Before You Go

Wayne has much more than a talented daughter in his mini-me. Reginae Carter has returned to social media to share more priceless footage of herself showing off major acting chops. Earlier in April 2020, Reginae returned to Instagram with some epic must-see content. Carter shared a hilarious clip of herself donning a hoodie and acting out her dad.
