Issa Rae is the stunning cover star for Women’s Health Magazine‘s latest issue!
The hit series producer shows off her slender body in the photos following the cover feature and talks with the magazine about dealing with unexpected weight gain and how she’s been keeping fit after not liking how she looked on her show Insecure.
