Skai Jackson gave birth to a gangster rapper/gang member Yerkky’s baby earlier this year. Now Media Take Out learned that her new babys father is so violent that Skai’s mom had to get a temporary restraining order against him.
Yerkky, aka Deondre Burgin, gained media attention months earlier following a domestic violence incident where police labeled Skai as the aggressor. That incident was in mid August.
But Media take Out confirmed that a few days later, Skai’s mother rushed to court to get a temporary restraining order out on Yerkky. The exact details surrounding the restraining order are sealed in court, but Media take Out confirmed that the temporary restraining order was granted.
Skai’s mother, Kiya Cole, is one of the most respected women in Hollywood. She is a marketer and a manager, and she was the brains behind Skai Jackson’s amazing Disney career. It’s a shame that a woman of her stature has to be dragged into this mess.
Yerkky, who claims to be a member of the Bloods gang, has a had a history of run ins with the law. Just a few weeks ago, he was taken down for violating parole. He spent a few nights in jail, and then was released on bond.
Here’s video of his arrest:
