Jasmine's fans also commented on her post, with many of them crushing on her son's curly hair. Tia Mowry wrote, "Curls!!!," while Chrysa Chin said the baby was cute. Another fan asked:

"Does he look like his Grandpa?"

Michael Jordan became a grandfather for the first time when Jasmine welcomed Baby Rakeem last year. Baby Rakeem is Jasmine's child with her fiancé, Rakeem Christmas.

Jasmine is also carving a name for herself in the world of business and sports management.

The picture also showed the tattoo of the number "25" on Jasmine's hand, signifying the jersey number her boyfriend wore when he was playing for the Syracuse University basketball team.

In the caption to her post, Jasmine wrote, "Just In Time. I Love You Son." She also added the hashtag, "1st Mothers Day," to the post. Rakeem Christmas also confirmed his son's birth on his Instagram page.

Jasmine met Rakeem while she was a student at Syracuse University. While he was a star for the school's basketball team, she was studying sports management.

The pair struck a bond, which culminated in a beautiful relationship and is now blessed with an adorable son. Jasmine and Rakeem also got engaged in 2018.

While Jasmine is not as famous as her father, she is also carving a name for herself in the world of business and sports management. She works as an executive and field representative for the "Nike Jordan" brand.

In that role, the 27-year-old has helped in the designs, colorways, and direction of one of the brand's collections, the "Jordan Heiress Collection," which was launched in 2018.

She also works with the Charlotte Hornets, her father's basketball franchise, where she represents some of the players via the "Nike Jordan Brand." Despite this, she keeps a low profile, just like her father does.

In an interview with "Instyle," Jasmine attributed that part of her to how she was raised by her mother, who made her not to take life for granted.
