HIS ESSENCE AS A FATHER
In a recent interview on the Oprah Winfrey Network, Franklin reflected on his role as a Black father. He said he makes sure his children get the "baton" and understand the price of not dropping it.
As Caziah returned to college for his sophomore year, Franklin, whose father passed away in 2018, is excited for his son carving his own path. He added, "because how he flies is my report card as a father."
Franklin and Collins have been married for 24 years, a rare feat in the entertainment industry.
