Ginuwine is a proud father of nine kids!
The singer, who rose to R&B fame in the late ā90s, shares four children with his ex-wife SolĆ©. The pair began dating in 1999 and later tied the knot in 2003, per Essence. Their blended family included daughters Story Asaundra and Dream Sarae, as well as SolĆ©ās daughters from a previous relationship, Deājan and Cypress. Ginuwine still plays an active role in Deājan and Cypressā lives, despite his divorce from SolĆ© in 2015.
Deājan, Cypress, Story and Dream are all very close. For Halloween 2022, Ginuwine shared a photo of the girls dressed up as the four Hogwarts houses from the Harry Potter franchise, writing ādad lifeā in the caption.
In addition to his four children with SolĆ©, Ginuwine has five kids from other relationships. The āIn Those Jeansā singer keeps his children out of the public eye, aside from occasional birthday shoutouts on social media.
Hereās everything to know about Ginuwineās nine children.

During their 12-year marriage, Ginuwine and SolƩ welcomed two kids. Their first daughter, Story Asaundra, was born on March 28, 2001, followed by Dream Sarae some time later.
Following their 2015 divorce, SolƩ married Public Enemy band member Professor Griff in 2017. While at first the two had to adjust to a new relationship, Ginuwine has maintained a friendship with the lecturer, which he candidly opened up about during a December 2024 episode of the Drink Champs podcast.
āAs an example, as a parent, as a man, if you have kids, you want to extend that to your kids,ā he said. āAs grown men, we have to extend that same courtesy to our kids and say, āListen, everything always isnāt going to be perfect or whatever. You might get divorced, you might go through whatever, but this is how you do after that. This is how you make it right. This is the example you set for your kids.ā Thatās what I do."
Of his nine children, daughters Story and Dream make the most cameos on the singerās Instagram. In May 2023, Ginuwine shared a selfie on Instagram of the father-daughter trio at Disney World. āHad fun with my two shawtys at Disney world this week love yāall to life,ā he wrote.
He also has two stepdaughters

In 2024, the two posed for photos alongside Ginuwine. "Great pics with my daughters love them always supporting @dejan.nicole @cypresssoleil ā¤ļø," he wrote in the caption.
