July 2024 ยท 1 minute read

Wayans has shared a number of posts in the past that praise his daughter and their family. She turned 19 on May 24 and he wrote that his "purpose shifted" after she was born.

"May 24, 2000, i pulled you from your mother's womb, i held you in my arms and my world changed. My purpose shifted. I no longer lived for me... i lived for you, for my family, for us. You gave me purpose. You made me tender, you made me communicate, you made me humble, you made me attentive, you made me listen, you made me grow up," he penned.

Wayans said in that same caption that he often encouraged her to go one way but she defied him and went the other.

"You a strong minded and have always been," he said of his daughter. "I tried to make you a righty you said 'no n---a LEFT'. I tried to steer you straight you said 'no n---a gay'. I tried demand things to be my way and you said 'why?'"
