There are reports that she and the NBA star may have met before their relationship began. This report is because she was romantically linked to Dexter Strickland, who played basketball with Irving at St. Patrick High School.

However, the video never revealed when their son was delivered neither did they state his name. After delivery, Wilkerson and Irving thanked their loved ones and the medical personnel that saw them through the journey.

They also dedicated the video to indigenous women urging them to reclaim their bodies and heal their lineage through sacred natural birth.
