Drake Reveals Where His Son Was Conceived: 'There Would Be No Adonis If...'
Drake loves Amsterdam because his son was conceived there. The God's Plan hitmaker – who has seven-year-old Adonis with artist Sophie Brussaux – performed in the Dutch city on Wednesday and told the audience the city will always hold a 'very special place" in his heart for very personal reasons.
In a video shared to X by a fan, Drake could be heard saying: 'I was saying backstage, I was saying that this is the place. A very special place in my heart. Because this is where my son was conceived. So this is a big show for me, you know? I hold Amsterdam very dear to my heart. There would be no Adonis if there wasn't an Amsterdam, so shoutout to y'all."
In November, Drake shared a sweet note on Instagram that his son had given him, in which the youngster thanked his dad for 'giving [him] such a good life". The brief letter, which was handwritten in blue and red ink, read: 'Thank you for giving me such a good life and a good family. I love you, Dad. Adonis to Dad."
Adonis – who speaks French and English – splits his time living in France with his mom, as well as in Los Angeles and Toronto with his dad. Drake revealed in June 2018 that he had a son, and he previously admitted it was 'freeing" to open up about his little boy.
He said: 'I posted those pictures. It was great for me. It was great to just share that with the world and I just felt like … It wasn't even anything I talked to anybody about or anything I planned. I just woke up one morning and I was like, you know what? This is just something that I want to do. I want to be able to go places with my son and share memories with my son. I don't want to feel like just because of a life choice I made to be a 'celebrity' that I got to make everybody live under this blanket. So, I just wanted to free myself of that."
The 38-year-old rapper put on a 'SpongeBob SquarePants'-themed birthday party to mark Adonis turning seven earlier this year and shared the photos on Instagram. The father-and-son duo posed in front of a Bikini Bottom backdrop, with Adonis in a bright yellow t-shirt, and the Grammy Award-winner rocking an orange 'Fox Racing' long-sleeved shirt. The picture carousel also highlighted Adonis playing soccer with his friends, as well as jumping in a bouncy castle.

Prince Harry Hit This Royal Family Member During An Argument In 2013, Gave Him A Bloody Nose
A new book by Andrew Lownie claimed that Prince Andrew and Harry had a heated argument in 2013 at a family gathering over something "Andrew said behind Harry's back." A new book has revealed that Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, had a heated argument with Prince Harry at a family gathering in 2013 in which 'punches were thrown". The book, called Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, claimed that the two princes got into a physical fight years ago over 'something Andrew said behind Harry's back". The book's author, Andrew Lownie, shed light on the 'problematic" relationship between the Duke of York and his nephews, William and Harry. Excerpts quoted by The Telegraph claimed that Harry 'got the better of Andrew by all accounts" during the alleged fight and left his uncle with a 'bloody nose" before the fight was broken up. Prince Andrew, King Charles' younger brother, who fell from grace over his links to sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, is believed to have told Harry that his marriage to Meghan Markle would not 'last more than a month". Furthermore, he allegedly accused his nephew of going 'bonkers" and not doing 'any due diligence into her past" before the pair married in 2018. The source quoted in Lownie's book claimed that Harry later told his brother William that 'he hated Andrew". 'William has long worked behind the scenes to evict his uncle from Royal Lodge, the home he occupies in Windsor Great Park. He thinks Andrew is abusing the property and his privilege there," Lownie wrote. Andrew has been facing the threat of eviction from the 30-room property after the King severed his allowance, estimated to be worth £1m annually, last year, according to The Telegraph. A source in Lownie's book claimed that the Prince of Wales is keen to 'evict" Andrew and his wife from the lavish estate. These revelations came after Harry revealed in his memoir, Spare, that he got into a physical fight with his elder brother over his relationship with Meghan Markle. He claimed that Prince William shoved him to the floor in a physical altercation at Kensington Palace in 2019, when he confronted him over Markle's 'rude" and 'abrasive" behaviour. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
