting really, and that's just the reality of it. It's one, it's 24/7." The 34-year-old rapper also admitted that she's stepped back from her career in recent years in order to prioritise her son because she wants to be there to take him to school and give him "confidence", rather than travelling the world with her music.
She said: "I no longer want to be traveling around everywhere. I want to take my son to school. I want him to have memories with me and give him that time.
It's really important to me. "I owe my success in large part to my mother because she spent so much time with me and she just really gassed me up and made me think I was a superwoman genius, dancer extraordinaire, painter extraordinaire, chef, whatever it was. And it's important to me, even when my son's only four, that I know I'm there, instilling that confidence in him and just helping guide him.
"It's my job as a parent. I think if you're going to have a child, you should be prepared to do that and engage in that way. And I really want to.
I toured two years with my son on a bus and it was time for that to end..
