In the two-slide post, the second photo was a throwback picture of herself and her grandfather from one of Lyrics' first red carpet events, thirteen years ago.

The 'stunner,' as fans in the comment section called her, also posted a picture of herself striking a pose, as the paparazzi clicked away at their cameras.

Lyric was born to Smokey's only daughter, Tamla Robinson and the father-of-three has two other grandkids from his son, Berry Robinson.

The iconic soul singer was married to Claudette Rogers in 1959, and were together for 27 years, during which they had two children; Tamla and Berry Robinson, whose names were inspired by Smokey’s best friend, Berry Gordy.

According to I Love Oldschool Music, Smokey filed for legal separation from Claudette in 1986, after he admitted in his book that he'd had an affair. Smokey's other son, Trey, was born shortly before their divorce battle began in 1985.
