    And Swizz - whose real name is Kasseem Dean - also shared an image on his own Instagram account, where he thanked his spouse for “the best nine years of [his] life”.

    He wrote: “9yrs ago we took this pic looking like lil kids in love. Now it’s 9yrs later with two amazing Kids and we still feel like young love. Life and love is a work of greatness in progress.
