Jacky Ohwill forever be a part ofDC Young Fly’s heart.
During an appearance on Tuesday’sTamron Hallepisode, the 31-year-oldCelebrity Squareshost opened up about how he is continuing to navigate his grief from losing his longtime partner, Jacky Oh, in May.
“Part of the grieving process is still — I don’t know, to this day because I’m still learning, I’m six months in,” he explained. “This is a forever thing. So I may feel differently in two years. I may feel differently in 10, but I’m just thankful that God allowed me to continue, you know what I’m saying?”
Going forward, theCandy Cane Laneactor said: “I understand my calling and I understand my purpose. The calling is, you know, I’m put here on this Earth for a higher purpose, which is to entertain the world but also show the world where it’s coming from.”

“You know, it’s coming from the Most High and I’m an example because now you got to see me go through trauma and still continue with my job,” he added. “I appreciate people like y’all because God brings people to me who need to hear what I got to say.”
DC Young Fly also admitted thathe “scared myself"while trying to process the fellowWild N’ Outstar’s death.
“I’ve been through so much loss where it’s like emotionally, like I’m numb to death because I’m used to it since I was 16. So every death is a different reaction,” he said. “With my cousin, I was angry. When my father died, I was at peace. When my best friend died, I was confused. Now when my girl died, I’m shocked and who is this for? See what I’m saying. Okay, now who is this for? Who is this for? Who do I have to talk to? Because this not only affects me, it affects my children. They have went through something that I ain’t even been through.”
