Mia Jaye spent her Saturday (July 27) paying respects to a man she once shared her life and built a family with. She attended a memorial event for the late Young Dolph, who would’ve been celebrating his 39th birthday today.
In addition to the in-person gathering, she posted a note about losing the Memphis icon and father of her kids. As previously reported, Dolph was gunned down in November 2021 at a cookie store he favored in Memphis. An autopsy later revealed that 22 bullets struck the ‘Preach’ rapper during the shooting.
Atlanta’s Westside Cultural Arts Center hosted a ‘Spirit Of Dolph Heavenly Birthday Celebration’ and Mia Jaye came through. She wore a white blouse, and blue pants in photos with other attendees and artwork of her late fiancé.
Meanwhile, on IG, she shared four photos in a carousel post. The first was a throwback of her and Dolph, while the second was a video of the couple kicking it. The third was a video of Dolph enjoying a waterslide with their children, and the last was a family group photo–one of the last taken by the late father of two.
In her caption, she thanked Young Dolph for their life together and the lessons he imparted to her before departing.
“Today I will live in gratitude, celebrating & cherishing every single memory we created in life together… thank you for every lesson you taught us, sacrifice you made for us and for the beautiful spirit you graced the world with… May we continue to feel your presence through your absence… and may our eternal love reach you where your spirit resides… Happy Heavenly Birthday my love…”
In May, Mia took to the same platform to call out the Memphis justice system. She pointed to her frustration with delays in the trial for the men charged in relation to Dolph’s murder. The court proceeding was pushed from June to September, marking the second delay in the trial.
