"I wanted it to be a dream so bad but every hour I’m reminded of reality so I wanna make sure I applaud you in the proper manner. You are the GREATEST MOTHER I KNOW your soul was beautiful Yu always wanted the best for others and I admired how our family love each other!!!"

Dc Young Fly's middle child, Nala, was born on Aug. 1, 2020. In her IG post, Jacky described Nala as a "Leo, climber of all things that she shouldn’t be on (couches, stairs, high chairs), (and) a singer & a dancer."

The star also noted that the four-year-old was different from her elder sister, calling her "rougher," but added that she eats everything she is given. Jacky shared that Nala has tried to eat dog food multiple times. She added that Nala is "energetic, curious, (and that she) ran before she walked."

DC Young Fly welcomed his youngest, Prince'Nehemiah, on July 29, 2022. He is currently two years old.
