When a lot of us were first introduced to TV personality and model Mimi Faust, her daughter Eva, whom she shares with former partner, songwriter/producer and colleague Stevie J, was still a toddler. She is currently a highschool freshman who was simply having fun with her first highschool dance. That’s right, it is time to go home!
The teenager, who will turn 15 at the tip of the yr, attended her school’s homecoming dance, which was themed as a masquerade. For the occasion, she wearing somewhat black dress and an identical mask. The curls were curly too!
Both Faust and Jordan shared their very own photos from her big night, and their comment sections were crammed with people questioning how she could already be a highschool freshman.
Faust and her only daughter share an in depth bond. In 2021, she spoke to ESSENCE about protecting her teen as she reached an age where kids her age were already on social media. Currently he allows Eva to have the positioning, but just a few years ago it was a firm no.
“I had… oh god… I had to block so many people and delete so many comments because they were saying negative things about my child and I don’t want her reading things like that. It’s disgusting. Which adult talks about the child? It’s disgusting,” she said. “In my opinion, my daughter, as long as I have something to do with it, she won’t have Instagram. It’s too much. I want her to be a baby while she can be a baby. I tell her this all the time: “When you’re an adult, you’ll be an adult until you die.” You can’t get these years back, so enjoy this time. Be a kid, do kid things, because you will never, ever get the chance to do them again. Stay a child while you can, because once it’s gone, it’s gone.”
When it comes to co-parenting growing Eva with Stevie J, after some initial difficulties, everyone seems to be now in an important place. The former flames often spend time along with their daughter, and Faust told us that being open and honest with one another allowed them to forget concerning the drama.
“That was our communication. I was going to therapy, dealing with childhood issues that I had never dealt with, never confronted, or just buried, that I really needed to deal with. I’m a complete adult now, so it’s time to deal with my childhood problems because I don’t need to mention them anymore. Communication played a big role in this,” she said in the identical interview with ESSENCE. “So he wasn’t the only one to blame for our co-parenting relationship, I was too. The moment I became defensive, angry, and angry instead of listening, even though he might be talking crazy, I could turn the conversation around. That’s something I’ve learned.”
Time sure flies and it looks prefer it heals too! We love the wonderful space where Faust and Jordan are and how beautifully Ms. Eva is growing. Kudos to mom and dad.
