In the speech, Dr. Rigsby explains that his Trina and his father were very close. His father considered Trina his daughter instead of his daughter-in-law. His father helped him overcome his wife’s death. Dr. Rigsby’s father was a 3rd grade dropout but he gave him some of the best advice of his life: “You keep standing.”

Cam Newton has two children, a son named Chosen Sebastian Newton and a daughter named Sovereign-Dior Cambella Newton. Kia Proctor is the mother of both the NFL star’s kids. Many are insulting Cam for his feminist comments about routes. Amber Rose defended Newton, explaining that society has taught him to think this way.
Sovereign-Dior Cambella Newton
Sovereign-Dior Cambella Newton was born on February 3, 2017. People brought up the Carolina Panther’s quarterback’s daughter after he made feminist comments to a female reporter. Newton lost his endorsement deal with Dannon yogurt after making the comments. I’ve heard multiple men say that they didn’t know what a “route” was, making this situation more confusing.

Cam’s first child was his son, Chosen Sebastian Newton. He was born on December 30, 2015. Earlier this year, Cam wrote an emotional poem to his baby boy to celebrate his birthday. Newton challenged Chosen to strive for greatness. He explained that he has made mistakes and advised him to strive for greatness.
Amy Luciani is Young Thug’s alleged side chick. The rapper’s fiancée, Jerrika Karlae recently exposed him for cheating after searching through his phone. Jerrika found pictures of Amy, one of her former friends. Luciani calls Jerrika out for leaking the picture. She says Jerrika is a lame and claims that she has receipts.
We have to do better. Oprah’s Black Love series is inspiration for black couples around the world. If you know you can’t be faithful don’t get engaged. Can Young Thug expect people to respect his fiancée when he’s out here disrespecting her? Amy’s argument is that “You can’t take what you didn’t have.”
Amy Luciani Young Thug Side Chick
When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. Young Thug clearly didn’t learn that lesson. In the video below, the rapper claims that multiple people use his phone so the pictures weren’t sent to him.

Young Thug is not only making Jerrika look stupid, he’s expecting her to believe a horrible lie. The rapper is making life difficult for men around the world. In the following post, Tammy Rivera explains that she’s having flashbacks of Waka Flock’s cheating:
Keiotia Watson is the woman that claims Lil Wayne has a 15-year-old son that he has never met. In court documents obtained by TMZ, Watson claims that she had relations with Wayne back in 2001. She gave birth to a boy who she claims is Lil Wayne’s son. Keiotia named him Dwayne, Lil Wayne’s government name.
The Young Money/Cash Money crew need to get things together. A few months ago, Sophie Brussaux claimed that Drake’s her baby daddy. Once she gives birth we’ll see if she was telling the truth. Lil Wayne already has four children: Reginae, Dwayne III, Cameron and Neal.
Keiotia Watson Lil Wayne 15-Year-Old Son
Lil Wayne has never been shy about how much he loves the ladies, making this story believable. In the song “Alphabet” from his Sorry 4 The Wait 2 mixtape, the rapper describes all the females he has on his roster.
This case isn’t new. Keiotia filed for child support in 2015 and a judge ordered the rapper to pay $5,000 per month. Lil Wayne hasn’t made any payments and argues that he never received any legal documents.
