50 Cent’s Sons: Inside The Estranged Feud, Sole Custody Battle, And Billion-Dollar Legacy Of Marquise And Sire Jackson

As of December 2025, the family life of hip-hop mogul Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson remains as complex and headline-grabbing as his business empire. The narrative of his two sons, Marquise Jackson and Sire Jackson, is a study in stark contrasts: one a long-estranged son locked in a bitter, decade-long public feud, and the other a young heir for whom the rap icon is actively "building an empire." This deep dive explores the current, up-to-the-minute status of both relationships, revealing the explosive legal battles, social media drama, and the dramatic fallout from the Sean "Diddy" Combs scandal that has placed 50 Cent back in the center of the celebrity gossip universe. The ongoing saga is fueled by continuous public jabs, particularly from the elder son, Marquise, and the recent, high-stakes legal maneuver by 50 Cent to gain sole custody of his younger son, Sire, over concerns related to his mother, Daphne Joy. The two young men represent two completely separate chapters of 50 Cent’s life, each with their own complicated path to navigating the world as a Jackson.

The Complete Biography of 50 Cent's Sons

Curtis Jackson has fathered two sons with two different women, resulting in two distinctly separate family dynamics. This is the complete profile of Marquise and Sire Jackson.

• Full Name: Marquise Jackson
• Date of Birth: October 13, 1996
• Current Age (Late 2025): 29
• Mother: Shaniqua Tompkins (50 Cent's ex-girlfriend)
• Relationship Status with 50 Cent: Estranged for over a decade.
• Career Focus: Aspiring rapper and actor, often releasing music under the shadow of his father’s fame.

• Full Name: Sire Jackson
• Date of Birth: September 1, 2012
• Current Age (Late 2025): 13
• Mother: Daphne Joy (Model and actress)
• Relationship Status with 50 Cent: Close and highly public.
• Career Focus: Child model, actor (debuting in the horror film *Skill House*), and named heir to 50 Cent’s business empire.

The lives of the two brothers are worlds apart. Marquise grew up at the center of a tumultuous public and legal battle between his parents, Shaniqua Tompkins and 50 Cent. Sire, by contrast, has been showered with public affection, lavish gifts, and career opportunities by his father, including a multi-million dollar modeling contract at a young age and a role in a major motion picture.

The Billion-Dollar Feud: Marquise Jackson and the "25 Cent" Controversy

The relationship between 50 Cent and his eldest son, Marquise Jackson, has been publicly hostile for over a decade. The feud began to escalate around 2008 following the rapper’s acrimonious split from Marquise’s mother, Shaniqua Tompkins, which involved a major lawsuit and allegations of abuse against the rapper. The core of the dispute often revolves around money and perceived abandonment. Marquise has publicly stated that the $6,700 a month in child support he received from his father was insufficient for his lifestyle, a comment that sparked the infamous "25 Cent" nickname. 50 Cent has repeatedly hit back, claiming he has fulfilled his financial obligations and that the strained relationship is a direct result of his ex-girlfriend’s influence.

Latest Jabs and Social Media Warfare (2025 Update)

The tension remains high, with the two trading fresh jabs as recently as June 2025. On Father’s Day, Marquise took to social media to call out his father, accusing the rapper of never acknowledging him on the holiday. 50 Cent’s response was swift and scathing, often using social media to mock Marquise’s aspirations and lifestyle. This public shaming has become a recurring theme, cementing the elder son’s role as the estranged figure in the Jackson family narrative.

Marquise has attempted to forge his own path in the music industry, releasing tracks that often reference his difficult relationship with his father, such as the single "Different." While he strives to emerge from his father's shadow, the constant public back-and-forth ensures that their personal drama remains a central focus of his career. The feud is a painful and highly public example of the complexities that come with a celebrity legacy.

The Custody Battle: Sire, Daphne Joy, and the Diddy Lawsuit Fallout

In a dramatic turn of events that has dominated entertainment news in 2025, 50 Cent is reportedly seeking sole custody of his youngest son, Sire Jackson, from his mother, Daphne Joy. This high-stakes legal move is directly linked to the explosive sexual harassment and assault lawsuit filed against Sean “Diddy” Combs by producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones in March 2024.

The Diddy Connection and Sole Custody Bid

The lawsuit against Diddy named Daphne Joy as one of several women who allegedly engaged in sex work and were compensated by the disgraced music mogul. Although Joy has publicly denied the allegations, 50 Cent has cited the claims as a primary reason for seeking full custody of Sire, arguing that the environment is unsafe or inappropriate for his 13-year-old son. 50 Cent, who has been one of Diddy's most vocal critics, has used the scandal to his advantage, both in his public commentary and in his legal strategy to protect his son. The rapper’s actions indicate a clear intention to remove Sire from any association with the unfolding controversy, positioning himself as the sole stable parent. The legal proceedings highlight the severity of the allegations and the extreme measures 50 Cent is willing to take to ensure his youngest son is shielded from the public fallout.

Sire Jackson’s Ascent: Heir to the Empire

In stark contrast to his relationship with Marquise, 50 Cent has publicly declared his intention to leave his growing entertainment and business empire to Sire. The rapper has often referred to Sire as the "heir" to his fortune, which includes his influential television production company, G-Unit Film & Television, responsible for hit shows like *Power* and *BMF*. Sire’s career is already on a fast track. He has been a successful child model and, recently, was cast in his first acting role in the horror film *Skill House*. 50 Cent’s heavy involvement in Sire’s life, both personally and professionally, underscores his commitment to providing a clear, successful path for his youngest son, a path that is intentionally and dramatically different from the one Marquise has been forced to navigate. The ongoing legal battle for sole custody of Sire only further solidifies the rapper's public commitment to this legacy.
