Rihanna‘s muse, Slick Woods, and her beautiful baby bump grace the cover of Elle UK‘s September 2018 issue. And of course, she looks beyond amazing.
Slick, who is expecting a baby boy with boyfriend and fellow model Adonis Bosso, also opened about how she learned she was pregnant and the reason why Erykah Badu is her doula.

The 21-year-old stunner said this about discovering she was going to be a mom: “I was really, really, really, really sick in London, but thought it was because of travel, so a doctor gave me pills for the flu. Went to Paris: more pills for the flu. And then I went to LA, and they tried a sonogram, and I saw my baby’s face and heard his heartbeat. Tears of joy.”
About Erykah, she confessed: “She’s a mommy role model. A mother I look up to, who f–kin’ kills her s–t and is a boss ass bitch.”
On motherhood, the model shared: “At 14, 15, I never expected me to ever be giving any type of life. I never expected to be this happy with having a child. Going from a person who fought, to being able to provide for my own family. From not having a family, to being able to create your own. Things you lacked, things you missed out on, trauma—you can completely erase those things by creating new life. All those things you didn’t get – all those hugs and kisses. I can retract those things with my son’s life. In giving him that childhood, it heals you as well. In hugging your son, every hug you give him, it’s giving a piece of that back to you, too. I need him as much as he needs me.”
While pregnant, Slick remains the face of Fenty both makeup and lingerie.
