After The Game unveiled pics of his newborn son, Blaze Taylor, Evelyn Lozada wasted no time confirming she’s the baby boy’s grandma. If you needed a recap, folks spent the summer speculating that The Game was the father of Shaniece Hairston’s baby, but neither of them set the record straight. Now, Evelyn has put the rumors to rest, confirming that The Game and Shaniece have welcomed their first child together.
Right after The Game posted a pic of Blaze on Friday, Dec. 5, Evelyn Lozada couldn’t help but react to the cuteness. The ‘Basketball Wives’ star shared the rapper’s post on her Instagram, showing Blaze Taylor rocking a cream printed onesie and flashing his gorgeous blue eyes. In her caption, Lozada gushed about how excited she is to be Blaze’s grandma, saying she feels beyond blessed.
“This little blue-eyed angel made me a grandma, and I’m forever grateful! 🥹❤️You’ve brought so much joy into my life that words can’t even explain. I love you more than anything, Blaze Taylor! 🍼✨ #GrandmaLove #ForeverGrateful #BlazeTaylor” Evelyn wrote.
The internet quickly chimed in with reactions to Evelyn Lozada’s lil’ reveal about Shaniece and The Game’s baby in The Shade Room’s comment section. See what they had to say below.
Instagram user @slimbarbiestar wrote, “Seems like they had a group meeting to discuss the hard launch. Baby is super cute tho.”
Instagram user @miggydaniels wrote, “It’s okay when a man has a baby with a younger woman but yall dragged Draya for loving her life?????!”
While Instagram user @_dej wrote, “She didn’t have to confirm anything. We knew.”
Then Instagram user @cupcakeaka9 wrote, “The Game is 45…. Evelyn is 48….. yo daddy the same age as your grandma 😩😩😩”
Another Instagram user @therealeshab wrote, “We read and we don’t judge 👏🏾”
Lastly, Instagram user @hashimthadream wrote, “’The Ghetto’ aside, where’d this lil man get these BLUE EYES from?”
Evelyn Lozada celebrated Blaze Taylor’s arrival while Shaniece Hairston seemingly hinted at her romance with The Game. After The Game shared baby Blaze’s pics, Shaniece posted a cozy photo with him on her IG Story. She kept it captionless, but the vibe was clear — she sat on his lap while he smiled with a beer in hand. They both rocked matching black fits, with Shaniece in a lace dress and Game in a suit and tie.
Rumors about Shaniece and Game expecting a child started this summer after Shaniece posted her baby bump photos in June and Game confirmed he was expecting another child during an August podcast interview. Despite speculation, the two initially made their first public link-up in December 2023, while leaving Nobu in Malibu, California. Blaze marks The Game’s fourth child, as he shares three kids — two boys and a girl — from two previous relationships.
