Fantasia Barrino shared a picture of her young son who seems to have gotten taller. He was in the midst of two of his cousins, and they all looked excited to be spending time together.
Fantasia Barrino is a mother of two. Her first child is a girl, Zion Quari, whom she gave birth to during her teenage years. The second is her only son, Dallas Xavier Barrino, whom she shares with Antwaun Cook, a former lover.

Her recently shared image showed all three boys making goofy faces at the camera. They stood in order of height, starting from the shortest to the tallest.
The first cousin had a black ninja-themed shirt on, with brown shorts, while the second boy rocked a blue two-piece outfit. Dallas wore a gray short-sleeved shirt and blue shorts with a backpack. The caption read: "Cousins."
Barrino announced Dallas' birth shortly after delivery in December 2011. Barrino shared her excitement via her representative who explained that she felt entirely blessed to have a son and further reached out to fans in appreciation.
A year before she welcomed her son, the "American Idol" alum was entangled in a love triangle. She was criticized over her relationship with Cook who was a married man.
The mother of two was confirmed to be a grandmother at age 32 in 2016.
Initially, she claimed that she was unaware of his status as a married man. Cook's wife still filed for child custody following the affair between her husband and the singer.
Barrino later found love after hitting a few road bumps in her life's journey which caused her to nearly take her life. She became romantically involved with a successful businessman — Taylor Kendall.
The pair is currently married and the mother of two was confirmed to be a grandmother at age 32 in 2016. This happened after her husband's son, Treyshaun, welcomed a child with his girlfriend, Kayla.
The singer later dropped out of high school at age 14 and became pregnant at 17. By the time her daughter became 2, they lived on food stamps, but her big break came in at the right time, as she won in the singing competition, "American Idol," as a young adult.
