Drake Shares New Pic of His 8-Year-Old Son, Adonis, Leaving Fans Amazed

Drake just dropped a new photo of his son Adonis — and instantly reminded the world of the wild scandal involving his mother, Sophie Brussaux. One look at the pic, and you’ll want to revisit the story that shook the rapper’s world.

The rapper rarely shows his child publicly, so any glimpse of the little one instantly becomes an event — and this latest picture may be his most surprising reveal yet.

In the new snap, Adonis stands confidently in a stylish tan-and-black OVO windbreaker, matching pants, and beige boots. His curls, his attitude, and his pose had fans stunned and instantly commenting on how much he’s grown.

Many couldn’t help but gush. One fan wrote, “Baby Justin Timberlake,” while another said, “He’s gotten so tall. Handsome kid.” Someone else chimed in with, “Awww he literally looks like Justin Timberlake when he was a kid lol.” And one person summed up the general mood perfectly: “Coolest kid on earth😍.”

The picture fueled the ongoing fascination with Drake’s son — a fascination that began long before Adonis ever made a public appearance. Years ago, before Adonis’ birth became publicly known, Drake was already embroiled in a complicated, very public paternity drama.

In May 2017, after Drake’s split from Jennifer Lopez, Sophie Brussaux claimed she was pregnant with his baby, a girl. A retired adult film star, she insisted she was three and a half months along and said conception happened around January 20 or 21.

Sophie reportedly hired powerful New York lawyer Raoul Felder to start the paternity and child support process, making the situation very public, very fast. She also shared what she said were text messages between her and Drake, and they were explosive.

In the alleged messages, Drake wrote, “I want you to have an abortion,” to which Brussaux responded, “I can’t kill my baby simply to indulge you sorry.”

A photo of the two at a Japanese restaurant in Amsterdam taken on January 24 added more fuel to the story., but Drake's team fought back hard, publicly questioning her credibility. His rep said, “This woman has a very questionable background."

All the drama that once surrounded Adonis’ arrival now feels like a distant echo next to the confident child Drake proudly shared this week.

Fans aren’t talking about scandals anymore — they’re talking about his smile, his style, and how fast he’s growing up. In the end, the picture says it all: Adonis is thriving.
