G Herbo Promises Daughter A Gift After Mother’s Day Meltdown

Sunday (May 10) was Mother’s Day and G Herbo spent the day with his fiance Taina Williams, and their two kids, Essex and Emmy. While seated at a dining table, the rapper presented Taina with her gift, while he and their son recorded the interaction. Williams was smiling as she pulled out blue tissue paper out of a white gift bag, followed by a wrapped box. When she asked what the gift was, Essex jokingly said “Chanel,” which G Herbo quickly shut down. Ultimately, what she unveiled was a diamond necklace that was sparkling the second the light touched it!

After Mama Taina showed the necklace to Emmy, G Herbo panned the camera her way. The three-year-old, who turns four later this week, was sitting with her arms crossed and a pouty face. When asked, she said “no” to liking her mom’s gift.

“I don’t like it because I don’t got one,” Emmy told her dad, who was seemingly laughing behind the camera.

Immediately, G Herbo promised to get Emmy’s a matching necklace. Meanwhile, Taina Williams addressed the behavior, teasing Emmy as selfish and reminding her that it was Mother’s Day. G Herbo then went right back to offering to buy Emmy a similar neck piece, but in the background Taina warned him not to tell her that. When he explained that he planned to and didn’t want his baby feeling left out, Williams again said no. Herbo shared all the footage on Instagram Stories, captioning it, “Everything Gotta Come In 2s ATP,” and adding laughing and red heart emojis.

Emily B & G Herbo Defend Emmy’s Gift Reaction

In The Shade Room’s comment section, over 2,000 reactions to the video poured in. Amid them was one comment from Grandma Emily B. She seemed to find humor in the clip, warning the internet to take it easy on her granddaughter. Emily B also commented on her grandson being locked in on his mommy!

“ŸŸ Not too much on my Emmy.. Essex recording is so cute.. ‘open your plesents,’ Emily B wrote in The Shade Room’s comment section.
G Herbo also slid into TSR’ comment section to clock the critics. “Im buying my baby a necklace F what y’all tome bout She aint gone hate on nobody when she grow up cuz she gone have it.”
Meanwhile, Taina Williams has not yet addressed what happened in the video and Emily B seemingly hasn’t shared any additional thoughts. Earlier in the day, on Instagram Stories, Taina Williams shared a photo of Emmy holding a small Chanel bag. At the dinner, Emmy wore a different Chanel purse, similar to the black one she got as a Christmas present last year.

Issa Rich Kid Thing? Social Media Weighs In

Back to that comment section, though. The Roomies’ reactions ranged from compliments on the extravagant gift to paragraphs critiquing Emmy’s behavior.

@lakisha_cooks wrote, “That necklace is beautiful.”

@pretty__tamia added, “I’m glad Taina told him not to tell her that. That type of behavior has to be corrected because thats why so many women grow up being selfish and jealous. That is her mother and she should be happy when her father buys her nice things without having to have her something all the time.”

“Im glad Taina said something Ÿ˜‚,” @by.styl.lee commented.

“My daughter be acting like this too sometimes & I thought it was an only child thing smh and I have to correct it every-time. Its ok to be happy for other ppl and clap for others, your time will come. But we aint raising no haters in this house,” @itsjasmineheaux said.

@sittingpretty commented, “She has to understand its mommys day and that her day will come. she should be happy to see her mommy happy. they have to correct that.”

@nirvad said, “Good job Taina teach her to be happy others instead of wIll get you one Ÿ˜….”

“This is the moment when you teach your daughters. This is the age, this is the perfect situation. Teach her first when she grasp the lesson then reward her. But these are the moments that makes or breaks the young girls we are raising to be selfless, resilient and intentional,” @c_nofilter commented.

“Im happy they can afford to get her stuff but this is the time to teach lessons and principals and that everyone has their moment and its not always about you,” @la_sting added.

“Im loving Taina’s response thats a problem Ÿ,” @letseatcakenyc commented.

“essex with his hand on his cheek & a smile on his face while recording his mommy Ÿ’,” @thebigwadaaaa said.

“I love how shes correcting the behavior. Because no maam,” @__beautifulfe commented.

“She has to be happy for mommy having a day to herself maybe she could help dad pick out the gift next year and understand the importance. Such a cutie pie,” @keena_lovee said.
