The Denver Broncos quarterback, who's married to Ciara, talked about the day he knew 9-year-old Future Zahir would one day be his "responsibility."
Football star Russell Wilson recently opened up about the moment he knew was ready to become a stepdad.
During a sit-down conversation on the podcast “I Am Athlete” posted on Sunday, the Denver Broncos quarterback recalled the first time he met his stepson, Future Zahir, who’s now 9 years old.
Wilson met the oldest son of his now-wife, Ciara, after he began dating the “Level Up” singer. He said he knew right away that Future Zahir, who was 9 months old at the time, would one day be his “responsibility.”
“When I walked in the room and I saw little Future — he’s 9 months at the time or whatever — and he crawls in my lap, it was like, ‘This is going to be my responsibility,’” he said.
“I remember leaving that night and God’s saying to me raising this child is going to be your responsibility,” he continued, later adding that he knew he was ready for the parenting journey.
