Tia Kemp is addressing the public after false reports claimed her son with rapper Rick Ross had been involved in a recent shooting.
While one of her kids was indeed shot over the weekend, it wasn’t William Leonard Roberts III, her son with Rick Ross.
Kemp took to her Instagram Stories to set the record straight.
“Thank you to everyone for your prayers. God is the Greatest!!” she wrote.
She then slammed the false information circulating online, saying, “Every BLOG has posted FALSE information!! Until you hear from me, remove my child off your BLOGS and pages!! Y’all posting the wrong person and information.”
So who was shot? The shooting victim was actually Kemp’s 27-year-old son, who was injured in a drive-by shooting in Miami, Florida, on Friday, October 11.
According to a local news station, the incident occurred while a man in his 60s was delivering drinks to a grocery store. During the attack, both the man and Kemp’s son were hit by bullets, with her son seemingly the intended target.
Following the shooting, Kemp rushed to the hospital to be with her son, but reports indicate she was escorted out. It has been suggested that her ex-partner, Big Dee, was responsible for her removal from the premises.
Tia Kemp is reportedly a mother of three sons. She shares her two older sons from her previous relationship with Dee, but she’s kept their names private while occasionally sharing pictures of them on social media.
Her youngest, William Leonard Roberts III, was born in September 2005 from her relationship with Rick Ross. The high school football standout graduated from St. Thomas Aquinas High School in October 2023 and has committed to Bethune-Cookman University.
