"It’s been good. I’m excited. It’s been a very fun ride," he said, reflecting on how they have shared this journey together.
Egypt also shared her surprise at her mother’s excitement to become a grandmother. "I knew she’d be really happy, but she was ecstatic," Egypt recalled, noting that her mom has been incredibly supportive throughout the pregnancy.
As the couple prepares for their baby girl, they have already decided on a name that reflects their heritage. "We’re going to name her Phara’h Clea," Egypt revealed, highlighting their intention to maintain an Egyptian vibe and royal essence in their choice.

The couple believes that this pregnancy has strengthened their relationship. "It tests people, but we are a really good team. We always come together, and we make it work every single time," Egypt said, affirming their commitment to each other as they embark on this new journey as parents.
With the new season of Growing Up Hip Hop airing Thursdays at 9 p.m. on WE tv, fans can expect to see more from Egypt and Sam as they navigate this new chapter in their lives.
