Noemi Zamacona agreed over a ‘friendly dinner’s to have a child together.
During the pandemic lockdown, Jones realized he wanted to have another kid, and when he found out that Zamacona, a long-time acquaintance who works for the Los Angeles County Inspector General’s Office, wanted a baby as well, the two ‘friendly’ aided one other.
Jones, who has a daughter named Mattai and a son named Cabral with ex-wife Jana Carter, told TMZ that after the pandemic lockdown, he realized he wanted to have another child.
‘I knew I wanted a second child.’ ‘I found out that my buddy Noemi wanted a child, too,’ he explained. ‘As a result, we came together and chose to become conscious co-parents.’ I’m hoping that more people will look into and consider this idea.’
One intimate source said, ‘It’s a pretty modern layout.’
One person close to Jones stated, ‘It’s a pretty modern arrangement.’ ‘They’re not a couple, but they are a group of people who wish to raise a child together.’
Jones, whose ex-wife filed for divorce in September 2018 and the divorce was finalized in June 2019, said his new daughter was born in February and that he was looking forward to raising her with Zamacona.
‘For our families, this is a unique moment. ‘I am happy, glad, and blessed,’ he expressed his gratitude.
‘I humbly request privacy as we work to establish a secure and loving environment for this precious young person.’ ‘Thank you so much for your love and support.’
After breaking up with Carter in 2018, the couple stated that their divorce was amicable.
‘Though we have decided to terminate our marriage, we still love each other very much,’ they told People magazine.
‘We’ll continue to raise our children together, run our businesses together, and help each other succeed.’ There’s no feuding or turmoil here; only progress.’
Following that, the couple sued for shared custody of their children.
