Shereé Whitfield is now a grandmother as her son, Kairo Whitfield and his girlfriend Alina Baber, welcomed their daughter, Mecca Joie Whitfield, last July.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta star recently sat down with PEOPLE and spoke about her excitement for being a first-time grandma.
“It’s been so special to have her in our family, and it gets more and more special every day as I watch her grow,” Whitfield says. “Just seeing the person she’s becoming. The way she reacts to me, the bond we’re building. It’s just so cool. I love playing with her, reading to her, taking to the park. And it’s funny because then I get say, ‘Here you go, I’m tired now’ and hand her back. That’s new for me!”
The most significant aspect of Mecca’s birth for Whitfield has been the profound connection it has formed within her entire family.
“I’ve always been close with my kids, but having Mecca has definitely brought another level of closeness and love into my family,” she says. “I wouldn’t have it any other way!”
Despite her joy, Whitfield makes it clear that she is not a grandma but a “glam-ma.”
“No, no, I’m not a grandma. Let’s make sure we get the word right. It’s Glam-ma!” the reality star added. “I’m a Glam-ma. And she’ll call me GG, which stands for Gorgeous Glam-ma. I’m starting a new trend for grandmas: hot grandmas!”
Nevertheless, RHOA fans will have the opportunity to catch a glimpse of Mecca in the upcoming season of the show.
