Someone else comments: “Leave this family alone. They just hugged, why does it matter how it looked to everyone else and what it really meant for these two? We as people need to do better and worry about what’s going on in our own lives.”
“You owe no one no explanation/apologies young king. You and your mom are blessed to have each other,” adds a third.
Posting in the comments on his mom’s video, son Brixton replies: “Some of you need Jesus. She’s my mom I did pick her up she didn’t jump on me it was a hug, get the f*** over it for real.”
Further down, he responds directly to someone else telling people to leave his mom ‘alone’ before calling her his ‘hero.’
Recently, the single mother took to Instagram again to share a text message from Brixton – in which he shared that his father had sadly taken his own life.
To honor him, he wore the number 44 jersey, which is the day and month that he died, April 4th.
