Hiplife pioneer Reggie Rockstone has disclosed that former Chief Justice of Ghana, Sophia Akuffo, was one of three women who helped raise him.<\/p>\n In a conversation with media personality Deloris Frimpong-Manso on \u201cThe Delay Show,\u201d the Grandpapa of Hiplife shared details about his upbringing and how different women played maternal roles in his life at various stages.<\/p>\n According to Reggie, Sophia Akuffo, whom he calls \u201cMum Sophia,\u201d was once his father\u2019s companion and a figure in his early years. <\/p>\n He explained that although his father never married her, she was involved in his upbringing.<\/p>\n Music was never my career – Reggie Rockstone<\/p>\n \u201cMy dad didn\u2019t marry her, though. He never married anyone except my biological mother. From Milly, I was raised by Mum Sophia (Sophia Akuffo, former Chief Justice of Ghana), who was also my father\u2019s companion. We still have a relationship,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n Reggie Rockstone explained that his parents had a troubled marriage that eventually ended in separation. Afterward, his father lived with different women at different times, and those women became part of his family, helping to raise him.<\/p>\n \u201cI was born in the UK and raised by three beautiful, strong women. My biological mum Anna, of course, the African American side, Milly, who was my father\u2019s companion. Before my dad and biological mother separated, I had another mum who raised me, and that\u2019s Milly,\u201d he recounted.<\/p>\n The \u201cKeep Your Eyes on the Road\u201d hitmaker also looked back on his parents\u2019 separation and how it affected his childhood, including his movement between the UK, Ghana, and the United States.<\/p>\n \u201cMy mother and father broke up when I was very young. I was a child. I was with my mum for maybe seven years. I was their only child for many years. Even my oldest child is older than my siblings,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n He recounted how his mother, a certified nurse in the UK, brought him to Ghana under the pretense of a holiday. At the time, her marriage was struggling, and she decided to stay in Ghana with her son.<\/p>\n \u201cMy mum told me we were coming for holidays and that\u2019s how I came to Ghana. Around that time, they hadn\u2019t broken up, but the marriage wasn\u2019t as good as expected. Based on how my father\u2019s life was at the time, she advised herself and brought me to Ghana,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n Reggie also spoke fondly of his late father, the legendary Saint Osei, popularly known as Ricky, who was a fashion designer abroad.<\/p>\n \u201cMy dad is the legendary Saint Osei (Ricky). He was a fashion designer, a very successful one at that. I was born into an artistic family. Ricky made money when my mum left with me to Ghana because he moved to America. And later, when he made it, he came for me. He came for me because he had made it, and I was his first son,\u201d Reggie shared.<\/p>\n Watch the video below<\/b><\/p>\n![\"Reggie](\"https:\/\/cdn.ghanaweb.com\/imagelib\/pics\/823\/82343509.295.jpg\" "\\"Reggie")
