Keke Palmer likes to keep her relationships a secret, however, she disclosed in her “Saturday Night Live” monologue in December 2022 that she is having a child with her boyfriend Darius Jackson.
“There’s some rumors going around. People have been in my comments saying ‘Keke’s having a baby, Keke Palmer pregnant,’ and I want to set the record straight — I am,” opening her blazer to show her pregnant belly at the time, the former Disney Channel star said.
“It is bad when people on the internet spread rumors about you y’all, but it’s even worse when they’re correct,” she continued.
A timeline of Palmer and Jackson’s secret relationship, which they made public in 2021, is available below.

Sweet posts on social media
Later that year, Jackson and the star of “True Jackson, VP” sent romantic Instagram tributes to one another.
For Palmer’s birthday in August, Jackson wrote, “Never would’ve expected summer 2021 to turn out the way it did but here we are. You’ve been a blessing from above & I thank you for showing me a lot of feelings I didn’t know I had in me.”
Palmer exclaimed in a post of her own the following month, “Without being too mushy because I HATEEEE THAT, it feels really nice to not be afraid to show this kind of care for someone that I don’t share the same blood with.
“I thought it could never happen, I can be quite guarded, but I appreciate you for being a safe space,” she continued in October 2021. “I will always cherish what you have given me.”
