Roomies, when it comes to Sophie Brussaux, one thing about the internet? It’s gonna investigate EVERY detail. While folks spent years trying to piece together Drake’s personal timeline—between surprise reveals, rap drama, and viral internet debates—Sophie has been lowkey building her own lane right in the middle of it all. From her international roots and unexpected career pivot to a co-parenting journey that had social media in a chokehold, there’s way more to her than just headlines. Here’s everything you should know about Sophie Brussaux.
Sophie Said, “Oui Oui”!
Before Roomies knew her as Drake’s son’s mother, Sophie Brussaux was already living her best life across the pond. The French native was born and raised in France and still calls the country home today. And one thing about Sophie? She’s making sure her son Adonis stays connected to his roots. Fans have caught adorable glimpses of the youngster flexing both his French and English skills online, proving he’s already got international vibes at a young age. She’s also been fully in her mom bag, making sure he grows up grounded while still soaking in all that global exposure. Period!
The World Wasn’t Ready For Her Career Plot Twist
Sophie has had one of the most talked-about career glow-ups—and she did it completely on her own terms. Before stepping into the art world, Sophie previously worked in the adult entertainment industry under the name Rosee Divine. But instead of staying boxed in by her past, she pivoted hard and reintroduced herself as a painter and creative entrepreneur. And the art? It didn’t stay small-time for long. One of her biggest “okayyy, sis!” moments came in 2019 when she personally presented a portrait to Pope Francis himself.
