Quincy Jones Celebrates His Daughter in Heartfelt Final Instagram Post: Meet His 7 Remarkable Children

 

Quincy Jones shared a heartfelt message for his daughter in his last Instagram post: Meet his 7 children.


Quincy Jones expressed his love for his children right up until his passing.

 

In his final Instagram update shared on Saturday, just a day before he passed away, the iconic producer celebrated his daughter Martina’s 58th birthday. He wrote, “So proud to be yo papa!” alongside a touching photo of them together. “Big hug, I love you eternally.”

The accomplished Grammy-winning artist, known for producing Michael Jackson’s record-breaking “Thriller” and collaborating with stars like Frank Sinatra, passed away on Sunday at the age of 91, as confirmed by his publicist. Jones, who had three marriages, leaves behind seven children.

 

Jones’ first marriage was to actress Jeri Caldwell, during which they had a daughter named Jolie Jones Levine. Jolie has made a name for herself as a model, author, and singer, even performing with the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, according to her website. Quincy posted a nostalgic picture of them at the piano together when she was young last year on Instagram.

 

In 1963, with his second wife Carol Reynolds, he had another daughter named Rachel Jones who is now a veterinarian.

 

With his second wife, Ulla Andersson, Quincy had two more children: Martina Jones, a photographer, and Quincy Jones III, a music producer who follows in his father’s footsteps.

 

Quincy Jones and Rashida Jones: What’s their connection?

In 1974, Quincy married actress Peggy Lipton, and together they had two daughters: Kidada Jones and Rashida Jones. Kidada is known as a fashion designer, and Quincy referred to her as his “muse” in a March Instagram post.

 

Rashida Jones is an actress famous for her roles as Karen Filippelli on “The Office” and Ann Perkins on “Parks and Recreation.” She is in a relationship with Ezra Koenig, the lead singer of Vampire Weekend, and co-directed the documentary “Quincy,” which chronicled her father’s life, released on Netflix in 2018.

In an interview with YSL News in 2018, Rashida described the documentary as only a “starter pack,” emphasizing that her father has had “such a big life.”

 

“I just cannot believe all of this experience is contained in this one human being who just happens to be my dad,” she expressed.

 

Quincy noted in his interview with YSL News that the documentary was “very personal,” and he had to collaborate with someone he completely trusted for it. “This is beyond just trust,” he elaborated.

Earlier this year, speaking on the “SmartLess” podcast, Rashida revealed she didn’t aim to pursue a music career like her father. “My dad’s a musical genius,” she remarked. “Trying to follow in those footsteps is the last thing I want to do. But I have a deep love for music, and I just don’t ever feel like I’m good enough to do it. I’ll never be good enough to do it.”

 

Quincy’s youngest child is Kenya Kinski-Jones, a 31-year-old model born in 1993 to actress Nastassja Kinski. On her father’s birthday in 2020, Kenya shared a heartfelt message on Instagram, speaking warmly about Quincy.

 

referred to her as the “number one buddy & sunshine of love.”

 

“You have filled my heart with endless gratitude,” she expressed at that moment. “From my earliest memories, you have always been the uplifting voice in my life.  You are so funny, cheerful, wise, and genuine, with a spirit of youth that never diminishes. Thank you for being a steadfast source of strength and a shining example of love. The words ‘I love you’ hardly convey my true feelings.”
