Wilson is now a father, sharing a daughter, Sienna, 3, with Ciara, with the couple expecting another son. He is also a loving step-father to Ciara's son, Future, 6, who she shares with her ex, rapper Future.

The star's mother, Tammy Wilson, appearing on a podcast, revealed that she advised her son to take Future like his own son, even if it meant giving him his own name, adding that he couldn't be with someone if he wanted to treat the person's child differently.

Ciara and Wilson tied the knot in an intimate ceremony that was held in July 2016 at Peckforton Castle, Cheshire, UK, that had stars like Serena Williams, Kelly Rowland, and Lala Anthony in attendance.

They announced that they were expecting a child a year after their nuptials, and welcomed Sienna in April 2017. Their union remains exemplary and is filled with love and acceptance.
