Luvv Jones’s caption read, “Ciara Princess Harris (Wilson) was born in Fort Hood, Texas, on October 25, 1985. She was the only child of Jackie and Carlton Clay Harris. She was a military brat. Since both of Ciara’s parents were in the military, her family moved around a lot when she was a kid. ‘I’m a military brat,’ she told The Spokesman-Review. ‘I’ve lived in Germany, New York, California, and lots of other places. My mom was in the Air Force, and my dad was in the Army.’”

Moreover, Jones left everyone crazy with all things related to her growing up. She also shed light on her early education, family, and her success as a model and singer.

“Her family eventually settled in Georgia. Ciara attended North Clayton High School before transferring to Riverdale High School in Georgia. Where she graduated in 2003.⁣ Ciara was a dancer before anything, always wanted to be an entertainer but didn’t know at what capacity. In 10th grade, she watched Destiny’s Child perform on TV & that was affirmation for her to become a performer,” Jones further mentioned in her post.

This is not the first time that the R&B singer’s emotions toward the army have come out. Earlier, the Grammy Award winner’s Mad Max-looking photoshoot ended on the internet. In which she looked vibrant, donning an army-themed outfit. She also exposed the massive modified vehicle RAM 2500 in the post. Her choice of army style displayed her adoration for the military.
