Skai Jackson, known for her role on Disney Channel Jesseofficially became a mother. The actress announced the birth of her first child via Instagram, sharing an adorable photo of her baby wrapped in a flannel jumpsuit and gently holding her fingers.
Jackson appears to have named her baby “Kasai,” although she did not confirm the baby’s gender. However, comments from friends referring to the child as “he” suggested she had welcomed a baby boy.
Just months before Kasai’s arrival, Jackson’s life had gone through a controversial phase. In August, the actress was arrested for domestic violence after an alleged altercation with her boyfriend, Yerkky Yerkky. The case was dismissed later that month because her record was clean, there were no apparent injuries, and the alleged victim was unwilling to cooperate with authorities.
Last November, Yerkky Yerkky made headlines again when she posted an insulting Facebook post about Skai, calling her a “Disney Channel asshole” and expressing regret over her pregnancy. However, Jackson and her mother claim his account was hacked and deny he wrote the post.
