Donning an aqua blue mini dress with a neckline that plunged to her waist, the actress was flanked by mom Talita Long and sons Massai Zhivago Dorsey Jr. and Kez. An unidentified young lady, who is probably a relative, also posed with the family.

Nia was raised by her mother, Talita after the latter and the actress’s father, Doughtry “Doc” Long, got divorced. Talita was an art teacher while Doc is a respected poet and author. The “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” alum is quick to credit Talita for the strength and inspiration she employs in raising her sons till this day.

Nia welcomed her first son, Maasai in November 2000 with her partner at the time, actor Massai Dorsey. The proud mom had cause to celebrate a few months ago when Maasai decided he’d be attending Eastern Kentucky University.

Moving on from her ex, Nia began dating Philadelphia 76ers assistant coach, Ime Udoka, in 2010. A year later, in November, they welcomed their son Kez.

Nia and Udoka got engaged in 2015, and even though they remain unmarried, the lovebirds are very present in each other’s lives. A look through Nia’s Instagram page shows that her fiancé is often there for family trips and special occasions.

In May, the proud mommy shared a photo of her and Udoka at their son’s school presentation. “This little superstar sang his heart out today,” Nia announced. “I’m so proud of my boys. Mommy and daddy love you so much, Kezzie!”
