Angela Simmons and her son Sutton Joseph may just be the coolest mother-son duo on social media.

Simmons, 32, shared a series of photos to Instagram on Monday, Aug. 3, that showed her and baby SJ posing up a storm for her 6 million followers. The pair gave mommy-and-me fashion a whole new meaning.

The “Growing Up Hip Hop” star wore an acid-washed gray T-shirt complemented with black shorts, a black fedora with red trim, and sequined boots. She topped off her outfit with a black tote, pair of round sunglasses and shaggy blond tresses.

“Sincerely ‘US’ 💙,” the single mother of one wrote in her caption.

Simmons and SJ really won over fans with their mean mugs. People absolutely loved the duo’s cool snaps together.

“BAM” an admired exclaimed.

“Mom & Son Goals 😍 Hi SJ 👋🏽,” a fan commented. Another added, “My girl looking GORGEOUS FLAWLESS. You and baby boy have a good day 💎.”

“Y’all look fresh to death lol! He is so handsome!❤️❤️ Hey ang and sj god bless y’all day #dope,” someone else wrote. A different IG user said, “Little king with the fresh cut!! Love you guys to the moon and back💜 #momnsonsdiff”

Simmons welcomed baby SJ in September 2016 with then-fiancĂŠ Sutton Tennyson.

Tennyson was shot and killed in November 2018 at his Atlanta home. He and television personality had split at the time of his death after calling off their engagement in December 2017.

A day after her ex-fiance’s death, Simmons posted a series of touching tributes to him. “Thank you for leaving behind my greatest gift,” she said alongside a series of family photos. “I promise to hold SJ down in every way I promise.”

The ABS Newsletter — Stories that matter, in your inbox.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
