Syesha Mercado has her newborn daughter Ast back with her days after CPS took her away.
Tyron Deener, the American Idol finalist’s partner, announced the news on Instagram. He posted a video of himself in the car with their baby girl next to him.
He captioned the post, “AST IS HOME!!!! #BringRaHome POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!!!!!” Tyron told the followers, “I’m going to make this a real quick live. Ast is home. Ast is home. We have Ast with us.”
He added, “We wanted to say thank you. We still got work to do to get Ra back. But we wanted to say thank you because of y’all … we had the proper support to get the best attorneys in the country to bring justice, Ast is back.”
As Breaking Celebrity News previously reported, back in February, Syesha had her son Amen'Ra taken from her after she took him to the hospital. She said he was having issues transitioning from breast milk to solid food. She said the staff accused her of refusing a B12 shot for her son and then CPS stepped in.
