Her mother, Holly Thomas, died in March 2019 following a battle with brain cancer. He late grandmother was a teacher.
“Good morning hotties !!! It’s graduation dayyyy,” Megan Thee Stallion wrote on Twitter with the hashtag “#MeganTheeGraduate.” She celebrated her achievement by sharing some photos, writing “We did it hotties.”

As for her post-graduation plans, she already has a new goal in mind.
“I really wanted to be an administrator over a hospital, but I knew I still wanted to be Megan Thee Stallion. I was like, ‘What can I do?'” she told People. “I was like, ‘You know what, I’m gonna open an assisted-living facility and use the money that I make from rapping to open it. Then I’m gonna let my classmates run it.”
