She shared, “The most important and biggest thing I’ve ever done is becoming a mom, and it has brought so much beauty into my life.” Jackson, 58, spoke about her 7-year-old son during an interview with The Guardian on Saturday, September 21.
I wanted three kids, but then I thought, ‘I should stop, that’s probably all I can manage.’ You have to give everything to being a parent. Sure, you still work, but your kids come first now. Your whole life changes, and I wouldn’t give it up for anything.
Jackson first appeared on TV in 1975 on The Carol Burnett Show, singing a duet with her brother Randy. She was around the same age then as her son Eissa is now, but Jackson is clear that Eissa’s childhood will be very different from hers.
Jackson wants her son Eissa to fully enjoy his childhood because you only get one chance at it. She believes it’s important for him to make the most of every moment before he grows up.
In August 2019, she shared that she hasn’t used a nanny since Eissa was born in 2017. She admitted that being a working mom is tough, but she prefers to take care of him herself. While someone watches him when she’s busy, she emphasizes that it’s just her and her baby most of the time.
In her interview with The Guardian, Jackson talked about how her parents, Joe and La Toya, influenced how she raises her son. She said there are things she wishes they had done differently, which inspire her to approach parenting in a new way. Although she didn’t like some of their rules as a kid, she’s grateful for them now because they helped keep her grounded.
Janet Jackson had her son Eissa in January 2017 with her husband Wissam Al Mana, but they split up just three months after he was born. They had gotten married in 2012, but during their relationship, Janet reportedly felt isolated from her family and friends, almost like a prisoner.
More than a year after her breakup, Jnet Jackson talked about being a mom and her bond with her son in an interview with Billboard.
Every day and night, holding him brings me peace and joy. In those moments, everything feels perfect.”
