Travis Hunter and Leanna Lenee Welcome Baby Boy Amid NFL Journey
Kai Montgomery here, reluctantly offering you the inside scoop on yet another celebrity life update that somehow made headlines. Yes, I know, another baby. But before you roll your eyes, let me tell you why this one’s actually worth the click.
Oh, look who decided to join the parenthood parade—NFL sensation Travis Hunter and his wife, Leanna Lenee, have quietly welcomed a baby boy into the world. And of course, they did it in the most 2025 way possible: through a YouTube vlog titled “Dear Son.” Because why just tell the world when you can monetize the moment?
The couple, who tied the knot in May 2025 after a whirlwind romance that began in 2022, shared the news in a heartfelt video posted on Travis’ YouTube channel on August 27. The vlog, which starts with the couple reacting to a positive pregnancy test, is a rollercoaster of emotions, dreams, and yes, even a celebratory dance in front of the mirror. Leanna, ever the believer in signs, shared that she had a dream back on February 28—yes, she wrote it down—where she saw a curly-haired baby boy. And wouldn’t you know it, her dream came true.
Now, let’s be real: Travis Hunter, the first-round NFL draft pick, is just getting started in his professional career. He was recently signed by the Jacksonville Jaguars, and with that comes the pressure to perform. But instead of focusing solely on training camp, he’s now juggling late-night feedings and diaper changes. Because nothing says “I’m ready for the NFL” like being sleep-deprived and covered in baby spit-up.
In the video, Travis gives a message to his newborn son that’s both humble and a little ego-driven: “Gotta be better than me.” Well, at least he’s setting the bar high. Or maybe he’s just trying to live vicariously through his son already. Either way, we’ll see how that plays out in 18 years when the kid tries out for Pop Warner football.
The vlog ends with Leanna in labor, Travis by her side, and the unmistakable sound of their baby boy crying as the screen fades to black. It’s all very cinematic, and honestly, a little overproduced for a personal moment, but hey, that’s modern parenthood in the spotlight for you.
And just to add to the timeline chaos, the birth comes just three months after the couple’s intimate wedding ceremony. Leanna posted a heartfelt Instagram caption reflecting on their journey from becoming a couple in February 2022 to tying the knot in May 2025. “On 02/26/2022 you first asked me to be your girlfriend… Now 3.5 years later, on 05/24/2025, I became your wife,” she wrote. So yeah, they went from dating to married to parents in less than four years. Impressive? Sure. A little rushed? Also sure.
Of course, they’re not the only celebrity couple to welcome a bundle of joy this year. Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi adopted a baby girl, Nell Hudson gave birth to a daughter, Michelle Williams added to her brood via surrogate, and Calvin Harris and Vick Hope welcomed a son named Micah. But Hunter and Lenee’s arrival is definitely the most NFL-centric of the bunch.
So, what’s next for the young family? Probably a lot of naps, a few NFL games, and more vlogs. Because if there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s that Travis and Leanna aren’t shy about sharing their lives online. And let’s be honest, the internet will be watching—especially to see if baby Hunter lives up to that lofty standard his dad set.
Because really, who are we kidding? The kid’s already got a legacy to live up to.
