She edited together adorable videos and photos of Jackson for an Instagram reel, set toKhalid’s “Motion.” In the video, the new father showed off his parenting chops, cuddling and dancing with Leo — and going out of his way to make the toddler smile.
“Happy Father’s Day to the best dad ever!” Palmer captioned the post before joking, “Don’t tell my dad I said that.”
TheScream Queensstar continued, “Congrats Mr. Man, Leodis and I are so very happy to have such a fun, kind, responsible, dependable and supportive man like you in our lives. It’s so wonderful to see the kind of loving father you are, but I’m not surprised.
“You wanted to be a dad maybe more than I wanted to be a mother and that’s saying a lot, because I’ve ALWAYS wanted to be a mother. I love this for us, but I really love it for Leo!”
“God bless you, darling, thank you for being in our lives,” she concluded her tribute. “WE LOVE YOU!”
