"As a single mom to a special needs child, this feels like a nightmare" says Alexia Adams

A tragic accident in early March 2023 saw 6yo Zohar Dillard, son of multimillionaire rapper Flo Rida, fall five storeys from the New Jersey apartment where he lives with his mum, Alexia Adams.

The horriyfing event has left little Zohar in ICU after suffering collapsed lungs, multiple fractures including a shattered pelvis, internal bleeding and cuts to his liver.

His uber-wealthy dad is nowhere to be seen, having refused to meet Zohar since his birth in 2016, according to Alexia.

Zohar has already endured a lot in his short life, living with special needs including autism and the significant neurological condition Hydrocephalus, which causes a build up of fluid inside the brain cavities.

The little boy had brain surgery in 2018 and Alexia said that Flo Rida – real name Tramar Dillard – made no contact. The mum claims the rapper called Zohar an “evil f***ing child”.

“Flo Rida has only seen his son once during the paternity test but kept his shades on and his back turned,” told the Daily Mail in 2018. “They were in the same room. He didn’t try to hug Zohar, nothing. It was very cold.”

Zohar’s mum is suing multiple bodies in relation to the safety of the window and how it was possible for her son to fall from such a height.

“As a single mom to a special needs child, this feels like a nightmare. My heart is broken into a million pieces,” Alexia said in a statement. “I am devastated, angry and struggling to come to terms with the fact that my only child has suffered severe injuries due to willful negligence of our landlord and others involved In failing to take necessary safety measures.”

The terrifying accident sparks thoughts of Eric Clapton’s son Conor who was just 4yo when he fell from a 53rd-floor window to his death, in 1991. Clapton’s song ‘Tears in Heaven’ is a moving tribute to his boy.

We wish Zohar all best wishes for his recovery.
