Shemar Moore Fulfilled 'Mom's Dream' with 2-Week-Old Daughter on Her Death Anniversary: 'I Love and Miss You'

• Shemar Moore barely survived the death of his mother, who died a few years ago.

• Now at 52, he has become a father after he thought "that ship had sailed."

• He recently took his daughter, two weeks after her birth, and girlfriend to a special spot where his mother's spirit lives on.

Shemar Moore, famous for his roles in shows such as "Criminal Minds" and "S.W.A.T.," announced the death of his beloved mother, Marylin Joan Wilson-Moore, in 2020. The actor's mom passed away on February 8 at the age of 76. The actor shared the news with his followers on Instagram.

Shemar posted images and videos of his late mother and admitted in the caption that he was having difficulty processing the news. The actor was obviously extremely close with his late mom, and her death came as a huge blow. Although he didn't disclose her cause of death, he alluded that it was heart problems.

The actor admitted that Marilyn's death was exceptionally difficult to handle, since his mother had always been there for him. He mentioned, "She's gone and it's killing me." He shared on Instagram:

"My mother, best friend, and partner in crime passed away. I miss her more than I ever thought possible and I don't know how to do this life without her… but I get my STRENGTH from her and I will be OK because of HER."

Luckily, Shemar had some excellent news following his mom's passing. The actor announced that his girlfriend, Jesiree Dizon, was pregnant. The 52-year-old could barely wait to spread the word, saying he thought "that maybe that ship had sailed." Now, he finally has the opportunity to be a dad.

Shemar spoke about becoming a dad on "The Jennifer Hudson Show," saying he was looking forward to making one of his late mom's dreams come true. The actor and his girlfriend welcomed their new daughter early in 2023, and they were over the moon to share the news.

Besides being a dedicated mother, Shemar's girlfriend, Jesiree, is also a successful model and actress.

Shemar expressed his excitement at being a dad. He posted news of his new daughter in an Instagram post, captioning it, "Ya boy is officially a Dad!!!" Although the little one is Shemar's first biological child, Jesiree shares three children with her ex.

A while after little Frankie was born, Shemar and Jesiree decided to honor his late mother by taking their newborn to where the "spirit of Grandma Marilyn" lives on. The trio sat in front of Marilyn's grave and posed for a sweet family photo.

At only two weeks, Frankie had the chance to see one of her dad's most special places, and Shemar happily shared it with his family. Although he's an older father, he's grateful for the opportunity to have a kid of his own. He mentioned, "it took me a minute, but momma's dream is now reality!!"

Besides being a dedicated mother, Shemar's girlfriend, Jesiree, is also a successful model and actress. She shares one daughter, Charli Bishop, with her ex Stephen Bishop and a boy with an unnamed partner. For Charli's 5th birthday, the model shared a touching post on social media:

"5 years ago you came into my life and changed it in a way I never knew I needed…. And I'm glad I never have to know what life is like without you again."

Jesiree enjoys family life just as much as Shemar does. The actor made it clear that he was looking to settle down and build a family. He has found success as an actor and wanted to test his skills as a family man. In an interview, the actor shared:

"I want to be a family man. I want to be a father, I want to have a partner in crime, a woman to share [my life] with. I want to continue to evolve, I want to continue to take the next step in my life. In my personal life."

Luckily, Shemar seems to have found the partner he was looking for, and he finally started on building the family he so wanted. However, he's not going to let his career stagnate. The actor stated he still has many roles left in him, and he's excited to see what the rest of his career holds for him.
