Drake’s son Adonis has made his debut on Instagram, over two years after his birth. The rapper, aged 33, who has kept his son out of the public eye, shared a series of intimate photos featuring himself with the toddler and his mother, model Sophie Brussaux, along with his parents Dennis and Sandi Graham.
During the coronɑvirus lockdown, Drake expressed his longing for family and friends, posting a heartfelt image of himself cradling curly-haired Adonis. The father-son duo wore matching black outfits in the sweet snapshot, with Drake, whose real nɑme is Aubrey Drake Graham, gazing affectionately at his young son.
Another photo captured a happy moment with his ex, Sophie Brussaux, 30, as they posed together with Adonis. Adonis looked adorable in a black hoodie and grey joggers while being held by his father, and Sophie smiled proudly.
Additional photos showed the blond-haired toddler sitting in a toy car with a large teddy bear and enjoying a drink of water. In a thoughtful caption, Drake reflected on the current global situation and expressed his deep yearning for loved ones, emphasizing the importance of connecting with inner light and finding joy amidst challenges.
Drake publicly acknowledged Adonis for the first time with the release of his album “Scorpion” in June 2018, following his birth in October 2017. Addressing fatherhood, he revealed, “I wasn’t hiding my kid from the world, I was hiding the world from my kid.” He spoke candidly about his relationship with Sophie, admitting they had met only twice before she became pregnant.
Despite initial challenges, Drake expressed excitement about being a devoted father and emphasized his desire for positivity and understanding between himself and Sophie. He highlighted their shared responsibility and his commitment to ensuring a loving relationship between Adonis and his mother.
Currently, Sophie resides in New York City with Adonis, while Drake remɑins in Toronto where he recently tested negɑtive for CоVID-19 after potential exposure to the virᴜs through NBA player Kevin Durant.
