Sarunas Jackson parents are Romel Jackson and Yhinyer T Hubbard. Romel Jackson is the step father of the actor and his biological dad remains anonymous.
The surname of his real father is Daulton but Sarunas name was changed to Jackson in honor of his stepdad Romel.
Sarunas is an actor best known for his role on HBO’s hit series Insecure. He appeared as Alejandro ‘Dro’ Peña in 9 episodes between 2017 and 2021. Jackson also portrayed Isac Hall in the television series Good Trouble in 26 episodes between 2019 and 2022.
The Insecure actor made his acting debut in the 2014 short film Against The Ropes and has since collected 31 acting credits on his IMDb profile. Some of his well-known appearances include American Housewife, Games People Play, Made for Love, and B-Roll, among others.
Although Sarunas is now an established actor in Hollywood, he started out as an athlete. Initially, Jackson played basketball during his college years, and all of his 6-foot and 8-inches helped him secure acting roles in the beginning.
Furthermore, Sarunas’s unique ancestral background has also played a vital part in making his career.

According to HITC, Romel is Sarunas’s stepfather who has played a large part in raising the actor. Romel raised Sarunas and his sibling Darius together with their mother Yhinyer.
Information about his biological father largely remains unknown apart from his heritage as an African-American. However, Distractify reveals that the actor’s fans believed Sarunas father could be Ice Cube as they shared the same last name but it was later found they have no biological connection.
Mother Yhinyer T Hubbard
Yhinyer is found using Facebook but she has kept her profile fortified and her account does not reveal much. In fact, she does not have her pictures shared with the public on her social media account. She has shared an image of the Panama flag and the Argentinian flag.
Yhinyer migrated to the United States of America as first generation migrant. She comes from Panama and settled in California where the actor and his baby brother were born.
Father Romel Jackson
Jackson’s step-father Romel has given the actor his last name, indicating he adopted the former basketball player when Romel married his mother.
Sarunas’ last name from his biological father’s side is Daulton, which is still used by his younger sibling.
Speaking with People Chica, Sarunas revealed he has embraced both sides of his parent’s culture and identifies himself as Afro-Latino. He has got the best of both sides and has been vocal about representation in the entertainment industry.

Marcus is often seen sharing images with his two younger stepbrothers on his Instagram account. He is also seen sharing images and story highlights of his travels and vacations around the United States of America and the world. He has a distinctive mole on his right cheek.

Sarunas Jackson daughter Zen Jackson was born to him with his Insecure co-star Dominique Perry. The Insecure co-stars welcomed a baby girl named Zen on May 22, 2018.
Sarunas and his partner Dominique are not yet married, so he does not have a wife yet.
Both the actor and actress shared the same black-and-white picture of baby Zen on their Twitter and Instagram respectively. However, Perry later deleted the image for unknown reasons.
According to Vanity Fair, things looked fuzzy immediately after the pair welcomed their daughter as neither of them had confirmed their relationship with their fans and followers. However, the relationship between the two eventually cleared out.
Sarunas was believed to be dating Kaylen Zahara at the time of the baby’s arrival, reports Vanity Fair. Zahara also went on a rant on her Instagram account alleging the actor of cheating. She also mentioned that she learned about the baby together with the rest of the world from the internet.
However, Kaylen later followed up on her rant saying the two are good friends and have cleared the air between them.
Sarunas Jackson wife is not available as he has not married anyone. He has also not revealed anything about his recent relationship status and might not be together with his baby mama anymore.
Although Sarunas shares images of father-daughter time together on the web, Perry has not shared anything about her daughter on her Instagram account. She has deleted all of her pregnancy pics and Zen’s photos from her social media. The two appear to be carrying on in their separate paths.
