Tupac Shakur, one of the most influential and iconic figures in hip-hop, had a tumultuous love life. But there was one woman who was the love of his life, Kidada Jones.
Kidada Jones is an actress, model, and fashion designer. She is the daughter of music producer Quincy Jones and actress Peggy Lipton. Jones and Shakur first met in 1993 when she was working as a model and he was at the peak of his career. Jones was instantly smitten with Shakur, and the two began a relationship.
Shakur was so taken with Jones that he proposed to her after only a few months of dating. He told his mother, Afeni, at the time, “I love her. She’s going to be my wife, she’s having my children.”
The couple was planning to get married, but their plans were put on hold when Shakur was sentenced to prison for sexual assault. While Shakur was in prison, Jones visited him every week and wrote him letters. She was a source of comfort and strength for him during this difficult time.
After Shakur was released from prison, he and Jones moved in together in Calabasas, California. They were very much in love and were planning to get married. However, their plans were derailed when Shakur was shot and killed in 1996.
Jones was devastated by Shakur’s death. She was so grief-stricken that she was unable to attend his funeral. She eventually found solace in her work as a fashion designer and model.
To this day, Jones still remembers Shakur fondly. She has said in interviews that she believes he was the love of her life. She has also said that she still feels a connection to him and that she will never forget him.
Jones has also said that she believes Shakur’s spirit is still with her. She says that she often feels his presence when she is alone or when she is in a difficult situation.
