‘You left us broken’
Amid the emotional occasion, Jayden’s alleged baby mama, Jody Solomons, shared a deeply personal message about losing him and raising their son without him.
“Jayden, losing you has left a pain I don’t think I’ll ever be able to put into words,” she wrote.
She reflected on how difficult it has been knowing that Jayden will not be there to witness his children growing up.
“Jayden, losing you has left a pain I don’t think I’ll ever be able to put into words. The hardest part is watching Allaia and Jude grow without you here to see it, not being able to hear their little voices, watch their personalities grow, or see all the little things I know you would have loved. I wish you were here for all of it. You left us broken,” she said.
Her words captured the lasting impact of Jayden’s death on his family, particularly as his children continue to grow without their father.
