DC Young Fly and Jacky Oh met on the sets of ‘Wild ‘N Out’ in 2015, giving birth to a long and wholesome relationship, where the couple shared three children together, daughters Nova and Nala, and the youngest addition last year, son Prince. The 32-year-old former MTV star’s untimely death shocked everyone in the Young Fly fan fraternity. The rapper was actually shooting a new episode of WNO in Atlanta when he received the earth-shattering news of his partner’s demise. He shared a gut-wrenching post on Instagram this week, applauding her presence in his life, both as a partner and as a mother.

I wanted it to be a dream so bad, but every hour I’m reminded of reality, so I wanna make sure I applaud you in the proper manner,” Young wrote. “You are the GREATEST MOTHER I KNOW. The QUEEN of my children will always have a spot in my heart and the paradise.

I do a lot. But being a mommy is my favorite,” Jacky Oh recently captioned her Mother’s Day IG post. Jacky Oh was also an entrepreneur and recently launched her own lip-gloss line called J Nova Collection. In addition to that, Jacky also regularly hosted her fans on her YouTube channel with over 600,000 subscribers, where she chronicled her daily life with DC Young Fly and their three kids.
