They were together for six years before getting married in 2004. They later welcomed Kasseem Dean Jr in December 2006. The couple was overjoyed by the birth as their first pregnancy had ended in a stillbirth in 2000. They, therefore, lavished a lot of love on their little boy.<\/p>\n<p>The hope was that the family would grow old together but this was not to be as a result of several issues including infidelity on the path of Swizz Beatz. The couple, therefore, separated around August 2007 and subsequently filed for divorce. As at the time that Kasseem Dean Jr\u2019s parents separated, he was barely a year old and his mom got primary custody of him.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_152538\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-152538\" style=\"width: 696px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-152538\" src=\"https:\/\/buzzsouthafrica.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/12\/Kasseem-Dean-Jr-4.jpg\" alt=\"Kasseem Dean Jr\" width=\"696\" height=\"463\" srcset=\"https:\/\/buzzsouthafrica.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/12\/Kasseem-Dean-Jr-4.jpg 696w, https:\/\/buzzsouthafrica.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/12\/Kasseem-Dean-Jr-4-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-152538\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kasseem Dean Jr with his mom in 2017 <a href=\"https:\/\/static01.nyt.com\/images\/2017\/12\/03\/nyregion\/03routine-1\/merlin_129429713_02c0d914-7af2-4c0e-9cbb-6b4facd4cea5-superJumbo.jpg\">Image Source<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>The Bad Blood between Swizz Beatz and Mashonda affected their Son While He Was Growing Up and He Started Acting Out in School<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>When Swizz Beatz and Mashonda Kasseem split in 2008, there were a lot of hurt feelings on both sides as Mashonda accused Beatz of cheating on her with his new lady love, Alicia Keys. As a result of this, there was a fractured relationship between the two. They bickered over child support <a href=\"https:\/\/singersroom.com\/content\/2009-05-18\/mashonda-and-swizz-beatz-go-at-it-over-child-support-payments\/\">payments<\/a> as well as the issue of alimony.
