Flavor Flav is now a father of a three-year-old son, Jordan. According to reports, the news was confirmed after the American rapper underwent a paternity test. Jordan’s maternal grandparents Barry and Parachi stated in an interview that their daughter Kate was previously Flav’s manager and they were romantically linked at the time.
Kate got pregnant and gave birth to Jordan, although Flav was not sure if the kid was his son. Flav then submitted his DNA that matched Jordan’s.
A child support and custody arrangement has been established and Flav is spending more time with Jordan these days. Flav taught Jordan how to play drums and talked to Kate about Jordan taking his family name, Drayton.
The two have filed legal documents, and a hearing is scheduled for later this year. Jordan is Flav’s eighth child.
