In the snaps, you can see Drake’s baby boy show off his curly blonde locks and bright blue eyes. The rapper shared more photos that feature himself posing with his son and also him posing with his son and Sophie. Drake also shared a photo of his parents, including his blonde mom, Sandi Graham, seemingly implying that Adonis received his blonde hair from her.
“What is most important for you right now is to connect to your own inner light,” Drake wrote. “This will create the biggest opening of all. Trust that you have all of the power within to make this happen, and in order to do that connect to the people and things that bring you a lot of joy.”
He added, “It doesn’t matter what has happened in the past or what is happening around us now, you can always make the choice to break free of the wheel of suffering and panic and open up to your own light.”
“Remember that you are never alone, and if you need to be reminded of that ask for support and it will show up,” Drake continued. “I love and miss my beautiful family and friends and I can’t wait for the joyful day when we are all able to reunite. Until then please keep your lights on.”
Adonis was born secretly in October 2017. Next spring, rapper Pusha T slammed Drake in his diss track “The Story of Adidon,” which revealed the mother of Drake’s child was named Sophie, and rapped, “Adonis is your son and he deserves more than an Adidas press run. That’s real. Love that baby, respect that girl.”
In 2018, Drake told LeBron James on his HBO show, The Shop, about his relationship with Sophie and his son.
“I am a single father learning to communicate with a woman who… you know, we’ve had our moments, right?” he said at the time. “And I do want to be able to explain to my son what happened. But I don’t have any desire for him to, like, not love his mother… I don’t ever want the world to be angry at his mother. We have found ourselves in a situation and we are both equally responsible, and now I’m just really excited to be a great father. I have a son, he’s a beautiful boy.”
In the past, Drake has admitted he struggled to get along with Sophie. However, last March, the rapper invited her to his Paris show, which she attended.
