Keke Palmer and her ex, Darius Jackson, reunited for a family outing with their son, Leodis, this past weekend. The trio enjoyed a fun-filled day at the zoo, sharing some sweet photos on Instagram.
On Sunday, Jackson, also known as Darius Daulton, shared a sweet photo on his Instagram stories from their excursion.
The snapshot shows Palmer and Jackson smiling as they pose on either side of their 1-year-old baby boy.
He captioned the photo, “The boy and his folks.”
The family outing marks the first public appearance of the two together since Palmer withdrew her restraining order and custody case against Jackson.
In November 2023, Keke made headlines by filing a lawsuit for both a restraining order and sole custody of their son. She accused Jackson of multiple instances of domestic violence, which drew significant media attention.
However, the legal case took an unexpected turn as Palmer recently dropped her request for a restraining order and sole custody.
According to documents obtained by The Blast, the domestic violence restraining order hearing, initially set for July 16, 2024, was officially canceled after Palmer’s attorney filed the necessary paperwork.
The decision effectively removed the hearing from the court’s calendar, signaling a shift in the ongoing saga.
The reasons behind Palmer’s decision remain undisclosed, but many speculate that she and Jackson may have reached a private agreement.
This development comes five months after the former couple agreed to engage in a court-mandated mediation session, suggesting that a truce might have been achieved behind the scenes.
Neither Palmer nor Jackson has publicly addressed the dismissal of the case, but the cancellation of the hearing suggests a de-escalation of tensions. It appears both parties are now focusing on co-parenting Leodis in a more amicable manner.
