“My Mom Was My Purpose, Now It’s You,” Shemar Moore Pays Tribute to His Late Mother and Shares New Pics with His Newborn

Shemar Moore recently shared adorable pics of his newborn. As a new daddy, he paid the sweetest tribute to his late mother, Marilyn, who passed away in 2020. Moore’s mom’s passing was a big nightmare for him, but his baby is now filling the void completely.

He welcomed his first child, daughter Frankie, in January.

In January this year, Shemar Moore shared some exciting news during an interview — he’s going to be a father for the first time. He couldn’t contain his excitement and described it as a dream come true. Moore has been incredibly open and honest about his emotions and concerns throughout his wife’s pregnancy. This has given fans a special glimpse into his personal life and the beautiful journey he’s embarking on toward parenthood.

He had an unyielding love for his mama.

Since his mother’s multiple sclerosis diagnosis in 1999, Moore has been a constant presence by her side. He noted, “My love for my mom is real, and I want her to beat this thing. She’s my Super Woman, and she needs to know that someone is out there fighting for her at all times.”

Unfortunately, Moore shared the heartbreaking news of his mother’s passing in 2020, expressing his deep grief and sadness over losing her. It was an incredibly difficult time for him. However, in the years that followed, life continued to bring him surprises. He experienced the pure joy of fatherhood and the arrival of his first child, which brought a renewed sense of happiness and hope into his life.

On the 19th of June, 2023, he shared new photos on his Instagram.

He took to Instagram to share a series of photos, capturing his first Father’s Day ever. Overflowing with gratitude and blessings, he reflected on his unique journey. Growing up without his father’s presence, he had never celebrated Father’s Day. However, he came to realize the love between his mother and father that once existed, and it was that love that brought him into the world.

Throughout his life, he honored and celebrated his mother every day, as she had always dreamed of becoming a grandmother. Although his mother’s time was cut short, his daughter, Frankie Moore, fulfilled her dream.

With profound joy and a renewed sense of purpose, he declared that his daughter had become his greatest triumph. He believes that his mother went to heaven and asked God to grant him the greatest gift of his life—Frankie and his family. Overwhelmed with emotion, he expressed his love and gratitude to Jesiree, the mother of his child, for bringing this beautiful miracle into his life.
