“Yes, a lot of us,” Jennifer said with a laugh. “Apparently, he had 27 children… I’ve never met all of them.”
“It was my dream to have all of us at this grand Thanksgiving or Christmas table, and we all sit and eat together — that was my goal at 16,” she added. “We found quite a few of us. And I’m the youngest of all of them.”
Jennifer said she started meeting the siblings after her dad’s mother passed away.
“When my grandma on his side passed, my siblings over there were like, ‘Y’all got a sister that can really sing, you should meet her.’ And eventually we all came together,” she said.
Jennifer recently gave a rare update on her relationship with boyfriend Common.
