Adrienne Bailon's Son Ever James Makes Magazine Cover Debut: 'Truly So Special'

Proud mom Adrienne Bailon is showcasing her six-month-old son, Ever James, in the sweetest way!

The former Cheetah Girls member and husband, Israel Houghton welcomed their baby boy last year via surrogacy. And since then, the proud mom has flaunted her son at every opportunity.

Recently the reality star took it to the next level, with her son making his magazine cover debut at such a young age.

The mom of one was over the moon for her son’s magazine cover debut on Harpers Bazaar. She took to Instagram to share the big news with her fans, adding photos from the shoot. Bailon first shared a couple of pictures from the publication showing her and her son bonding. 

In the post’s caption, Bailon wrote, “HARPERS BAZAAR 🖤 Me & my baby boy @everjames for @bazaarvietnam - my favorite photos EVER! This was truly so special… can’t wait to share our cover! Besos Xx.” Shortly after this post, the Tv host uploaded another carousel of photos from the photoshoot, and this time, she included the magazine’s cover photo.

The cover photo showed the mother and son in close contact. Bailon looked breathtaking in a shimmering short dress as she sat near a waterside. Her curly hair had a wet look and was styled effortlessly, giving it a natural look. In line with the natural look, Bailon’s makeup was subtle, highlighting her natural beauty.

Her stunning appearance was accessorized with several gold bracelets and then a noticeable gold necklace with her son’s first name on it.  Although the reality star looked breathtaking in the shot, what was more admirable was her adoration for her baby boy. The 39-year-old held her boy, who was fast asleep, close to her bosom, capturing the sweet bond between the duo.

“Ever’s Mami,” Bailon captioned the captivating post before crediting the creative team in charge of the shoot. In other images from the photo shoot, "The Real" alum rocked many other gorgeous ensembles including a black sheer robe with a lengthy train, a mid-length leather dress, and a black pantsuit outfit.

Several fans and celebrities couldn’t help but gush about how adorable the images were. A fan wrote, “wow this is so beautiful 😍 congratulations on the cover @adriennebailon. Tv host Jeannie Mai commented, “You were made for Ever... and Ever for you.” Khloe Kardashian remarked, “Wow!!! Beyond a dream.”

In the magazine issue, the ENews! host discussed her career and her motherhood journey so far. Talking about her motherhood journey since she welcomed her baby, Bailon said, “I am completely blown away… It was a really long journey to becoming a mother after six years of struggling with fertility issues.” 

She further gushed about her boy being the cutest. She said, “Ever is a very chill baby, he is the sweetest boy. He like his mom…loves to sleep… Motherhood isn’t about me. There’s just something so beautiful about watching him experience the world for the first time.”

James’ magazine debut comes a few days after his six-month-old birthday, which his parents went all out. Per The Blast, the Emmy-winning Tv Host and the multiple Grammy winner threw an NFL- themed party for their cute toddler.

The gospel singer showed off moments from the celebration on his Instagram. From the pictures he updated, the celebrant was dressed in a blue onesie with a football drawing on its front and the words, “it’s my 1/2 birthday” written on it. A look-alike NFL sock and cap were added to his outfit, making him look like an NFL Star. 

The birthday boy was surrounded by his family, who shared in the celebration too. Bailon and Houghton looked delighted in their outfit, which aligned with the theme. The Tv host rocked a blue jersey with black leggings while the doting father dressed in a black costume with a green hat. 

“There’s nothing we love more than celebrating the sweetest boy in the whole world. @everiames 🏈🤍 Ever’s Halftime Birthday!!” Houghton captioned the upload, which has received over 10,000 likes and thousands of comments. “The Real” alum led the comment section, writing, “And of course, we love a theme! 🏈 EVER’S HALFTIME! I can’t believe he’s 6 months already 😥.”
