Morton, who was diagnosed with Stage 4 Leukemia, now updates that he’s in remission. Since his diagnosis, he successfully underwent chemotherapy and beat the disease in 2018. At the time, Keke Wyatt and her son Rahjah Ke’ Morton appeared in a YouTube video about his cancer treatment journey.
In the video, they talked about their feelings upon first learning Morton’s diagnosis. Wyatt shared, “I said, ‘What is it? Like, cancer or something?’ And she said, ‘Yes.’ Honey, my butthole fell on the floor. My throat hit my butt and my butt hit the floor. I couldn’t believe it.”
Wyatt also revealed that she first noticed signs of Morton’s illness during a family trip to Disney World. While there, she said he was unable to walk and stand for long periods of time. Once he began losing weight at an alarming rate, the family began to seriously worry and visit a doctor. Morton said in the video, “Because I was dying! I was literally dying, and we didn’t know.”

Keke Wyatt’s Son Rahjah Ke’ Morton Accuses Her Of Exploiting His Cancer Battle For ‘Attention;’ She Allegedly Called It ‘Karma’ Because He’s LGBTQ+
On Friday (September 5), Morton decided to join the “Put a Finger Down” TikTok trend and made the allegations about his famous mother. In his now-viral video, he said:
“Put a finger down if you were diagnosed with cancer as a teenager and your parent decided to publicly announce your diagnosis for personal gain and attention, but behind the scenes saying that your diagnosis is karma for you being apart of the Alphabet mafia — and if they known that you were gonna turn out like this they could’ve kept their money.”
After going viral, Morton addressed his comments and shared several other videos answering questions and more. He claimed he thought the trend was relatable and wanted to share his story. He added that he’s not bashing his mother at all. Morton just wanted to start vlogging and thought this trend was the perfect start.
