Edna Mattox (mother)
Date of birth: August 6, 1955
She is an important figure in his life, his inspiration, and his role model. The woman raised three kids and several grandchildren by herself. She earned her living as a beautician. Takeoff – another member of “Migos” – is her grandson.
Quavo maintains a warm relationship with his mother. He showers her with expensive gifts, like a new mansion for Christmas, a new classy car for a birthday, and a golden chain with the words “Mama Huncho”. She is named in the press as “Mama Quavo”, too.
In fact, Quavo shared the price of £1 million, which he spent on a new mansion for Edna, with his nephew Takeoff. They recorded Mrs. Marshall’s reaction when she saw the mansion. She couldn’t control her emotions and scream.
At the same time, not all rapper’s fans can understand his too-close relationship with his momma. They say Edna treats her son, like her man, because most part of her life she was single. And that’s not right, as they say.
Edna is the daughter of the late Jennie and George Mattox. She grew up with 3 sisters and a brother. Edna had 2 daughters and a son Quavo with Mr. Marshall. Her husband died and since then she was officially single. When Quavo was a high school pupil, she moved her family from Athens, GA to Lawrenceville, GA. The family lived in a small subsidized house. They say Quavo always was Edna’s favorite. Her daughters used to tell, that their mother forgave her beloved son for almost everything.
Till now Edna and Quavo are very close. She dreams to see him married and with kids. Very often she gives pieces of advice to his girlfriends on how to build strong relationships with him. But they never follow her recommendations.
