Keke Wyatt’s Son Accuses singerโ of Exploiting โคHis cancer Battle for Clout
R&B singer Keke Wyatt is facing accusations from her son, โRahjahโ Wyatt, who alleges she exploited his cancer diagnosis for personal gain. in a recently surfaced YouTube video, Rahjah claims hisโ mother leveraged his illnessโข to attractโข attention, referring to the situation as “karma.” The allegations come years after Wyatt publicly sharedโ Rahjah’s battle โwith cancer, soliciting support from fans and documenting portions of his treatment.
The dispute centers on wyatt’sโ public โdiscussion of Rahjah’s leukemia diagnosis inโ 2017, including an emotional Instagram video where sheโ announced she would shave her โhead in solidarity with her son as he lost his hairโฃ during chemotherapy. While Wyatt framed these actions as โคexpressions of maternal support,โ Rahjah now contends they were motivated by a desire forโ publicity. The situation highlights a complex dynamic between a public โขfigure parentโ and a child navigating a deeply personal health crisis, raisingโ questions aboutโ privacy, consent, and the ethicsโ of sharingโ vulnerable experiences for public consumption.
Inโ 2017,Wyatt revealed her son’s cancer prognosis in an emotional Instagram video,asking โคfans forโค prayers โคas she prepared to shaveโ her โhead inโฃ solidarity.โ “Haven’t really said too โฃmuch about โขmy โpersonal life, โbut my โchild has been fighting cancer and lost โขall of their hair that they โขloved. It hurts me so bad,”โ she wrote at the โฃtime.โ “Iโ need a complete healing for โคmy baby.” โฃHer โmother, brother, andโฃ aunt also shaved their heads in support.
A year later,the โ R&B Divas: Atlanta star shared that Rahjah had officially โคbeaten cancer. “NO MORE CANCER,” she captioned โคa celebratory YouTube video,where she and Rahjah discussed his diagnosis and treatmentโ journey.
Though, Rahjah now recalls noticing โฃthe first signs of his illness โduring โa trip to an amusement โคpark, when he struggled to walk.He soon began losing โคweight at a concerning rate.”Because I was dying! I was literally dying, and we didn’t know,” Rahjah stated โin the recent video.
Followingโข bloodwork, Wyatt recalled receiving the devastating phone call fromโข his โขdoctor confirming her worst fear.”I said, ‘What is it? Like, โcancer or something?’ And she said, ‘Yes.’ Honey, โขmy butthole fell on the floor. My throat hit my butt and my butt hit the โfloor. I couldn’t believe it,” she โsaid.When doctors confirmedโฃ it was leukemia, the singerโฃ admitted her teethโ began โฃchattering inโ shock.
Wyatt also remembered the terrifying seizures Rahjah suffered while inโ the hospital. “Whenever somethingโ happens with you, theโ whole hospital popsโ up at your door,” she told her โson. โฃ”Everybody had something to โdo on โyou. That was theโฃ scariest crap I had ever been thruโ in my โlife. If there wasโ ever a โขtime in my life whereโข I would lose my mind, that would beโค the day.”
The recently surfaced video features Rahjah directly addressing the allegations of exploitation, prompting a renewed examinationโข of Wyatt’s public portrayal of his โคcancer โjourney. The video is currently โavailable onโ YouTube.
