Alas, the secretive pair withheld juicy details like their wedding date, the sex of their baby, and even the child's name. Dropping these key details would have discredited their low-key status, so they satiated fans' curiosity with other touching information.

"We decided early on we wanted to protect our baby as much as we can for as long as possible," Trice explained, getting approval from her handsome new husband, who echoed similar sentiments.

Weighing in on the pros and cons of celebrity life, the "Sorry to Bother You" star noted it could be draining having numerous eyes on one's every move. Instead, the spouses kept their intimate life under wraps because they wished to be in charge of their narratives.

The 31-year-old chimed: "Being in the public eye can be something that’s amazing, but it can also be something that is very hard on you. There needs to be things that exist that are sacred and not for consumption for everybody."

As for the public celebration of their happiness, the San Bernardino native stated it was the lovebirds' way of motivating others in similar situations. In the TV personality's words: "We want to be the ones to tell our story. We’re bringing our family forward so we may inspire others."

The "Get Out" actor and the model's private marriage marked a first in the couple's history. The duo's baby commemorated Trice's status as a first-time mom, while the newborn was Stanfield's third.

The drama went down on social media when the model revealed the San Bernardino native had popped the big question during their romantic getaway to the Bahamas. Her Prince Charming got down on one knee while celebrating his lover's birthday.

Shortly after the sweet updates, the artist Tylor Hurd dropped a since-deleted Instagram reel featuring herself and Stanfield. The video montage captured the "Atlanta" star spending time with the entertainer and their baby daughter.

"Decided to leave being someone's secret family in 2022. Meet Apollo Stanfield," Hurd captioned the post. The shocking announcement did not sit well with the actor, who engaged in a heated banter with the mother of his second child.

Stanfield confirmed the baby was his while berating the artist for ignoring his wishes to keep their daughter out of the spotlight. "Thanks for respecting my not wanting to blast my child out to the internet. Very considerate of you," the Satellite Award nominee sarcastically penned.

In response, Hurd accused the "Knives Out" actor of denying her and their child's existence to be with Trice. Her allegation read, "Value your privacy is why you lied to people saying she wasn't your baby or that I was just a random?"

"You value your privacy, but your gf posts everything y'all do, lol, okay," the social media personality added. Stanfield concluded their since-deleted banter with a defense, writing: "I never once in my life said she wasn't my baby. I hope this does whatever it was supposed to do for you."
