(Video) Their Grandson & Birthday Message To Lauryn Hill

https://www.instagram.com/p/BjPrBSyFQo0/

Like his beloved Jamaican father, Rohan Marley is a devoted Rastafarian. In his many online posts, he makes that very clear and in his b-day post to Lauryn Hill (shown above), instead of wishing her a ‘happy birthday,’ he sent her the “BLESSED EARTH STRONG” salute. ‘Blessed (or happy) earth strong’ is the common Jamaican patois phrase used among Rastas, to represent the number of years one has been going strong on this earth.

Zephaniah is the son of Lauryn’s and Rohan’s 20 year old son, Zion Marley (shown above). Rohan refers to Lauryn as their grandson’s “Bama,” although it’s unclear what that means. Anywho, needless to say, little Zephaniah is gonna have quite the multicultural upbringing- his grandmommy’s soulful/hip hop roots; his grandpops’ Rasta roots; his great-grandpops’ Rasta roots and half Syrian-Jewish bloodline; his daddy, Zion’s, hip hop roots; and his mother, Tanasa’s….well not much is really known about Zephaniah’s mother (shown below), but she’s beautiful though.

Lauryn’s Rarely Seen Sixth Child & Past Confusion About His Dad

While we’re on the topic of Lauryn’s offspring, let us share with y’all new photos of her rarely seen 6 year old son, Micah Hill. Lauryn’s lil’ man will be turning 7 this year (2018) and his big sister, Selah (Sarah) Marley, showed him love online recently. Check out the pics below…

Together Lauryn Hill and Rohan Marley share 5 children. Rohan also has two older children from a prior relationship. For the longest, fans had assumed that Lauryn’s sixth child, Micah, was Rohan’s son, because most did not know they’d broken up after 10 years. In 2011, shortly after giving birth to Micah (who’s real father’s identity remains a secret) Lauryn released a statement to fans about Rohan:

“Mr. Marley and I have a long and complex history about which MANY inaccuracies have been reported since the beginning,” Hill wrote on her website. “To speculate without the facts can only cause people to form WRONG conclusions.”

Prior to Lauryn releasing her statement, many fans bashed Rohan for ‘not supporting’ Lauryn throughout her pregnancy with Micah, due to their assumptions that he was Micah’s dad. However, out of his respect for Lauryn, Rohan refrained from letting the public know the child was not his. He left that up to Lauryn to clear up, before speaking on the topic in 2011:

“People would rather listen to gossip than hear from the actual individuals,” Rohan Marley tweeted. “Some people just don’t want the truth.”

Rohan Expressed Regret After Split

Following their split, Rohan did an interview expressing how much he still loved Lauryn and the regrets he has:

“I feel sad that I loved her so much and I faltered in expressing it to her somehow. It was my fault that she did not understand how I felt, and it was sad that we did not work out in that relationship sense. I was heartbroken for a long time.”

It’s sad that Lauryn’s and Rohan’s relationship couldn’t last, but they seem to be a happily blended co-parenting family today. Below are photos of them celebrating grandson, Zephaniah’s, 1 year birthday in February 2018 (be sure to swipe left to see all the pics):

If you grew up in the 90’s, then you probably had her mother’s CD in your car. She’s sold millions upon millions of records throughout her impressive career and she’s won 9 Grammy awards. Her talented mother is a songwriter and an actress who is known for speaking out on the social injustices of the world.

This dynamic singer pours her soul into music and once created an album that was based on her relationship heartache. Not only did she have a successful career as a member of a R&B group as well as a solo career. Scroll down to see who this little cutie pie calls ‘Mommy…

Her Mother Is A Musical Icon!

The little girl in the photo is none other than, Selah Marley, the daughter of musical legend Lauryn Hill and the son of a music icon, Rohan Marley (son of the late Bob Marley). Taking a different route than her musical parents, Selah is becoming successful in her own right as a model with an impressive resume that includes working with Chanel, Calvin Klein, Kanye West’s Yeezy Season presentation, Beyonce’s Ivy Park, and much more. Bearing a striking resemblance to her mother, the young model is more than just a beautiful face. Selah is college student who’s currently studying science and spirituality at New York University. I’m sure her parents are beyond proud…

What Selah Marley Is Working Toward In The Fashion World

In an article with Vibe magazine, Selah discussed creating a project to allow her fans to see another, deeper side. While modeling is nice, oftentimes, we don’t really get to know the person in front of the camera. Selah’s working to change that. While she isn’t exactly sure of her plans, if she’s anything like her mother, we have no doubt that it’ll be great.

“I’m working on a project that basically expresses the entirety of myself. I feel like modeling can be a little surface,” says Marley. “I think this project is really just the purest expression of myself and things I’ve internalized for a long time. It’s a little bit of a blog, Marley explained.  I don’t really know what to call it, but it’s going to be a really interactive, visually enticing experience.”

As a child, Selah always wanted to be a model. At the young age of 11, Selah reminisced with Vogue magazine about her first experience with the catwalk. She told her Pops that she wanted to model and he asked her to strut her stuff in front of him, along with his girlfriend who was a model too.

“I was like 11, in sixth grade, and I lived with my dad, so he was staying at the Gansevoort, near Times Square, and I just told him, ‘Daddy, I want to model.’ He was with his girlfriend at the time, who was a model. He said. ‘All right, do the catwalk.’ So I did a little two-step for them!”
