KK Dixon, the ex-partner of Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant has often given glimpses of her relationship with their daughter Kaari Jaidyn Morant. Dixon often shares snapshots with Kaari on her social media accounts such as on her Instagram.

Dixon’s latest post with Kaari went up on TikTok and it featured the two of them dancing. The post also alluded to Dixon having a less-than-favorable relationship with her parents when she was growing up. She then hinted that she is raising her daughter differently from the way she was raised.

Captioning the TikTok dance with Kaari, Dixon said:

“Growing up with a parent with a parent who made you feel like this,” Dixon wrote. “So making sure you raise a daughter who can’t relate.”

Morant and Dixon began dating before Morant was an NBA star. They got together in 2017 when the duo were still in college.

Morant and Dixon had their daughter, Kaari Jaidyn Morant in 2019. However, the duo broke up in 2023, but have co-parented Kaari.

Kaari has occasionally been seen supporting her father during some of his games and she has even been seen wearing a miniature version of his jersey.
