Deiondra Sanders and her beau Jacquees are overflowing with joy after their successful gender reveal party. The 32-year-old mom-to-be felt the love and support of her family, including her mom Carolyn Chambers, and brother Deion Sanders Jr. But her father, Deion Sanders, was noticeably missing from the gender reveal. Thus she might have hoped a pink smoke would make up for the concern as she was “team girl.” But a wave of confusion washed over her when blue smoke filled the air.

However, her boyfriend, R&B singer Jacquees, had been confident in his “team boy” prediction. The couple had even encouraged fans to vote in the comments to see which team would win. In the end, Jacquees’ intuition is what won as the blue smoke confirmed they were expecting a boy.

Though initially wavering between hoping for a girl or boy, Deiondra was overcome with emotion as blue smoke filled the air. Tears welled up in her eyes as her supportive mom Carolyn Chambers rushed in to congratulate her. She soon found herself surrounded by well-wishers, as her brother Deion Sanders Jr. filmed the special moment. Seeing that, Deiondra approached her brother and shared a long, heartfelt hug with him. 

This pregnancy journey has been particularly tough for Deiondra, who faced challenges due to fibroids. Her family has been her rock throughout, with her mother accompanying her to anatomy scans and her brother sharing every milestone on social media. The Sanders crew has truly shown up for each other. While Deion Sanders was notably absent from the gender reveal, he has been present for Deiondra throughout her pregnancy journey. From advising her on healthy lifestyle choices to posting encouraging messages online, the 56-year-old father has shown his support. Though he missed the “blue smoke moment” let’s hope Deion soon makes it for for his grandson.
