The other four children's mothers have not been publicly identified.
In a 2017 interview with Shade 45, Moneybagg Yo revealed he had seven children with four women at that time and said he had fathered two or three by the time he was in 12th grade. He has since added daughter Spring.
Moneybagg Yo's Baby Mothers
Renee Echelon is a social media influencer and entrepreneur who runs My Size Fashion Boutique. She is mother to Demario and O'Marrion. Chyna Santana, whose real name is Shana Ward, was a model and mother to two of the rapper's children; she died in April 2022. Moneybagg Yo spoke about her death on Angie Martinez's IRL podcast in 2023, saying, 'I instantly broke down, I couldn't believe it.' He revealed she was killed by someone she was with, and the three children they shared now live with him full-time.
Whitney White is an Instagram star and mother of two of his children. The mother of his youngest, Spring, goes by @itsonly10k on Instagram and is CEO of Trap Gurlz. The rapper has described his relationships with his baby mothers as positive, telling The FADER in 2018, 'Cool with all of them. For me to have four baby mamas...they’re really a blessing.'
Does Moneybagg Yo Have Kids with Ari Fletcher?
No. Moneybagg Yo has been in an on-and-off relationship with influencer Ari Fletcher since 2019, but they do not share children. Ari has a son, Yosohn, with rapper G Herbo. In 2025, Moneybagg described himself and Ari as 'locked in' and said they had been together for six years.
Fatherhood and Privacy
Moneybagg Yo rarely discusses his children publicly. In a 2018 interview with The FADER, he explained, 'I don’t really like to speak on ’em. I don’t want to get them crossed up in my life. I want their life to be a whole different set-up.' Despite his privacy, he has a strong bond with his kids. In June 2022, his mother and children surprised him with a Father's Day billboard in Memphis listing all their names.
In a 2021 interview with XXL Magazine, Moneybagg shared his hopes for his children: 'I just want them to keep going, stay focused. I’m doing this for them to do other stuff. Whatever it is, it is what it is. If they grow up and they get to that stage, they making their own decisions, they want to do it. I’m just gonna stand by.'
Following Chyna Santana's death, Moneybagg took on full-time custody of their children and admitted, 'Single parenting hard.' The experience deepened his respect for mothers.
