Inside Sophie Brussaux and Drake's co-parenting journey
After initially denying Adonis as his son, Drake publicly acknowledged him as his own, though he preferred to keep it a secret in the beginning. Later, he addressed the situation on his album Scorpion, including the song March 14, and later discussed his relationship with Brussaux on HBO's The Shop.
Drake said in the show that he and Sophie had found themselves in a situation for which they were “both equally responsible” and emphasized that he wanted to be a good father. The rapper also made it clear that he wanted Adonis to have a healthy relationship with his mother. He told LeBron James in the unscripted series:
"I am a single father learning to communicate with a woman who, we've had our moments. I do want to be able to explain to my son what happened. But I don't have any desire for him to not love his mother. I don't ever want the world to be angry at his mother. We have found ourselves in a situation, and we are both equally responsible."
Drake went on to say that he was "really excited to be a great father" and added, "No matter what happens, I have unconditional love for the mother of my child because I want him to love his mother and I have to project that energy."
Brussaux has also publicly praised Drake as a father, including a 2022 Father's Day message thanking him “for the amazing father you are to our son.”

"I wasn't hidin' my kid from the world / I was hidin' the world from my kid."
