MEET JAZZ ANDERSON

Tami and Kenny's youngest, Jazz is an aspiring rapper and songwriter who frequently releases her music on iTunes and SoundCloud, and had a hit with the song "All I Want" in 2016, when she was just 18.

Jazz may be as stunning as a mom, but she is also sporty just like dad and played basketball in high school, and for the NCAA at Prairie View A&M University, a prestigious HBCU in Texas.

Jazz admitted in an interview that she had harbored some resentment towards her father for his distance throughout her childhood when he was at the height of his career. Kenny suffered a stroke, and this led Jazz to let go of her anger and resentment.

Tami admitted that getting married was Reggie's idea, and one she finally agreed to after some soul-searching. She revealed:

"This man genuinely loves me. And this is something that he wants and never experienced. So I’d be selfish to not travel down that road with someone who I really love.”

Tami now 50, revealed that in 2015 she suffered a miscarriage at 10 weeks, losing the baby she and Reggie so desperately wanted. Tami admitted that the miscarriage was due to her health issues. She said:

"I have a prolapsed uterus and am diabetic. I battle bouts of hypoglycemia due to my diabetes and my blood pressure continually ran high."

The loss of their baby hit Reggie, who is 17 younger than Tami, particularly hard. He revealed:

"This is a tough time for us. It is the worst pain I've felt since losing my mother."

In February 2020, Tami revealed that she and Reggie have suffered 3 miscarriages and are currently looking for a surrogate to carry their baby. She said:

"I saw Kandi had somebody have her baby. I said 'Oh okay, chile, that's what we doing now?'"

Tam has revealed that they have already harvested the eggs, so this may be the year that Lyric and Jazz welcome a brand new baby brother and sister.
