Kimora Lee and Russell Simmons may have divorced a long time ago, but the two remain humble when it comes down to co-parenting. Kimora and her now husband, Tim Leissner, have even asked Simmons to be the Godfather of their son, Wolf; he happily obliged.

In addition to being a family, Simmons takes to Instagram to open up about being partners with the Tim.

“I feel incredibly close to my best friend Kimora Leissner and her amazing spouse and now my business partner, Tim Leissner,” he writes.

Family. I’m excited to receive my family tomorrow. As a single man with kids who are away at boarding school it gets kind of lonely. This morning’s meditation made me reflect on just how lucky I am. I feel incredibly close to my best friend Kimora Leissner and her amazing spouse and now my business partner, Tim Leissner. I also feel very close to the father of one of the kids I love the most in the world (Kenzo Lee)Djimon Hounsou. When Tim asked me to be the Godfather to his and Kimora’s beautiful baby boy, WOLF, I was overwhelmed. Anyhow with my 2 biological kids being so sweet, compassionate and excelling in one of the best boarding schools in the world (receiving straight A’s). I feel so grateful I can’t really express the feelings in words. While I realize that life is short and ever changing (you never know what’s around the bend) for now I must say this morning meditation produced tears of joy. Thank you KIMORA LEE FOR BEING A STRONG, STRONG EXAMPLE OF EXCELLENCE. You are the best mother on the planet. “YOU PUT THIS THING TOGETHER”.
