Shereé Whitfield Proves Her Granddaughter Is Following in Her "Fashionista" Footsteps
The RHOA cast member shared another sweet update on her 1-year-old "glam-baby," Mecca.
It seems there’s another fashionista in the Whitfield family.
Months after introducing the world to her granddaughter, Mecca Joie, Shereé Whitfield took to Instagram to provide another cute update on her family’s newest addition. Shereé reposted a photo of Mecca looking absolutely adorable in a khaki button sundress with ruffled cap sleeves, a pointed collar, and a matching belt. The ensemble was rounded out with gold bracelets on each wrist, a pair of white flower-framed sunglasses, and a black handbag with a pearl-like top handle.
“The future is so bright I have to wear shades,” read the October 11 post on Mecca’s verified Instagram.
Shereé shared the carousel on her Stories, along with the caption: “[Mecca Whitfield] going to be a fashionista like her glam-ma.”
Shereé Whitfield's granddaughter, Mecca, Models SHE by Shereé
That same day, the RHOA mom posted a photo of her granddaughter rocking a piece from SHE by Shereé, her iconic apparel, accessories, and lifestyle brand. The photo showed a smiling Mecca modeling the light blue “Child Star Hoodie” from the company's baby collection. The range also included a star-patterned sweatshirt set and a “Who Gon Check Me Boo?” graphic onesie — two standout designs the baby girl has previously worn.
Mecca, who also inherited her grandma’s affinity for “fast cars,” is the first child of Shereé’s only son, Kairo Whitfield. The Morehouse alum shares the toddler with his salon-owner girlfriend Alina Barber, who gave birth more than a year ago.
Mecca Whitfield's RHOA debut
Mecca made her RHOA debut in Season 15 Episode 6, when Kairo and Alina stopped by Chateau Shereé to make a Christmas ornament from Mecca’s handprint. The RHOA OG gushed over the bundle of joy and recalled the exact moment she learned she would become a grandma.
“Kairo walks in and he’s just standing there, and I’m like, ‘What’s up?’ and then he finally said, ‘I have a baby on the way,’” she said in an interview. “Alina was already four months pregnant, and so I totally felt like I was behind preparing for the baby. I don’t even think it really, really resonated or hit me yet.”
Shereé went on to praise Kairo for the way he’s embraced fatherhood: “He is so hands-on and I love it that I raised him to be that type of person. Even though when he first told me, I didn’t feel like he was ready, his actions are showing me that he’s more than ready to be a dad. Kairo is doing amazing. He really is.”
