JR has described his queen and mother of his child  Tshepi Vundla as "inspirational and amazing". 

Taking to Instagram earlier this week JR revealed that Tshepi and his son were headed to school, and that it was a proud moment for him. 

"My two favorite people in the entire world are going to school this week. This might mean very little to some of you but it really means everything to me."  

JR described Tshepi as an inspiration not only to him but to other young women around her. 

"This move is such an inspirational one to me and to more women like yourself. It’s such a hard thing to do, but the decision is one that I myself find very hard to do, you’re such an amazing mother, dedicated and an angel with a big heart and an inspiration to me and I love you more everyday for the sacrifices you continuously make, I’m actually surprised at how you do it." 

The musician then opened up about fatherhood being the most fulfilling time in his life. 

"You are my most proudest achievement, being a father to you is the most rewarding gift God could have given me," JR said about his son.

My two favorite people in the entire world are going to school this week. This might mean very little to some of you but it really means EVERYTHING to me, and let me tell you why. I regard myself to be the most blessed man for 2 specific reasons. 1. The gorgeous mother of my son and the keeper of my heart, this move is such an inspirational one to me and to more women like yourself. It’s such a hard thing to do, but the decision is one that I myself find very hard to do, you’re such an amazing mother, dedicated and an angel with a big heart and an inspiration to me and I love you more everyday for the sacrifices you continuously make, I’m actually surprised at how you do it. 2nd is my baby boy, seeing you grow has been the most fulfilling time of my life and I look forward to many more, thinking that this is you FIRST day at school makes me wanna cry because all I wanna do is homeschool you so I can be with you every minute of the day. You are my most proudest achievement, being a father to you is the most rewarding gift God could have given me. Essentially I am probably the PROUDEST and LUCKIEST man alive and I never take Gods favour and grace for granted because he’s blessed me with with not only one life but 3, that I should love, protect, honour and respect. Go out there the two of you, show the world that humility and honour is what we live by, and love is what we choose. I love you both inexplicably ❤️ *now let me go cry in the bathroom*
