Naughton is already the mother of Zuri, 5.

I wrapped my two pregnancy tests in pretty tissue paper and put it in a cute little gift bag and told him I had a belated birthday gift for him. It was such a special moment."
The couple are prepping for the baby’s arrival by “reading a lot.” She admitted, “There's so much more to learn this time around!”
She emphasized, “We look forward to bonding in a new way and actually applying our wedding vows on this journey to parenthood! This is Two's first baby, so he's extra excited to create another human. Even through the many challenges that can occur with pregnancy, we want to push ourselves to be the best partners and the best parents we can be!"
Years ago, Naturi and Two met through her “Power” co-star Omari Hardwick, who introduced them.
Two popped the question in 2020 after a year of dating.
Naturi didn’t reveal the identity of her fiancé until two months before their wedding!
She told Essence, “It was important to be cautious about sharing [his identity] so we could focus on that bonding time.”
“Sometimes in the industry people put their opinions on things and make you feel like you need their opinion, and I don't,” Naturi pointed out.
