Zion Marley & Lauryn Hills Grand Kids surprise singers on stage

Lauryn Hill had a teary-eyed moment with her son Zion Marley and his beautiful children as she pays tribute to him over 25 years ago.

On Saturday, the 47-year-old singer wrapped up the One Music Festival in Atlanta. Ms Hill performed hits from her time with The Fugees and from her solo album for the packed show. The Grammy winner also shared a beautifully deconstructed version of her ode to her son Zion.

The mother’s song, “To Zion,” was Lauryn’s personal story of how proud she was of her decision to keep her son when she became pregnant by his father, Zohan Marley, at the height of her career. The parents were in a long-term relationship for 15 years before calling it quits in 2012. They share five children together.

Zion & Lauryn Hill share a touching moment

Fans in the crowd saw Zion, now 25, surprise his mother with a warm hug on stage as she performed her tribute. Right after the mother and son shared the magical moment, Zion went backstage to get his young children to share a loving moment with their grandmother, Ms. Lauryn Hill.

The heartfelt moment when Lauryn Hill first introduced her grandchildren was captured on video by fans.

“This is my grandson Zephaniah. This is my granddaughter Azaria. This is my son Zion,” Hill said.
