Joie Chavis shares viral story of son Hendrix wearing Future diamond chain to school

Instagram video shows Hendrix taking father Future diamond Cuban chain to impress school crush

Joie Chavis recently shared a humorous parenting anecdote involving her son Hendrix and a piece of jewelry belonging to his father, rapper Future, which quickly gained traction online.

In a video posted to Instagram and later circulated across social media platforms, Chavis explained that Hendrix wore one of Future’s diamond-encrusted Cuban link chains to school in an attempt to impress a classmate. The story drew widespread attention, with many users describing the moment as amusing and relatable.

According to Chavis, the incident occurred during a busy school morning when Hendrix appeared distracted as they were preparing to leave. In the video, she recalled questioning why he was lingering, unaware at the time that he had taken the chain and kept it hidden in his pocket.

Chavis said she only realized what had happened later that day when Hendrix returned home wearing the jewelry openly. She noted that the chain was one of Future’s signature diamond Cuban links with a plate, making it a particularly noticeable accessory for a young child.

She further explained that the decision appeared to be connected to a recent interaction Hendrix had with a girl at school. Chavis said her son had mentioned noticing the girl, whom he identified as being in a higher grade, and recalled a moment when she greeted him confidently, which she believes influenced his desire to emulate his father’s flashy style.

The video spread rapidly across Instagram, TikTok, and X, accumulating hundreds of thousands of views. Online reactions included jokes suggesting Hendrix was already following in his father’s footsteps.

Hendrix, the youngest child shared by Chavis and Future, has previously appeared in lighthearted social media moments. While Chavis referred to him as six years old in the video, public records show he was born in December 2018, making him closer to seven years old as of early 2026.

Chavis emphasized that the situation was handled with humor, stating that the chain was returned and no issues resulted from the incident. The story offered a brief glimpse into how celebrity culture and childhood experiences can intersect, even in an elementary school setting.
