Jazmine Sullivan is reflecting on a heart-rending year.
In a personal message marking her 38th birthday shared to social media, the Grammy-winning singer noted she is still mourning the death of her mother Pamela Sullivan—who died in June 2023—and the loss of her son after she suffered a miscarriage.
“Whew…thank yall for ur birthday wishes,” the “Pick Up Your Feelings” singer wrote on her Instagram Story April 10. “Leading up to my birthday has been incredibly hard as I’ve been thinking abt my mother and missing her more than words can say.”
“Also, I realized I woulda been holding my 2 month old son that I never got to meet,” she continued. “So needless to say I’ve been down bad.”
Jazmine went on to note that she, however, has been able to find a little happiness amid all her grief.
“Yesterday I had a massage that helped to release some of the deep pain I’ve been holding in for a while,” she wrote. “So I’m grateful for that. I’m also grateful that so many of you think of me and take the time to write! It’s all so beautiful. Please continue to pray for me as I heal from life’s ass whooping.”
