Eve is setting the record straight about her glow-up and that “soft life” folks keep associating her with. In a candid sit-down with Angie Martinez on the ‘In Real Life Podcast,’ the Philly rapper softly clapped back at claims that her luxe lifestyle is all thanks to her husband Maximillion Cooper‘s bank account. Eve reveals it actually came from doing a lot of inner work and healing. Here’s what she had to say…

Eve Responds To “Soft Life” Comments
Angie pointed out the public’s perception:
“That you married the billionaire, and you have figured out a life, and you chose a different life… overseas.”
Eve wasn’t having it, though! “Everybody says that… He’s not a billionaire. I need to clear that up. He’s not a billionaire. Um, he ain’t broke, but I ain’t broke either,” she spilled.
Eve made it clear she’s been holding it down way before her husband entered the picture. She says she’s been putting in that inner work through spiritual healing, acupuncture, spinal energetics, Reiki, and breath work. “That’s my life. That’s who I am, for real. I do the work,” she said, letting us know her glow comes from more than just having a good man by her side.
