She welcomed her youngest son, Jru Scandrick, in 2016, with her ex-fiancee and former NFL player Orlando Scandrick.
For years, many rumors circulated surrounding the paternity of her oldest son, Kniko Howard.
There were also rumors that Draya had received around $40,000 in child support, which she denied.
According to The Jasmine Brand, Draya said in a now-deleted tweet, "At 17 years old I got pregnant by a man who became incarcerated for 10 when I was 7 months pregnant."
"With help from my mom, I was able to survive. Now, judging by how under-developed and young I was, besides living in a very small city in PA….. There’s no way in 2002 I got pregnant by some athlete," she continued.
"If I had, there’s not a chance in f***ing hell I would have wasted 7 years of my life working 'in the club' because clearly child support would be on fleek.
"I have never received A DIME of child support in my life and that’s ok."
"I have also NEVER attempted to say anyone other than who my son is named after (yes he’s a junior) was the father," Draya added.
She also revealed that Kniko's father was living in Pennsylvania and earning an honest living as a barber.

"Oh my gosh, everything is so great with him. He is an amazing baby; he is a great baby," she said at the time.
"He’s a big baby– he was born a little bit early, and he wasn’t small at all from it, so he’s big for his age.
"I love being a new mom all over again; it’s really fun. I have a lot of help from my big son."
