Jalen Green and Draya Michele are now parents to a baby girl!
Their first child was born on Mother's Day, May 12, 2024. Draya Michele revealed the news on Instagram on May 17. Michele shared how her daughter's arrival added a new meaning to Mother's Day, which had been difficult since her father's passing in 2021.
In March 2024, his girlfriend Draya Michele, a model and media personality, announced her pregnancy on Instagram. She did not specifically name the father, but rumors linked Green to the baby. The couple has a major age difference, with Michele being 39 and Green being 22.
Jalen Green and Draya Michele have been romantically linked since August 2023. Here's a breakdown of their relationship.
Their relationship became public in August 2023 when they were spotted together. FYI, Draya Michele has two sons from previous relationships. Her eldest is just a year older than Green himself.
Jalen is embracing this new phase after he missed the playoffs in his rookie season. Green played well, and the Rockets even made a late-season push towards the playoffs. However, they started the season with a poor record and couldn't overcome the deficit.
Losses to teams like the Golden State Warriors, who were also fighting for a playoff spot, hurt the Rockets' chances. Even if they had the same record as a playoff team, the Rockets might have lost the tiebreaker based on head-to-head matchups.

Who is Draya Michele's first baby daddy?
