Gayle King is standing 10 toes down in defense of Cardi B\u2019s recent pregnancy announcement.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The TV host sat down<\/a> with the Bronx-born rapper, who revealed she\u2019s expecting her fourth child with her new partner, NFL star Stefon Diggs, during an interview that aired last week on \u201cCBS Mornings.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI\u2019m happy for her,\u201d King told TMZ. \u201cI walked away with a girl crush on Cardi B. I think if you underestimate her, you do it at your own peril.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The anchor went on to say that the \u201cBodak Yellow\u201d rapper \u201cknows exactly what she\u2019s doing.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cShe\u2019s very excited about the baby. She says so is Stefon. And she is ready for a new album, new music and she wants us all to play, and I am here for her,\u201d King said.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

When the reporter informed King that people were \u201chating\u201d on Cardi and claiming she had denied the pregnancy, she quickly came to Cardi\u2019s defense. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cShe didn\u2019t deny it. She just didn\u2019t respond to it,\u201d King said.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

She explained that Cardi wanted to share the news on her \u201cown time\u201d and keep things on her \u201cown timetable.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

King also pointed out that many pregnant women \u201cwait a certain amount of time\u201d before going public \u2014 and emphasized there\u2019s nothing wrong with that.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

During the exclusive interview last week, Cardi opened up about how she\u2019s feeling right now. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI feel very strong. I feel very powerful that I\u2019m doing all this work, but I\u2019m doing all this work while I\u2019m creating a baby,\u201d she said. \u201cMe and my man, we\u2019re very supportive of each other, we\u2019re like in the same space in our careers.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
