It's all I can afford, baby. I'm broke, heat ain't working, brain ain't working right, but I love you.

They gave birth to a son after their wedding in 2013. Caressa and Delonte named him Cash West. The couple was blessed with a second son in 2014, but they have never revealed his name to the public.
