AceShowbiz - When Soulja Boy revealed to the world that he's going to be a first-time father, at least one person didn't celebrate the news. The rapper's alleged longtime secret girlfriend claimed she was blindsided by the news and was "heartbroken" after learning that he's expecting a baby with another woman, an L.A.-based hairstylist named Jackie.
Speaking to DailyMail.com, Aliyah Hayes said she has been in an/off relationship with Soulja, whose real name is DeAndre Cortez Way, for more than a decade and recently discussed marriage and children. She met Soulja when she was 19. "We met at a Christmas Eve party and it was love at first sight. I thought he was a king," she opened up, before gushing about him, "He was very sweet, very romantic and he just courted me. I could see he was going to be my boyfriend in the future."
Thus, she was taken aback when she learned of the news via social media on the same day he announced the baby's gender to the public. "I found out with the rest of the world and I thought we were best friends. We were lovers, we've known each other for a decade," Aliyah told the site. "When I saw it, I was devastated, I dropped my phone. My heart dropped into my stomach, I fell over and started crying because I was heartbroken. I thought our future had nothing to do with another woman being pregnant. I found out their gender reveal was very last minute and it just broke my heart."
Aliyah said she met Jackie "once or twice" in the past and that Jackie was aware that Aliyah was Soulja's girlfriend. "I knew he was friends with her friends, I knew she did hair," she said. "When I came across her, she was very nice to me - she knew I was his girlfriend, we would kiss and be close with each other in front of her. I saw her once more at New Year's Eve and I believe she was doing hair. I was his date - it's New Year's Eve and that's a couple's day."
While their relationship had faced several bumps in the past, they reunited last year and that "the most serious relationship we've had thus far," so she said. "He is my boyfriend, we talked back in August and we made it official," she claimed. I made that commitment to him that he is the only man I want to be with and vice versa. We've been together ever since. I was at his house, I was also in his YouTube show. He just made it clear that I was the queen and he was the king and that's how we dealt with each other."
Aliyah went on admitting, "I was angry [when I saw the video] because I thought that was something we were going to move forward to which is marriage and children, so for him to have done that… I was hurt and heartbroken, just devastated. It was unbelievable. I felt like I was in a nightmare."
Still, that doesn't change the love she's got for him. "I love him unconditionally and I believe he loves me unconditionally as well. I don't believe he wants to change anything about our relationship because loving unconditionally allows people to do what they want to do and still love them," she said.
She added, "I'm still healing, I'm still heartbroken so I'm not sure yet but I do love him unconditionally. I will love him for the rest of my life and I truly love him unconditionally as God taught me to."
As to how she feels towards Jackie, Aliyah said, "When it comes to the hairdresser, I want to give blessings for the pregnancy and her baby but moving forward, it doesn't erase the decade we've had together."
She also claimed that ever since the reveal, Big Draco has bombarded her with texts and begged her to continue their relationship but has refused to apologize for what he did.
Soulja revealed he's expecting a baby boy with Jackie via Instagram in March. He let out the news by sharing a gender reveal video that saw him popping a balloon shooting blue confetti into the sky. He then happily ran to his baby mama, before he hugged and kissed her in excitement. The 31-year-old simply captioned it, "It's a boy !!"
