Former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Phaedra Parks showcased her five-year-old son’s musical talent Monday and fans chimed in on the sweet moment.

Parks shared a video of her son Dylan aka “Mr. President” playing the piano in their home. The five-year-old, who has never been professionally trained, went back-and-forth between keyboard octaves. The mother of two appeared to be proud of her son’s musical skills and wrote a sweet note to her baby boy on Instagram.

Five-year-old Dylan and her eldest son 8-year-old Ayden Nida have grown up so much since first appearing on “RHOA.” Fans were amazed by how big the boys have gotten.

“Wow, they both have grown so much. Beautiful and you are blessed, Phaedra,” one social follower wrote.

Parks shares her two sons with ex-husband Apollo Nida who’s currently serving eight years in prison for bank fraud.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
