What did Lauren London say about Nipsey Hussle?

"Honoring the day you blessed the Earth with your presence. Forever more," London wrote in the caption, before adding, "I love you," followed by checkered flag emojis and a blue heart.

The picture shows Hussle (real name: Ermias Joseph Asghedom), wearing a number of gold chains around his neck, looking at the camera with his hands clasped in a prayer pose.

'True testament to the power of love'

Each time London posts a message for her late companion, she receives an enormous outpouring of support from individuals in her network.

Many friends and fans, including Taraji P. Henson and Yara Shahidi, posted blue hearts in remembrance.

Fans and followers also took to the comment section to pay their own tributes to the late rapper with one fan commenting, "Happy Birthday King your still inspiring us daily."

American actress Nia Long commented, "Wrapping my arms around you a little tighter today, " followed by a heart emoji.

Jada Pinkett Smith's mother Adrienne Banfield Norris also commented, "Sending a huge hug for you and your boys! You know we love you guys."

Another fan commented, "You are a true testament to the power of love and having a true soulmate. Thank you for carrying on his marathon and teaching the masses about Nipsey's story and legacy. You are vital," followed by a blue heart emoji.

What is Lauren London doing now?

London has received praise for her work in the Netflix comedy 'You People,' but there is one person whose opinion she would have liked to hear: her late lover Nipsey Hussle.

In a January 2023 interview with the 'PEOPLE Every Day' podcast, London discussed her recent project and how, over four years after the tragic death of her boyfriend Hussle, she is "still a work in progress."

In spite of her efforts to find peace and celebrate her parenting and professional accomplishments, such as the "success of having a job and meeting people and people showing me love," London stated at the time that she still occasionally has "the feeling of there's one person you wished was here to watch the movie with you."

London told host Janine Rubenstein, "I have to wake up with the intention of this every day because there are days I don't want to, and I'm like angry about it."

"And that's what healing is. It is up and down, side to side, all over the place. You know what I mean? And with each new level, there's something else," London further added.

The couple became romantically involved in 2013 and welcomed their son, Kross Ermias Asghedom, in August 2016.

London is also a mother to 13-year-old son Kameron Carter whom she had with musician Lil Wayne.
