Mary J Blige children: Does Power star Mary J Blige have kids?

Power Book II: Ghost: A look at the dramatic finale

Mary J Blige is best known as an R’n’B singer but has dabbled in acting for years. She now plays a key role in Power Book II: Ghost as Monet Tejada who supplies Tariq St Patrick (played by Michael Rainey Jr) with drugs to sell on his college campus. Blige’s character Monet doesn’t exactly have the best relationship with her own children though in the Starz drama.

WARNING: This article contains spoilers from Power Book 2. 

Monet is the mum of three grown-up children in Power Book II: Cane (Woody McClain), Dru (Lovelle Adams-Gray) and Diana Tejada (LaToya Tonodeo).

For the most part, you wouldn’t realise either Cane or Dru are Monet’s sons as they are often seen doing her dirty work.

She does try and give daughter Diana some advice about how to control men but this is also for her own gain.

Monet wants to keep an eye on Tariq and as Diana has feelings for him, she can and tries to exploit this connection.

Does Mary J Blige have children?

 Blige is an international singer-songwriter who has had a countless number of hits since the 1990s.

These have included I’m Goin’ Down, Family Affair, Be Without You and Just Fine just to name a few.

She has also had a plethora of awards as a result such as the Grammy Award for Best R’n’B Album in 2007, the Independent Spirit Robert Altman Award in 2018 and the BET Lifetime Achievement Award in 2019.

So in terms of her music career, Blige has had plenty of successes but when it comes to her personal life, the journey hasn’t been so easy.

Blige doesn’t have any children of her own from any of her previous relationships.

She was married to singer Kendu Isaacs for 15 years from 2003 and was a step-mother to his three children.

Blige was a step-mother to Briana, Jordan and Nas Isaacs throughout this time until her marriage came to an end in 2018.

The Power star was the one to file for divorce and cited irreconcilable differences as a reason for their break-up.

Power Book 2: Joseph Sikora teases Tommy could kill Monet – here’s why [EXPLAINER]

Blige is expected to return to Power Book II for season two after it was renewed at the end of last year.

So far, no confirmation has been given in terms of a release date for this new series.

But it could be possible the spin-off drama will be out later this year, perhaps as early as September.

When the series does return, there could be a new, stronger bond between Monet and Tariq.

In the Power Book II season one finale, Tommy Egan (Joseph Sikora) was ready to pull the trigger on Tariq.

He had enough of his meddling and was lashing out at the youngster since he wasn’t able to kill Tasha St Patrick (Naturi Naughton).

Thankfully, Monet showed up just in time and pulled a gun on Tommy, telling him to back up away from Tariq.

Does this mean Monet now trusts Tariq and how will this affect their future alliance?

Power Book 2 is available to watch on Starzplay via Amazon Prime in the UK.
