Jennifer Hudson had an emotional moment on her talk show after her son, David Jr., surprised her live on stage ahead of Mother’s Day.
The 16-year-old walked out carrying flowers and a cake during Thursday’s episode of The Jennifer Hudson Show, catching the singer and actress completely off guard. The moment instantly left Hudson in tears.
After hugging her son tightly, the visibly emotional host turned to the audience and said, “Y’all, this is my baby.”
Still wiping away tears, the 44-year-old joked that her production team had managed to surprise her once again.
David Jr. then revealed the cake carried special meaning for their family. According to him, it was made using Hudson’s late mother’s recipe, something he knows means a lot to her.
“I made it for Mother’s Day,” he shared warmly. “I know it’s special to you.”
That was enough to make the moment even more emotional for Hudson, who explained that her mother used to bake the same pound cake for family celebrations. She added that her son has continued the tradition over the years for birthdays, Mother’s Day and other important occasions.
“For Mother’s Day, birthdays, all special occasions, he always makes it for me,” she said proudly before thanking him again.
Hudson shares David Jr. with former fiancé David Otunga. The pair began dating in 2007 and got engaged less than a year later. Their son was born in 2009.
The former couple eventually separated in 2017, with their custody agreement finalized two years later following a highly publicized legal battle.
These days, Hudson is in a relationship with Common, who publicly confirmed their romance during an appearance on her show in early 2024.
