Back in 2015, Russell Wilson, freshly single, was sitting in a church, talking to his Pastor. The train of thoughts in his mind kept repeating, I’m going to be single for 10 years.” But the Pastor asked him to write five non-negotiables down for the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with. And as if it wasn’t the Giants QB simply jotting them down, he manifested Ciara into his life, whom he met just three days later. Fast forward to 2016, they were already married, waiting for their kid number two, first being Ciara’s son Future Zahir with ex-fiance. Since then, the two haven’t looked back.

Funny enough, it doesn’t stop at being best friends and life partners to each other. While the two are all-in on their passions, their family also kept growing. And if four kids weren’t already enough, Wilson has been adding requests to Ciarra for a baby No. 5, who he has already named– Cinco. While this wish keeps popping out every now and then, with him even buttering her up with a “You are so good at this Mom thing, let’s have another,” he has his reasons for it too. Two in particular.

One– he knows God has given him this responsibility as a gift to raise his kids. Two– he absolutely loves being a father. So, when the day calls for celebrating fatherhood, of course Ciara, who hands down appreciates what Russell does for the family, had to give him something special, even though it ultimately turned into a Cinco request.

The singer took it to her Instagram account to show her followers what exactly Russell Wilson does for his family. Only taking the video up a notch was her caption. “You show up for our babies in the biggest way every day! Your love, dedication, leadership, and presence make all the difference! You inspire us so much! We are so grateful for you! Thanks for being the amazing Father you are @DangeRussWilson! You really are the best! Happy Father’s Day! We love you so much!”

Ciara followed up with a message in her Instagram Story, tagging him again, “@dangerusswilson I love you so much.” Russell, rising up to the moment, reposted it with a hearty caption on his story, “Y’all make my world go round.” But it was Russell Wilson’s comment that truly lit up the post and raised eyebrows.

“Daddy loves you guys so so much! The greatest gift is you all. I thank Jesus for how He brought us together! HE gets the GLORY!” he wrote. Then, in a flirty twist, the New York Giants QB added, “Ps… you kissin’ me like u ready @ciara… put 5 on it… ‘Cinco’ Wilson. It rings.” So, the baby No. 5 “Cinco” campaign is rolling once again.

We all are familiar with Wilson’s demand for baby No. 5. He teased the idea shortly after their daughter Amora was born in December 2023. “Amora came out and he starts talking about ‘Cinco,’” Ciara told Access Hollywood. “I’m like, ‘That’s just disrespectful! Do you know what I just went through?” Ciara didn’t shy away from revealing that while she finds her husband’s antics funny, it is nonetheless exhausting. But Wilson hasn’t slowed down.

Russell Wilson's 'Cinco' campaign: Heartwarming or too much? How do you see his fatherhood journey?

Have an interesting take?

From commenting “We can call him Cinco” under Ciara’s Instagram photos to a Carnival post saying, “This my mating call I see… Cinco goin’ to be on di way!,” his jokes keep coming. Even back on Mother’s Day, posting a heartfelt tribute to Ciara, he pushed forward his cause. “You are so good at this Mom thing, let’s have another.” Ciara responded sweetly, “This campaign is strong… truth is, I already have Cinco with you.” So, it seems like Russell Wilson is adamant regarding his demand for Cinco. But what is evident to us all is how deeply he cherishes fatherhood.

Currently on a one-year, $10.5 million deal with the Giants, Wilson is busy amping himself up both as a starter and mentor to rookie Jaxson Dart. But, despite the commitments, he never fails to be there for his family. For him, fatherhood is what keeps him grounded.

Recalling the moment, he became a father to Future Zahir, he remarked, “When baby Future crawled into my lap, I heard God say, ‘Raising this child, it’s gonna be your responsibility.’” He considered it a gift. Their first child together, Sienna, brings radiance to the family. In 2024, Russell proudly attended her daddy-daughter dance and shared a TikTok, saying, “Got two of the four dances she promised me!

When Win Harrison Wilson was born in 2020, his high energy was contagious. “The sweetest, most energetic, and funniest 2-year-old… The best little brother!,” Ciara called him. Their youngest child, Amora, made her debut just days after Wilson’s NFL game in December 2023. Wilson took to Instagram to write, “AMORA PRINCESS WILSON. 9 lbs 1oz. We Love You so much! @Ciara 2 wins in less than 24 hours!”

Fatherhood is his purpose. “When you’re raising children… you’ve got to love every single child as if they’re yours,” he remarked. So, considering it as his greatest honor, he continues to fulfill his responsibility, for which Ciara and fans love him thoroughly!
