TMZ reported that Ciara Wilson “legally” added “Wilson” to her son Future Zahir Wilburn‘s last name “a few years ago.”
TMZ’s claim seems to be an assumption based on Russell Wilson’s Instagram Story post.
The couple attended the 2025 US Open in Flushing Meadows. In the caption of a photo posted on his Instagram Story, Russell wrote: “Mrs. @ciara Wilson Future Wilson & Sienna Wilson.”
Social media ran wild with the story. Fans speculated that Russell “adopted” little Future.
But TMZ didn’t provide a copy of a court document showing the name change or adoption by Russell.
According to reports, Future Zahir’s father, rapper Future Hendrix did not give up his parental rights. In fact, Future is still paying Ciara $2,800 a month in child support for little Future.
Ciara, 39, and Russell, 36, met in 2014 – weeks after she ended her engagement to rapper Future, 41.
Ciara and Russell announced their engagement on March 11, 2016. They were married at a castle in England on July 6 of that year.
They share three children: son Win and daughters Sienna and Amora.
