The “Nope” star quickly responded, writing, “Idk why her ass [put her hand there] haha cause honey the way I was drinking last night the ‘baby’ wouldn’t be making it ?.”

Palmer channeled Kate Hudson’s character in “How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days” as she donned a silk yellow gown for her party on Sunday.

She elegantly pinned her hair back in a loose bun and accessorized her chic look with diamond drop earrings, a gold necklace and a bracelet.

The “Hustlers” star shared several photos with her family, including her 1-year-old son, Leodis, who sported a mint-colored tuxedo jacket, black dress pants and dress shoes, for the celebrations.

Palmer also posed with her ex, whom she shares Leodis with, as the two kissed their little one on the cheek.

“I AM GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR ANOTHER YEAR!” the “Alice” star captioned the snaps. “I’m not here for a long time but I am here for a community rich time and that’s what I have.”

Palmer thanked her fans for pushing her “far” in life, adding, “I am forever grateful.”

The mom of one has seemingly spent more time with Jackson since dropping a domestic violence restraining order against him in May.

Palmer previously accused her ex of physical abuse in November 2023, alleging he destroyed her personal belongings, hit her in front of their toddler and threatened to kill himself if she left him.

At the time, Palmer filed a restraining order and requested sole legal and physical custody of Leodis.

In December, Jackson responded to the claims, accusing Palmer of being the aggressor, per documents obtained by Page Six.

Jackson alleged Palmer “punched” him in the face at a party in August 2021 and choked him during an argument in February 2022.

The exes started dating in May 2021 after crossing paths at a Memorial Day party.

In February 2023, Palmer gave birth to their son.
