“Swipe for a Surprise. Wasn’t sure how to ‘announce’ lol,” Davis wrote in the caption. “But I thought I’d share the one time in the past few months I’ve looked like Smaddy Madda (somebody’s mother).”
“The excitement on our faces is real, but the struggle has been also ( I’m sure I’ll fill you in when I’m ready).
“Keep us all in your prayers, We’re so excited, and feeling so so so so blessed!”

In 2020, Jamelia said that the “ignorance and indifference of white people” has allowed racism to flourish in the UK.
Speaking to BBC News, the “Superstar” singer explained that “covert racism” affects every aspect of the country, and called on white people to do more to dismantle the systems currently in place.
“As a black person who lives in the UK, I can tell you that we have a serious issue that goes far beyond the overt,” Davis said.
