Angela Simmons commemorated the life of her former fiancé and her son’s father, Sutton Tennyson, in a touching post on social media exactly a year after his death.
The Growing Up Hip Hop took to instagram on Sunday to share a message for Tennyson, who was shot and killed in the driveway of his Atlanta home last November. He was 37.
The intimate message was accompanied with a photo of Tennyson sleeping with his now three-year-old son with Simmons, Sutton “SJ” Joseph.
“Sutton , you left us exactly a year ago today. I want to let you know your baby boy is flourishing , he’s growing,” she wrote. He’s everything you knew he’d be and even more. I look at him everyday….and I see you so much . You’d be so proud of him . The way I’m proud of him.”
