Tragic Loss for Snoop Dogg’s Family as Daughter’s Baby Passes Away
Legendary rapper Snoop Dogg and his family are facing heartbreaking grief after the death of his 10‑month‑old granddaughter, Codi Dreaux. The news was shared by his daughter, Cori Broadus, on social media on January 31, 2026, when she wrote, “Monday, I lost the love of my life. My Codi” alongside a black‑and‑white photo of herself holding her baby girl.
Codi was born prematurely at just 25 weeks in February 2025 after Cori developed HELLP syndrome, a severe pregnancy complication. She spent nearly her entire short life in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) before finally coming home in January 2026 — a moment that had brought hope and joy to the family.
Tragically, Codi passed away only weeks after her return home. Cori’s fiancé, Wayne Deuce, also shared his sorrow on Instagram, remembering their daughter with touching words and expressing that she will always be loved.
Snoop Dogg showed his support for his daughter and family by posting a photo with Cori and his sons with simple heart and prayer emojis, reflecting their shared grief. Friends, fans and fellow celebrities have also offered condolences during this deeply painful time.
The family’s public expressions of love and loss have highlighted both the joy Codi brought during her brief life and the profound sorrow her passing has caused.
