Drake shares son Adonis with former partner Sophie Brussaux

The 'God's Plan' rapper, whose real name is Aubrey Drake Graham, shares Adonis with his former partner, French artist Sophie Brussaux. The former couple has supported co-parenting despite their ups and downs.

The 'Degrassi' alum even proclaimed himself "co-parent of the year" on his song 'Champagne Poetry', demonstrating how much the two had improved their co-parenting relationship over the years, reported People.

Drake sings, "I'm bigger now than before, Co-parent of the year, we figured out a rapport," in the song.

Adonis now divides his time between living with his mother in France and traveling to Toronto and Los Angeles to see Drake, where they engage in enjoyable father-son pastimes like watching NBA games from the court.

Drake is very open about their connection and often shares some of his favorite moments with his kid on social media. The rapper recently shared a few of the birthday parties he planned for Adonis in October, including a unique party with a 'SpongeBob SquarePants' theme.

The 'One Dance' rapper at the time posted pictures of himself and Adonis holding hands in front of a setting reminiscent of Bikini Bottom, replete with jellyfish and the cartoon's flower-shaped clouds in the background.

The screen displayed the words "Adonis' 7th Birthday," in a text inspired by SpongeBob. Drake captioned the photo with, "Big Don. 💘."

Adonis helps dad Drake in making music

Drake and Adonis' connection has only grown stronger over time with the 7-year-old contributing creatively to his father's work.

Adonis starred in Drake's '8 AM in Charlotte' music video and created the album cover art for the rapper's 'For All the Dogs' album in October. The LP also included a sample of Adonis's debut rap song, 'My Man', in the 'Daylight' track.



 

In a 2023 interview with the Barstool Sports segment 'Sundae Conversation', five-year-old Adonis raved about Drake as a "funny dad" who makes "a lot of funny jokes," and the rapper also lauded the time he spent with his kid.

"He definitely just always is vibing out with me, telling me like how great I am as a single father," Drake stated at the time, per Complex.

In a June Instagram photo, Drake also showcased his Father's Day celebration with his father, Dennis, and Adonis. The 'Passionfruit' artist posted several photos of himself with his father and kid. In one picture, the three of them stood together in a field while sporting cowboy hats.

The rapper captioned the post by saying, "Three generations 💘 Happy Fathers Day to the ones guiding their daughters and sons."
