Zandy has been “spoiling her rotten,” a source exclusively told Life & Style about the mama to be and her hubby. “He’ll surprise Lea with flowers, romantic dinners at home and gives her massages when she’s feeling tired and achy.”

August 2020

In August 2020, Lea gave birth to the couple’s first child, a son named Ever. She makes a point not to post photos of the little one’s face on social media and said she wants to “protect” him from “aspects of the [entertainment] industry that are not pretty.”

“Would I like him to go to college and maybe get a degree? Yeah, definitely,” Lea said in 2022. “But for me, my parents always supported me doing what I loved and what brought me joy. And I have to do the same thing with my child.”

2023

Lea and Zandy put on a united front in 2023 when Ever was dealing with health issues. He was hospitalized in March 2023 for a “scary health issue.” Lea did not specify what was wrong with her toddler, but assured fans a few days later that he was on the mend.

He was hospitalized again a few weeks later. “Ever’s doing good. He’s doing well,” Lea said in April 2023. “We still have a little bit of a long road ahead of us here, but he’s doing well, thank God, and healthy.”

Lea and Zandy welcomed baby No. 2, a little girl named Emery, in August 2024.
