T.I.’s Daughter Cries As She Talks About the Moment She Learned About the Personal Comments Her Dad Made About Her Gynecology Appointments

In November 2019, rapper T.I. was a guest on Nazanin Mandi and Nadia Moham‘s podcast, Ladies Like Us. Although his episode has since been deleted by the hosts, his comments he made about his now 19-year-old daughter are still being talked about seven months later.

If you aren’t already aware of what T.I. had to say about his daughter Deyjah Harris and her reproductive system, you can read his statement below.

“Not only have we had the conversation — we have yearly trips to the gynecologist to check her hymen. Yes, I go with her. […] So we’ll go and sit down and the doctor comes and talk, and the doctor’s maintaining a high level of professionalism. He’s like, ‘You know, sir, I have to, in order to share information’ — I’m like, ‘Deyjah, they want you to sign this so we can share information. Is there anything you would not want me to know? See, Doc? Ain’t no problem.’ I will say, as of her 18th birthday, her hymen is still intact.”

People were outraged that T.I. felt his actions were normal. “No exaggeration, T.I. invading the space and humanity of his daughter like this is one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever heard,” one commenter wrote.

I love you girls more than my vocabulary will allow me to express. You have grown so much right before my very eyes & blossomed into strong,brilliantly opinionated, independent young women. I'm so proud of you both and I love you to no end,more than you'll ever know. Please forgive me for any and all imperfections that cause misunderstandings between us…. Charge my mind,not my heart. You see Life may throw us curveballs & deal us some pretty bad hands at times. But rest assured,you'll NEVER find yourself in a place too high or low for me to be there to catch you when you fall. I just Can't let another second go by without letting you know while we're still here in this life together…. You have ALL MY LOVE FOR ALL MY LIFE…&AFTER‼️ @princess_of_da_south @zonniquejailee

Following his comments, T.I. appeared on Red Table Talk with Jada Pinkett Smith to explain himself after he was hit with a substantial amount of hate. He noted that he made the comments in a joking matter. “From a place of truth, I began to embellish and exaggerate. I think a lot of people took it extremely literal.”

Then, in February, days after Kobe Bryant passed away, T.I. issued another apology to Deyjah and his other daughters. Now Deyjah is speaking out herself.

Deyjah Harris Addresses Dad T.I. OBGYN Comments

During the most recent episode of T.I. & Tiny: Friends and Family Hustle, Deyjah is seen in tears over her dad’s deeply personal remarks. The teenager was one vacation when the interview was released.

“Things are completely uncomfortable for me right now,” she said in a confessional. “We’re all together in this house, so I have to see my Dad and be around him. And we’re in a foreign country so it’s not like I can leave and get away.”

Deyjah learned about the podcast while scrolling through Twitter and noticing she was tagged in a post about “gynecologist.” “I didn’t even need to read the whole title ’cause I just knew. My heart sank — very shocked, hurt, angry, embarrassed.”

Then in a conversation with her cousin, Deyjah said she was trying not to “I mean, honestly, I’m embarrassed definitely for sure,” she told her cousins. “I’m trying to put it in the back of my mind so I’m not really thinking about it. I know it’s not healthy. But I’ve been doing that since I was a child.”

The show also revealed that T.I. didn’t address the elephant in the room right away either, saying, “If Deyjah hasn’t come to me, why would I disrupt my energy with that?”

“I need more time to figure out what I want to say, but things are completely awkward and uncomfortable between me and my Dad,” Deyjah said with tears in her eyes. “Prior to all of this happening, our relationship was pretty decent, but after all of this, it’s changed, honestly.”

It’s unclear what T.I. and Deyjah’s relationship looks like now.
