You wont believe who her dad is...

LaTanya Young, Dr. Dre’s 37-year-old daughter, pits part of the blame on the music producer’s estranged wife

LaTanya Young, the oldest daughter of music mogul Dr. Dre, has stated that it’s been 17 years since she’s seen her father.

The Daily Mail reports that Young, 37, puts partial blame for their estranged status on Nicole Young, Dre’s longtime wife with whom he is currently divorcing.

Young is one of three daughters that Dre, 55, whose real name is

Andre Young, shares with former girlfriend Lisa Johnson. Dre and Johnson broke up when LaTanya Young was five. Since that time, she’s had little contact with her father, stating that she had to go through middle men to get in touch with her him. Dre is one of hip hop’s most prolific music producers.

“I hated going through third parties. If I needed him, I’d have to go to the studio and get bombarded and talked to by his security,” Young stated in an interview with

DailyMailTV. “I would have to go through his accountant or his right-hand man. I would never know whether he got my messages. I have never had a direct line to him.”

Young is a mother of four and has struggled financially throughout her adult life. She says that her father once offered to pay her college tuition, but it never came to pass.

“I was on assistance for a while. It’s embarrassing to say,” she said.

Although Dre has a reported net worth north of $800 million, Young says that she doesn’t want any financial assistance from her father. She is currently studying to be a nurse and only wants a chance to repair their personal relationship.

“I really just want to have closure. I just want to be able to spend time with my father,” she said.

Young says that Dre’s marriage to Nicole Young proved to be a hinderance in her attempts to get closer to her father over the years.

“She was very standoffish and mysterious,” she stated. “I got the impression she didn’t care to know any of us.”

She even recalled one incident from her teenage years when Nicole Young denied her and her youngest sister, Ashley Young, from coming through the gate of Dre’s home.

“She asked us what we were doing there and said that he was sleeping, and she threatened to call the police on us,” LaTanya Young explained.

With the divorce pending, LaTanya was hoping that Dre would be more receptive to fixing their relationship.

“I thought that after Nicole was out of the family, things would be better,” she said.

Doctors Reveal That Eating Peanuts Causes…see more

Peanuts are one of the most popular snacks in the world, packed with protein, healthy fats, and nutrients.

However, eating them incorrectly — or in excessive amounts — can lead to some

unexpected health issues.

Potential Health Problems Caused by Eating Peanuts

Allergic Reactions:
Peanuts are among the most common food allergens. Even a small amount can trigger severe allergic reactions in some people — including

rashes, swelling, difficulty breathing, or even anaphylaxis.
Weight Gain:
Although peanuts are healthy, they’re very high in calories and fat (about 600 calories per 100g). Eating too many can easily lead to

weight gain if not balanced with exercise or a controlled diet.
Aflatoxin Exposure:
Poorly stored peanuts can develop aflatoxin, a toxic substance produced by mold. Long-term exposure may damage the liver

and increase the risk of liver cancer. Always store peanuts in a cool, dry place and avoid eating ones that taste bitter or smell strange.
Digestive Issues:
Overeating peanuts can cause

gas, bloating, or constipation, especially if you don’t drink enough water. Salted or flavored peanuts can also raise blood pressure due to high sodium content.

Health Benefits of Eating Peanuts (When Eaten Moderately)

Heart Health:
Peanuts contain monounsaturated fats and resveratrol, which help lower bad cholesterol (LDL) and protect against heart disease.
Rich in Protein and Fiber:
They are a great source of plant-based protein, making you feel full longer — ideal for weight control when eaten in moderation.
Brain Booster:
The niacin and vitamin E in peanuts support brain function and may reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.
Blood Sugar Regulation:
Despite being high in fat, peanuts have a low glycemic index, helping stabilize blood sugar levels, especially for people with type 2 diabetes.
Improved Skin and Hair:
The biotin and antioxidants found in peanuts promote healthy skin and hair growth.

🍽️ How Much Is Safe to Eat?

Doctors recommend:

A handful (about 1 ounce or 28 grams) per day — roughly 30–35 peanuts.
Choose unsalted, dry-roasted, or raw peanuts.
Avoid heavily salted, candied, or fried varieties.

✅ In Summary:

Too many peanuts can cause allergies, weight gain, and digestive issues.
A moderate amount daily supports heart health, brain function, and energy.
The key is quality and moderation — buy fresh peanuts, store them properly, and enjoy them as part of a balanced diet.
