Who Is Rymir Satterthwaite? Meet the Man Claiming to Be Jay-Z’s Son

by

Rymir Satterthwaite is sure he is part of Jay-Z’s bloodline. 

In a recent filing acquired by TopMob News, the rapper (known as Shawn Carter) alleges that Rymir and his godmother and caretaker Lillie Coley have been persistently pestering him with their claim.

In the documents submitted on June 16th, Jay-Z, who has children Blue Ivy (age 13), Rumi (also 13) and Sir (8 years old) with his wife Beyoncé, claimed that a recent lawsuit filed by a 30-year-old individual named Lillie is “the latest instance” in what he describes as “decades of harassment.

The falsely made accusations and statements have been dealt with and dismissed in various other courts before. However, the persistent harassment of the Defendant by the Plaintiff, despite previous court orders, has previously led to a contempt ruling. (This version aims to make the text more conversational and easier to understand for a broader audience.)

Jay-Z asked for more time to officially address Rymir’s lawsuit, which was filed on May 3. He stated that he wasn’t aware of the lawsuit until last month and argued that it wasn’t properly served. As a result, his legal team requested an extra four weeks to thoroughly review the complaint and decide on the best way to respond or offer a counterargument.

In other parts of the court document, he claimed that his team tried repeatedly to contact Lillie directly to allow more time for her response to the lawsuit, however, it appears she ended those calls prematurely.

Meanwhile, Rymir’s lawsuit claims—as he has for many years—that Jay-Z is his biological father. 

In the mid-1990s, when Defendant’s music career was climbing to great heights, according to Rymir’s lawsuit (previously obtained by TopMob News), it soon turned into a relentless attempt to conceal a personal truth – that he had fathered a child with Wanda Satterthwaite, who is now deceased.

In simpler terms, Rymir’s lawsuit claims that Jay-Z has not publicly admitted or proven in court that he is Rymir’s father.

In his legal action, the man asserting he’s Jay-Z’s son is not asking for reparational child support but rather compensation for emotional turmoil, damage to reputation, and lost financial aid, along with “reasonable” help in covering legal fees and expenses.

Who is Rymir Satterthwaite’s mother?

As a devoted follower, I’d like to clarify that while my biological mother is Wanda Satterthwaite, it was Lillie who took on the primary role in raising me, particularly after 2011 when my mother fell ill. Regrettably, she passed away in 2016. However, in the year of her passing, Wanda had shared a video with Radar Online, asserting her belief that Jay-Z was the father of my brother.

In the video, as reported by Radar Online, Wanda Satterthwaite introduced herself as Rymir Satterthwaite’s mother. On April 20, 2016, she chose to make a public statement about her son’s paternity lawsuit with Shawn Corey Carter. She firmly backs up the claims she made concerning this individual.

In Rymir’s recent lawsuit, the plaintiff asserts that Wanda had been seeking legal acknowledgment of Jay-Z’s paternity for about two decades. This lengthy process concluded sadly when she passed away, worn out and disheartened by years of rejection and hindrances.

What does Rymir Satterthwaite do for a living?

Hailing from Pennsylvania but currently residing in New Jersey, it seems that Rymir is treading a path similar to Jay-Z’s by embarking on a rap journey. On his Instagram, Rymir has posted snippets of himself performing songs he wrote such as “The Way She Moves” and “Stacks.

What has Rymir Satterthwaite said about Jay-Z?

Apart from his recent legal action against the rapper, Rymir has also posted about his campaign to get Jay-Z to acknowledge him as his biological son on his social networking platform.

Rymir, who has been striving for recognition from Jay-Z since he was 21, expressed to the Daily Mail in 2023 that this matter won’t be resolved until justice prevails. He simply wants to move forward with his life, and in the end, he hopes that if it is God’s plan, Jay-Z will become a part of his life as well.

What has Jay-Z said about Rymir Satterthwaite?

Although Jay-Z himself hasn’t made a statement regarding Rymir’s allegations, his legal representatives have refuted the claim that he is Rymir’s father for him.

In a conversation with Daily Mail back in 2023, my legal team clarified that the claims against me have been meticulously examined by the courts and found to be unsubstantiated. I am confident that this will remain the case as Mr. Satterthwaite mulls over any potential future filings.

Beyoncé featured daughter Rumi Carter on her new country album Cowboy Carter. 

In the fourth track of the project, titled “Protector”, Rumi requests, “Mom, could you play my bedtime song for me, please?” This segment then unfolds into a soothing acoustic melody expressing her profound affection for her kids.

During her pregnancy with her twins, the award-winning vocalist delivered an outstanding performance at the 2017 Grammy Awards. It’s fair to assume that Rumi and Sir Carter enjoyed a prime view of the show!

One month after giving birth to her twins, the delighted mother shared on Instagram her affection for the newborns, posting, “Today marks one month with Sir Carter and Rumi!

In July 2022, Beyoncé thanked her kids ahead of her Renaissance album release.

She expressed her gratitude on her site, accompanied by this picture, acknowledging Rumi, Sir, and Blue for providing her with the room, imagination, and motivation. Additionally, she thanked her husband and inspiration, who supported her through the long hours in the studio during the nighttime.

The group posed together as The Proud Family for Halloween 2023.

The Houston native flashed a huge smile as she carried her babies.

In the month of July 2023, Rumi participated in a backstage tour photograph session with Bey, Madonna, and three of Madonna’s daughters – Mercy, Stella, and Estere.

The twins adorably took a dip in the ocean in matching outfits.

The father-daughter duo looked at the amazing views as they enjoyed a boat ride together.

Kicking off 2021 as an ardent admirer, I’m beaming over Beyoncé’s heartwarming family video she shared on Instagram! She toasted the New Year with a heartfelt message, “Beyhive, here’s to a New Year!” Reflecting on 2020, she acknowledged that it was a year of separation and unity. Despite not being able to physically be with our loved ones and experiencing heartbreaking losses, we were all united by our shared humanity.

On her 38th birthday, the acclaimed singer posted exclusive photos showcasing the festivities surrounding her special occasion. One image captures her children assisting her in blowing out the candles on her cake.

During the “Black Is King” visual album, the singer of “The Black Parade” paid tribute to her son by penning, “To every one of our children, both boys and girls – you are like the sun and the moon. Respectfully, you hold the power; you are the gates to the kingdom.

It’s all about family! In the “Brown Skin Girl” music video from Black Is King, Beyoncé posed alongside her daughters and her mom, Tina Knowles.

A moment that was too cute for words!

Back in March 2021, the actress who starred in “The Lion King” posted uncommon images of her youngsters having fun on a beach outing in Malibu, California.
