As the country music world welcomes a Post Malone takeover, some fans have questions about his personal life, and the Internet wants answers. Allegedly, Post is “hiding” his daughter.
Why is he doing that? What else has he said about his wife and family? Here’s the real truth.
In September 2023, The Fred Show revealed why Post “keeps his daughter out of the spotlight.” Their source was an interview Post did with CR Fashion Book, and Post set the record straight.
It might sound like a play on words, but Post explained that he doesn’t “want to post any pictures of his baby,” born in May 2022. He wants his daughter “to be able to make that decision whenever she wants to and is ready.”

He also confessed last year why he lost a shocking amount of weight. Post revealed that fans had expressed concerns that he might be doing substances, but he said the opposite is true.
He revealed that he’s “having a lot of fun performing” and “never felt healthier.” Post said his “dad life kicked in.” He gave up soda and started “eating better” to be there “for a long time for [his] little angel.”
Post Proposed to His Fiance Twice
Post has also kept his fiance’s identity a secret, but as we all know, it’s hard to keep personal stuff under wraps on social media.
In January 2024, Your Tango spilled some tea on Post’s “private relationship” with the mother of his child, whose first name is “Jamie.” As Your Tango reported, Post’s “fans have uncovered who she is.” But, you might not know that Post made stunning confessions about Jamie on the Call Her Daddy podcast with host Alex Cooper.
Alex always gets her guests to spill the tea, and Post was no different. He told his side of the story about his fears and insecurities in his personal life. Post’s episode with Alex aired in August 2023.
Shockingly, Post admitted that he can get jealous in his relationship. Alex joked, “You’re jealous with your woman… but that shows you care.” You need to hear how Post responded to that.
He explained to Alex, “I never, you know, necessarily want to be mean,” but his jealousy “stems from a place of my own insecurities.” He confessed, “I just want to feel loved.” Later in the interview, Post dropped a bombshell with his shocking proposal story.
He revealed that he proposed to Jamie in “Vegas” in 2021, but they didn’t make it official by getting married in Sin City. Then, Post revealed the downside to his engagement story.
He told Alex that he “lost a significant amount of money” gambling at a table in the casino at their hotel. Post confessed that he and Jamie went “upstairs,” and shockingly, he described himself as being “off my rocker hammered.”
Unbelievably, Post said to Jamie at that moment, “Hey, you want to marry me?” He even told his girlfriend, “I got a ring and all this stuff.”
Shockingly, Post revealed that Jamie told him, “No,” because he’d been drinking. She suggested he ask her again the next day, and Post agreed, saying, “All right.”
He told Alex he asked Jamie again when he was “sober,” and “it was nice.” Then, Alex asked Post an even more personal question.
Post and Jamie Live a Private Life
She confirmed with Post, “I know you keep your relationship private.” But that wasn’t stopping Alex. She wanted Post to tell the viewers something that made him know he was “in love with this person.”
Post revealed to Alex that Jamie’s “heart is so massive.” He also confessed, “I’ve always wanted kids,” and he could tell that Jamie “was gonna be a really good mama.”
TMZ was the first to break Post’s baby news in an exclusive report on May 3, 2022.
They referred to Jamie as “Post’s girlfriend.” A source with inside knowledge told TMZ that “she’s not someone who has spent any time in the spotlight.”
TMZ claimed that Post and Jamie had “been happy privately building their relationship.” They also revealed Post’s statement about becoming a father.
Post said he was “excited” about the “next chapter” in his life. He admitted he was happier than he’d ever been and confessed he’d been “sad” for a long time before that.
It almost sounded like Post was making a promise. His statement to TMZ revealed that it was “time” to take care of his “body” and his “family and friends.” Post said he wanted to “spread as much love” as he could “every day.”
Post Malone Revealed His Daughter’s Initials
TMZ’s report does line up with a thread on the Post Malone subreddit in May 2023. The OP posted a video of “Posty” in concert at BottleRock in Napa Valley, California, where he revealed to the audience that his daughter was celebrating her first birthday on May 26th last year.
CR Fashion Book reported that Post lit up when he talked about his young daughter. He revealed that “she loves to blow kisses,” and although he’s keeping his daughter’s name “private,” Post “very publicly did tattoo her initials, DDP, on his forehead.”
The Post Malone subreddit tried to uncover his baby’s name a couple of years ago, based on the initials DDP. One of the first commenters questioned if the little girl’s name was “Diamond Dallas Page.” However, since Post goes by his real last name, another user guessed that his daughter is named “Dallas Diane Post.”
They explained that Diane is the name of Post’s grandmother, and while they wrote that they “respect” Post’s privacy, they thought that no one would “ever get to see her or hear anything about her.” But the truth is, Post has dropped a few bombshells about his child in his music.
CR Fashion Book reported that Post’s song, “Don’t Understand,” is like “an adult lullaby of sorts,” and his single “Overdrive” contains the lyric, ”I’ll do anything to be cool to you.” Post revealed more during the interview. He admitted that he was “definitely” making “soft songs and lullaby songs for my baby.”
Post Has Focused His Music on Fatherhood
Whiskey Riff reported in July 2024 that Post wrote and recorded a country song, “Yours,” to celebrate a moment in his daughter’s life that hasn’t even happened yet. Whiskey Riff wrote that Post hosted an event “at Nashville’s Marathon Music Works” to showcase some of his new country songs with “guest performances” by Blake Shelton, HARDY, and Joe Nichols. Even with those country stars backing him up, Whiskey Riff reported that Post’s performance of “Yours” was “an instant stand out from the evening.”
Post dedicated his performance of “Yours” to his daughter. The tear-jerking song is about giving his daughter away on her wedding day.
As Whiskey Riff reported, Post “first teased the song right before Father’s Day, and fans instantly connected with it.” Post’s songs about fatherhood are being released at the “perfect” time since Luke Combs also recently released his “heartfelt project, Fathers & Sons.”
Post introduced “Yours” to the world during his concert at Marathon Music Works, and he confessed, “This next song is not released… yet.” Then, he explained that he “wrote this song about my daughter getting married,” although Post admitted that his daughter is “only two years old, and we’ve got a long time to go.”
Post even sounded a bit nervous about performing his emotional song about his daughter for the first time. He told the crowd, “We are going to play it fresh,” and he joked, “Hopefully, I don’t f**k it up.”
Post’s Performance of “Yours” Was Very Emotional
Post’s lyrics on “Yours” are incredibly moving. Shockingly, the words in the song hint at the insecurities he previously mentioned to Alex.
Post sings to his daughter’s future partner. He admits he doesn’t “know who you are,” but “one day I’m going to.”

Then he confesses, “It’s gonna break my heart when she gives hers to you.” Post sings, “It won’t be tomorrow,” but he still thinks “it’s gonna be too soon” when he walks “her down that aisle,” which is what “daddies have to do.”
It’s like Post is admitting that his daughter’s future partner won’t have it easy! He sings that “she might be wearing white” on her wedding day, but her “first dress… was pink.” Then he warns, “She might be your better half… but she’s my everything.”
