"Happy Birthday mamaaaaaa !!!! Celebrating you just like you on this day everyday ? ain’t no party like a Lady T party ???"

Growing up, Alia and her mother were very close, and the death of Teena must have devastated Alia even more because she was the one who found her mother's dead body on the day after her 18th birthday.

In another Instagram post, Alia who had her son Pharoah Alexander Ray, on November 29, 2017, shared an adorable picture of her baby boy. The toddler who had nothing but his boots and Pampers on wore a confused look as his photo was taken. Alia in her caption of the image joked about how her son was used as a meme by one of her friends.

But most of her fans found the picture lovely and even commented on how sad it is that Teena is not here to see what her grandchild looks like.

Regardless of everything that's happened to her, Alia seems to be in a good place and is grateful for the family that she has.
