Ayesha Curry Reacts to Drake’s Name-Drop in ‘Race My Mind’: ‘I Think I Was Dumbfounded’

Ayesha Curry didn’t mind her shout-out from the Certified Lover Boy!

On Monday, the Irish Wish actress appeared on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen and was asked her feelings of being name-dropped in Drake’s “Race My Mind.” 

In the song — written about a woman who isn’t putting her all in the relationship — Drake raps, “How I’m supposed to wife it?/You not Ayesha enough,” giving the basketball wife and her longtime love a callback.

“I think I was dumbfounded,” Ayesha said. “I think it’s just one of those things … that’s like our family, so I think I was appreciative that they like respect me so much that they feel that I’m a great wife. So I was appreciative.”

Ayesha, 34, has been married to her high school sweetheart, Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry, 35, since 2011.

Together, the couple shares three children — Riley, 11, Ryan, 8, and Cannon, 5. Earlier this month, Ayesha revealed that she and Steph are expecting their fourth child. 

The cookbook author made the reveal — alongside her baby bump — in the digital issue of her Sweet July magazine. Inside the spread, Ayesha said that she and her husband “thought they were done” but decided to try for a fourth child.

Shortly after announcing the news, Ayesha spoke with ET and dished on how different pregnancy is this time around. 

“Interestingly enough, I love being a little bit older and having this experience,” Ayesha told ET. “I feel like there’s so much more gratitude that I’m experiencing and just every little thing is so special. I’m just in a space mentally where I’m more appreciative, and so it’s just been [an] entirely different experience.”

Ayesha also shared how their kids reacted to the news of a new sibling. 

“Oh, everybody’s great, like everybody has a different dynamic, so that’s been really special,” Ayesha said. “But they can’t wait.”
