But when she opened up about her postpartum journey on Monday (August 4), some fans began speculating about her relationship.
Her Original Post Raised Eyebrows
In her initial post, Rada shared a candid and emotional message:
I hide a lot with my smile. I’ll have to admit postpartum is tough… you have good days and bad days.
While I thought I had all the support in the world, I find myself walking alone depending on my little man.
It’s just you and I, little one. 🖤 Family 🖤

While many followers expressed love and support — including Claudia Jordan, who commented, “Hey friend — do you need anything I can help with? You know I love you!” — others read the post as a subtle jab at Michael Blackson.
Rada Darling Clarifies Her Words
Rada quickly returned to social media to clear up the confusion and defend her partner’s role as a father.
This message was sent to Mike.
I’m not sure why my previous postpartum post is construed as it being about Mike… First of all, as women we are supposed to stick together and support one another.
I was vulnerable and sharing a moment.
I was surprised that someone as strong as I am could experience it — hence the post.
I’ve never experienced it before and it felt different. I share to help others know that it’s ok.
She explained that when she wrote “it’s just you and I,” she was referring to her baby and her personal support system — not a lack of support from Michael.
We are different generations so they can never understand what postpartum is because in my culture we are not to show emotions.
I am ok. It’s just baby blues and I know it’s temporary.
It is rare that I feel it but when I do, it sucks.
Thank you for all the love and to all the fake profiles, I pray for your inner work. 🙏
For the record, @michaelblackson is a great father.
