Netflix’s latest rom-com You People starring Lauren London, Jonah Hill and Eddie Murphy. As the series continues to grow in popularity, some keen-eyed fans have noticed that the film features music from the actress’ baby daddy Lil Wayne and Nipsey Hussle. This led to great interest of fans in the actress’ personal life.
Lauren London is best known for appearing in music videos alongside music legends including Snoop Dogg, Ludacris, Pharrell and Tyrese. Adding to her credentials, she has also acted in television shows and films including This Christmas, baggage claim and ATL among others.
As her latest Netflix hit was released, netizens noticed an oddity at the beginning of the film. Twitter user @dirtyguccis revealed that music by Nipsey Hussle and Lil Wayne played in the first scene featuring Lauren London. The tweet read:
“So weird in the movie, “you people” in laura london’s first scene play a lil wayne song first and then a nipsey song next.”
While the same was being talked about on the internet, Twitter user @crownnte said in shock:
“WTF I DIDN’T KNOW LIL WAYNE AND LAUREN LONDON HAD A CHILD”
Who are Lauren London’s children?
Besides being a well-known celebrity, she is also known for her high-profile relationship with rapper Lil Wayne and late fellow singer Nipsey Hussle. This 38-year-old has a son from each relationship.
Her first son, Kameron Cartner, who is now 13, is the son of Lil Wayne. In a 2013 interview with Hot 97, London revealed that she had known the rapper since he was 15 years old. During their five-year relationship, she wanted to welcome her first son. She was then only 24 years old. Speaking about the terrifying experience, she said in an interview:
“I had my first son at the age of 24 and I was really afraid. I didn’t think I would do well and I wasn’t ready. I didn’t know what was going to happen or what I was going to do.”
London and Wayne broke up in 2009. The reason for their split remains unknown. However, in the interview she simply stated that “they failed. We tried to revive him several times, we were also engaged a few years ago, but in the end we broke up.”
It was revealed that the two parents are raising their son amicably.
London is also the mother of a six-year-old son, Kross Asghedom, who she had with the late rapper Nipsey Hussle. She was in a long-term relationship with the rapper from 2013 to 2019, when the musician was killed.
The mother of two usually keeps her private life behind the cameras. However, she remained open about dealing with grief and being a parent at the same time. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight last year, she revealed that she wanted her children to know that she was “moving forward with grief.” Lauren London said:
“It’s important that my sons see me moving forward with grief and not just curling up in a ball because I’ve been curling up in a ball for a long time.”
Lauren London occasionally shares pictures of her family life on her official Instagram profile.
