Snoop Dogg’s Daughter Cori Broadus Announces Death of Her Infant Daughter Weeks After NICU Release

The Broadus family is facing an unimaginable tragedy. Cori Broadus, the singer and youngest daughter of Snoop Dogg, has shared the devastating news that her infant daughter, Codi Dreaux, has passed away. The loss comes as a massive shock to fans who have been following the little “miracle baby’s” journey since her birth in February 2025.

Codi’s entrance into the world was a battle from the start; she was born prematurely at just 25 weeks and spent a grueling 10 months in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). The family finally celebrated a major milestone in early January 2026 when Codi was released to go home, but that joy was tragically short-lived.

Cori took to Instagram to share her grief, posting a raw and emotional message: “Monday; I lost the love of my life. My Codi.” Still reeling from the sudden turn of events, she later added, “20 days later?! dawg im sick,” highlighting the heartbreak of losing her daughter less than three weeks after they left the hospital.

Her fiancé, Wayne Deuce, also honored their daughter with a touching post, sharing a photo of himself holding Codi.

“I been the saddest since u left me Codi Dreaux. But I know u at peace. Daddy will always love you,” he wrote, adding the hashtag #LongLiveCodiDreaux.

Throughout the past year, Cori was an open book about the “fear, guilt, and faith” that defined her journey as a NICU mom. To see her family face this loss so soon after such a long-awaited homecoming is truly devastating. We send our deepest prayers and condolences to Cori, Wayne, and the entire Broadus family during this difficult time.
