Ciara Changes Son’s Last Name To “Wilson” … And Future Responds With A Shady “IDGAF”!
Ciara has made a bold — but not entirely surprising — move when it comes to her son’s name. Media Take Out has learned that the singer legally changed the last name of her 11-year-old son with rapper Future from Future Zahir Wilburn to Future Wilson — a clear nod to her husband, NFL star Russell Wilson, who has helped raise the boy since he was a toddler.
From Future Wilburn To Future Wilson
The name change reportedly took place several years ago, but it only came to light this week when Russell himself referred to the child as “Future Wilson” in a heartfelt public tribute.
Russell has long been praised as a devoted stepfather, often seen attending school events, coaching sports, and embracing Future like one of his own. Fans have consistently applauded the way he stepped in and provided the stability that Ciara’s son needed.
“This just solidifies what we’ve all seen for years,” one insider said. “Russell has been raising that boy. Period.”
Future’s Response
But what about the biological father, rapper Future? Well, the self-proclaimed “toxic king” took to social media yesterday to make his feelings known … in the most Future way possible.
First he posted, “Congratulations.” Hours later, he followed it up with a blunt “idgaf.”
Fans immediately interpreted the message as Future’s way of brushing off the situation while still throwing a little shade. One person on Twitter wrote: “This man really said congrats then idgaf like he didn’t just get erased off his own son’s name.”
The History Of Drama
Ciara and Future’s co-parenting relationship has been rocky ever since their high-profile breakup back in 2014. Ciara accused Future of being an absent father, while Future often accused Ciara of using their son to control him.
Over the years, Ciara’s marriage to Russell Wilson became the ultimate clapback. The NFL quarterback embraced her son wholeheartedly, quickly becoming the father figure that many felt Future failed to be.
Now, with the official name change, it looks like Ciara and Russell are publicly cementing the blended family they’ve built together.
Fans React Online
As expected, the internet wasted no time weighing in.
“Ciara won. She got the husband, the family, the stability … Future just has excuses,” one commenter wrote.
Another added: “Future said idgaf but you KNOW he cares. That’s his brand — pretend you don’t care while the whole world watches.”
Meanwhile, Ciara and Russell’s fans flooded their socials with love, praising the Wilsons for giving Future Jr. a stable home environment.
What’s Next?
With Future seemingly brushing it off and Ciara standing firm in her choice, the name change looks here to stay. Russell and Ciara continue to present a picture-perfect family unit, while the rapper is left looking like the outsider in his own son’s life.
One thing’s certain: Ciara just put the final stamp on her “prayer” — and Future can either deal with it or keep pretending he doesn’t care.
