Sophie Brussaux is having a moment.
It’s not clear if Sophie Brussaux wants to be having a moment, but she doesn’t have much say in the matter.
The previously-unknown 28-year old has been outed as the mother of Drake’s son, forcing a curious celebrity gossip world to fire up the Google machine in order to learn all it possibly can about Brussaux.
But we’re here to save you all that trouble.
Simply scroll down right now and gather up all the information there is to know about Ms. Sophie Brussaux…
Why Has Brussaux Been Forced Out of Hiding?
She can thank Pusha T for making her sort of famous, as the rapper went after Drake (HARD!) on his single “The Story of Adidon,” telling the world that his rival was hiding a young son.
Pusha Goes There
“A baby’s involved, it’s deeper than rap. We talking character, let me keep with the facts,” Push says on this track, adding: “You are hiding a child let that boy come home. Deadbeat mother f-cker playing border patrol. Love that baby, respect that girl. Forget she’s a porn star, let her be your world.”
And Then Drake Confesses
On his new album, Drake comes out and talks about his son, Adonis, realizing he has no choice after Pusha called him out. “That sh-t is in stone, sealed and signed/She not my lover like Billie Jean, but the kid is mine,” Drake raps, about both his child and Sophie, his former lover.
Was Brussaux Drake’s Girlfriend?
Gosh, no, not based on Drake’s lyrics. Based on the following words, it sounds like the pair just got busy on two occasions: “[My mom] Sandi used to tell me all it takes is one time, and all it took was one time/Sh-t, we only met two times, two times,” says Drake on his album.
Okay. So Who IS Sophie Brussaux?
She is a French artist who formerly work in the world of adult entertainment. Quite the combination, right?!?
She Went Private, But She’s Now Back
Sophie attempted to keep a low profile at first, making her Instagram private for several months. But now that the baby news is confirmed, she’s opened it back up again, writing on her profile: “Mother of Adonis
When Did She Meet Drake?
In January of 2017, Brussaux was first spotted with the rapper, following his split from Jennifer Lopez. She claimed in May of that year that she three-and-a-half months pregnant with Drake’s child.
Cue the Alleged Cover-Up
Sophie hired two major New York City attorneys to begin the proceedings to prove paternity and seek child support, TMZ reported at the time. She also said she had text messages from Drake that asked her to get an abortion.
YIKES!
Sophie says this is a text message exchange she had with Drake around the time she told the star she was pregnant. He tells her to get it terminated AND implies that she purposely got pregnant just to extort him for money.
Wait… She Was a Porn Star?
Yup! Brussaux worked in this industry under the name Rosee Divine. That’s a photo of her above. (One of the more PG-rated photos of her from this time.)
And Now?
After leaving behind this naked career, Sophie took on a full-time gig as a painter. According to The Daily Mail., Sophie’s work is described as “a mix of surrealism and symbolism with influences of pop art.”
When Will We See Adonis?
Do not hold your breath. This is an exchange Sophie had with an irritating Instagram user shortly after Drake confirmed she was the mother of his son.
What Do We Know About Adonis?
He was born on October 11, 2017 and Drake has only met him one time ever, per the rapper himself: “I only met you one time, introduced you to Saint Nick/I think he musta brought you like 20 gifts/Your mother say you growin’ so fast that they don’t even really fit/But man, you know/I still had to get it for my boy though.”
Do Drake and Sophie Get Along?
Nope, not really. Not right now. “They said that in two weeks you’re supposed to come in town/Hopefully by the time you hear this/Me and your mother will have come around/Instead of always cuttin’ each other down,” raps Drake on his album, claiming he wants an amicable relationship with Sophie.
Maybe They Can Watch Game of Thrones Together
Sophie is apparently a fan… of this HBO epic and other sci-fi shows as well. So she clearly has good taste; in television if not in men.
