Christmas Day has turned into a moment of double happiness for the Leakes family this year! Nene Leakes shared some touching news on Instagram: her son Brent, who is just 23, has welcomed his very first child, a beautiful baby girl named Kynd Leakes.
Nene couldn’t help but post an adorable picture of the little one, captioning it as the “Best Christmas Gift Ever.” She expressed her joy by saying, “This little bundle of love and joy arrived just in time for Christmas. @kingbrentt’s 1st child/1st daughter. Fabulous Glam’Ma.”
This announcement is not just a sweet family moment; it’s a symbol of triumph for Brent, especially considering his past challenges. Last year, he suffered a serious stroke that could have had devastating consequences. Nene even reached out to friends and fans for prayers during that difficult time.
Now, just a year later, with baby Kynd’s arrival, Brent’s journey has taken a beautiful turn, and supporters have been flooding Nene’s post with congratulatory messages, sharing in the family’s holiday blessings.
Interestingly, this isn’t the first time Nene has received exciting grandparent news. Back in 2012, she shared with InTouch Weekly how shocked she was to find out she was going to be a grandmother. Her oldest son, Bryson, was just 22 when he welcomed a baby girl named Bri’asia with his girlfriend, Ashley Hill.
The proud “Glam’Ma,” Nene couldn’t contain her excitement and described Bri’asia as “adorable,” admitting she had mixed feelings about such unexpected news.
During that exclusive interview, Nene spoke candidly about what it meant to be a young grandmother. “I’m a young grandmother, and I’m OK with it. Now, I’m just embracing it,” she reflected.
Over time, Nene has kept her bond with her grandchildren strong, regularly sharing glimpses of her family adventures on social media. In one of her posts in 2013, she shared sweet moments with Bri’asia, now 10 years old, who was rocking an off-the-shoulder sweatshirt and shorts while Nene chose a chic all-black outfit. Brent’s path to becoming a father has truly been unique.
After his health scare last year, Nene opened up about the emotional challenges they faced as a family and expressed her gratitude for the outpouring of support. Brent’s stroke surprised many, especially considering his young age.
However, with hard work and a supportive mother, he’s made incredible progress. The birth of baby Kynd has brought a refreshing wave of hope and joy to both Brent and the Leakes family as a whole.
One fan captured the sentiment perfectly by commenting, “Congrats, Nene, on your new Glambaby!!”
