Deion Sanderswill soon be adding grandfather to his long list of accomplishments!
In anInstagrampost on Friday, Sanders' 31-year-old daughter Deiondra Sanders announced that she’s expecting her first child with her partner, Jacquees. The R&B musician also confirmed the happy news with his ownInstagrampost on Saturday, featuring a photo of him kissing Deiondra’s belly.
The “You” singer, 29, included the photo within a carousel of snapshots and videos of the couple on vacation together. “My definition of real LOVE 🙏🏾♾️❤️,” he captioned the post.
The first scene included a medical professional telling her that “it’s gonna be kind of hard in the future to conceive a child” since she’s had fourmyomectomies— surgical procedures to remove fibroid tumors.
The woman went on to tell Deiondra that her chances of getting pregnant were “slim” and if she did, it would be a “high-risk” pregnancy.
