Does Tyler, The Creator Adopt A Child? The Truth Behind The Rumors

Tyler, the Creator hasn’t adopted a child in the traditional sense. There was a lot of buzz online about whether he had a secret child, but he cleared the air on Twitter, saying he was just being ironic. However, the buzz probably stemmed from a viral video from years ago where he jokingly adopted a young girl named Chloe, who he called Esmerelda.

Chloe is now a teenager, and the whole thing was obviously a joke. But it’s a fun little bit of Tyler’s history, and it’s a great example of his playful and sometimes ironic sense of humor. The video, which shows Tyler playing the role of a concerned father figure to a young Chloe, is still circulating online. It’s a funny and heartwarming look back at a time when Tyler was just starting to make a name for himself.
