Deion Sanders and his family are known for their playful online interactions, showing a strong bond and good humor. Recently, the focus has been on Deiondra Sanders, who is expecting a baby with her boyfriend, R&B singer Jacquees. Deiondra’s pregnancy updates and baby bump photos have been making waves online. Amidst that, she also celebrated her 32nd birthday, on April 17th receiving a ton of well-wishes, including a playful video from Coach Prime.

While wishing Deiondra a happy birthday, he couldn’t help but poke fun at a photo of her with Jacquees, saying, “You can’t do that!” It seems Coach Prime was amused by Jacquees’ slightly awkward pose in the picture. Now this lighthearted teasing continued in another viral video too.

In a recent “Well Off Media” video, Deion Sanders couldn’t resist playfully teasing his pregnant daughter Deiondra and her boyfriend Jacquees. Browsing photos of Deiondra showing off her baby bump, Coach Prime said, “Oh she’s going to have a stomach out!” Then, he came across a picture of Deiondra with Jacquees and burst out laughing. “Look at her little man, little baby. Look at her!” He chuckled, and was joined by someone off-camera (likely Deion Sanders Jr.) who added, “He’s shorter than her.”

The photo showed Jacquees awkwardly posed next to Deiondra, who towered over him in heels. Coach Prime couldn’t resist a good-natured jab saying, “He can’t take that kind of picture, man. Dawg..come on dawg. You going to be in the family. Come on man, you got stand up.”  This playful teasing about height isn’t new in the Sanders family, especially since Deiondra recently said she expects a “tall baby.”

Deiondra and Jacquees, both roughly around 5’5″, have been the center of playful height jokes within the Sanders family ever since Deiondra’s pregnancy. First, her brother Deion Sanders Jr. teased, “He might not even pass 5 [feet]!” Then, Coach Prime also joined in for a good laugh on the yet-to-be-born baby’s height. They even joked about whether the baby would be tall or short, placing a friendly bet on if it’d be over or under 5’3″.

Determined to shut down the jokes, Deiondra shared a sonogram of her 18-week-old baby, who already weighed a healthy 10 ounces. She proudly said, “The arms are measuring LONGER so we may have a tall baby y’all!” Jacquees tried to take credit, but Deiondra quickly shut him down saying, “It’s definitely not you.”  Finally, they both acknowledged that the baby’s height is likely due to those tall Sanders genes.  Now the Sanders family definitely knows how to enjoy such jokes without letting down the spirit of the other.
