Rapper Da Brat and her wife, Jesseca “Judy” Harris-Dupart, will write about their relationship in a new book, People magazine reports.
Amistad will publish the couple’s The Way Love Goes: A Guide to Building a “Beaurtiful” and Everlasting Relationship next year. The press calls the book “laugh-out-loud funny and filled with warmth and love.”
Da Brat first rose to fame in 1994 with her album Funkdafied and went on to release the albums Anuthatantrum; Unrestricted; and Limelite, Luv & Niteclubz. She married Harris-Dupart, an entrepreneur, in 2022. The couple star in a reality television series, Brat Loves Judy.
“Part memoir and part relationship guide, The Way Love Goes is laugh-out-loud funny and filled with warmth and love—just like its authors,” Amistad says of the book. “Told in Da Brat’s signature Chicago tone, and Judy’s distinctive New Orleans patois, they each take turns detailing common relationship challenges, from sharing successful and meaningful communication to creating balance to coping with jealousy—and how they conquered them.”
“We’re beyond excited to finally share our story in this book,” the co-authors told People. “It’s raw, it’s real, it’s us—full of love, lessons, laughter and everything in between.…True love and longevity is about commitment, communication, understanding and sacrifice. We hope readers thoroughly enjoy our journey and how we sustain a happy and successful partnership.”
The Way Love Goes is scheduled for publication on February 3, 2026.
