What Is Vada Wamwene Mescudi’s Age?
Vada Wamwene Mescudi is 14 years old. She was born on March 26, 2010, and this means she is an Aries. Her exact birthplace in the United States is not known but there is no doubt that she is an American citizen.
Unlike the straightforward fact that she is an American citizen, her ethnic heritage is a bit more complex. While she predominantly has an African American heritage through her father and the majority of his family members, Vada’s paternal grandfather has a bit of Latino blood running through his veins due to his Mexican ancestry.
On the flip side, Vada’s birth mother comes from a predominantly white ethnic background.
Vada Wamwene Mescudi’s Mother Keeps A Low Profile
Kid Cudi’s baby mama, the one responsible for bringing Vada into this world, is a woman named Jacqueline Munyasya. Before she met Veda’s father, not much was known about her except for the very visible fact that she is white and even while they were together, she still found a way to keep virtually every basic detail of her existence away from the media and the public.
Some sources have claimed that she is only a few years younger than her daughter’s father. If those sources are to be believed, that would place Jacqueline in the mid to late 30s age range, subject to verification of course.
After she broke up with Kid Cudi, Jacqueline went back to living her life away from the media and as a result, there isn’t enough information to ascertain where she is now or what she currently does for a living.
We are aware, however, that even though they are no longer together, Jacqueline Munyasya and Kid Cudi are committed to the well-being of the daughter they made together.
Kid Cudi Does Not Have Custody Of His Daughter
No one can deny the existence of the bond Kid Cudi shares with his daughter. But considering the amount of time they spend in each other’s company, it might come as a surprise to quite a number of people when they learn that Kid Cudi does not have primary custody of the daughter he practically fixed his life to be with. That privilege belongs to Vada’s mother Jacqueline.
Before they parted ways, Kid Cudi and Jacqueline were in the news a lot as they fought over who would keep their daughter, Vada. The custody battle ensued when Jacqueline vehemently insisted that the rapper would not be a part of their daughter’s life if he persisted in his refusal to get his acts together.
Admittedly, at the time, the rapper was a mess and was highly unfit to be anyone’s father. He regularly abused drugs as a way to deal with the mental issues he had suffered since childhood. All his shortcomings were laid bare to the judge who presided over their case and Luckily for Jacqueline, she won. Since then, Veda, who was only a few years old then, has lived with her.
The low point for the rapper came in 2016 when he was forced to check himself into a mental health institution after contemplating suicide. From then on, he seems to have found a way to become the kind of father Jacqueline had always wanted for their daughter. His drug abuse problem is long behind him and he has made very concerted efforts to be even closer to his only daughter who is slowly, but surely heading into her teen years.
Several accounts of Kid’s journey toward being a decent father include the fact that he bought a house in Chicago just to be close to his daughter. His relationship with Vada’s mother is now reportedly quite cordial as opposed to the days when they were at each other’s throats about who should become Vada’s primary caregiver.
Vada Is Known To The Media And The Public
Vada Wamwene Mescudi knows what it’s like to be in the limelight and it would seem that she is a natural. She got her first taste of it when her father introduced her to his fans during a concert in his hometown, Cleveland, Ohio. Before then, Vada who had just turned 10 at the time, had lived most of her life being diligently raised by her mother and maternal grandmother.
Fans are also quite aware that the young celebrity kid seems to have picked up her father’s musical abilities during those times she spent away from the spotlight. It is an aspect of her life that has drawn her even closer to her father. However, despite her recent venture into the world of celebrities, Vada is still quite put off when fans intrude into the moments she wishes to share with her father alone, an information that Kid Cudi once artfully shared with his fans and followers.
Aside from being Kid Cudi’s daughter, there are other aspects of Vada’s life that the public is unaware of, and those bits involve her formal education background. At the moment, we do not know the school Vada attends or what her life is like away from the cameras. A social media handle would have gone a long way in providing that insight but it would appear that Vada Wamwene is not on any of the recognized social media platforms.
