How Many Kids Does Drake Have?

Drake has 2 children. His first son, Adonis Mahbed Graham, was born on October 11, 2017, with French artist Sophie Brussaux. Drake initially kept Adonis's existence private, only acknowledging his son publicly in 2018 after the topic became a focal point in his widely publicized dispute with rapper Pusha T.

Since then, Drake has embraced fatherhood openly, frequently sharing photos and videos of Adonis on social media and speaking in interviews about how having a child fundamentally changed his outlook on life, music and legacy. Adonis lives primarily in Toronto with Drake and speaks both English and French fluently, splitting time between his father in Canada and his mother in France.

Drake's second child was born more recently, though he has kept the details significantly more private. The rapper appears to have learned from the media storm around Adonis's initial revelation and has chosen to control the narrative around his growing family on his own terms rather than allowing it to become public through outside sources.

🏠 Toronto and Family Roots

Drake built The Embassy, a 50,000 square foot estate in Toronto's Bridle Path neighborhood, which serves as both his home and a recording complex. The property includes an NBA-regulation basketball court, a recording studio and living quarters designed with Adonis in mind. Drake has spoken about wanting his son to grow up with deep roots in Toronto, the city that shaped his own identity and artistic vision.

His mother Sandi Graham and father Dennis Graham have both been public about their support for Drake's parenting journey. Sandi frequently appears in Drake's social media posts with Adonis, and the multi-generational family dynamic has become an important part of how Drake presents his personal life publicly.
