“He’s definitely going to know about his father.”

The mother of XXXTentacion's son kept her identity under wraps after the slain rapper's mother announced that he was expecting a child before his death in June 2018.

Eight months after the rapper's death and one month after the birth of their son, Jenesis Sanchez delivered her first interview.

    The Tama native revealed that she's steered clear of the public eye due to the fact that she had a high-risk pregnancy and delivery. "The original plan was to have a home birth, but it didn't really work out... At this point, we're at 26 hours in labor. And they were, like, 'I'm sorry. We're going to have to do an emergency C-section.I feel like Jahseh and me wouldn't have had it any other way I think it is very strange that the first thing a baby sees are all these doctors with masks and stuff all over their face," she explained.

  • The new mom revealed that she and XXX knew each other for years, but began dating in January 2018

    She opened up about how they managed to stay out of the public eye over the course of their relationship. "Me and Jahseh, we are like hermit crabs. We didn't like to go out. We spent a lot of time at home. We spent a lot of time playing video games.We really didn't care to go out because even if we did, people were noticing him. We even got to the point where we would go grocery shopping sometimes at midnight."

  • She beamed with pride as she shared how she plans to teach her son about his late father

    Despite that the fact that the rapper died amid a slew of legal troubles, Sanchez was clear on the fact that she planned on informing their son about his father's legacy.

    "I'm definitely not going to ever lie about him. He's going to hear about his dad 24/7. I'm going to tell him about all the fond memories I have with his dad, Jahseh. I'm going to tell him how much his dad would have loved him.I know sometimes, probably when he gets older, it will affect him more than now when he is younger, but he's definitely going to know about his father."
