Keke Wyatt's 11 Kids: All About Her Sons and Daughters

"Nothing In This World" singer Keke Wyatt welcomed her 11th child in May 2022

Keke Wyatt is a proud mom of 11.

In May 2022, she and her husband, Zackariah Darring, welcomed a baby boy named Ke’Zyah. He is the couple’s second child together; their son Ke’Riah was born in January 2020.

Keke also has older children from her two previous marriages. At the age of 18, Keke married her road manager, Rahmat Morton. The R&B singer became a mom for the first time that same year with the birth of her son Keyver. They went on to have more children together, Rahjah Ke' and Ke'Tarah Victoria before getting a divorce in 2009. Keke also gave birth to a fourth child, a daughter she named Heaven, who was stillborn.

In 2010, Keke married her second husband, Michael Ford. The couple had four children, Ke'Mar Von, Wyatt Michael, Ke'Yoshi and Kendall Miguel, during their marriage, which lasted until 2017. Michael also had a child, Mickayla, from a previous relationship who Keke considers a daughter.

Keke told The Christian Post in 2017 that she felt a calling to be a mom of a big family. "I think I have an anointing on motherhood," she said. "I know it sounds funny, but I really think that it's a gift of mine. It can be difficult, but when you love something and are passionate about it, it's not really that hard."

Here’s everything to know about Keke Wyatt’s 11 kids.

Keyver Wyatt Morton, 24

Keke and her first husband, Rahmat, welcomed their first child, son Keyver, on March 27, 2000.

She was 18 years old at the time, and her single, “My First Love,” had just debuted.

In an interview with The Christian Post, Keke spoke about the experience, saying, “I had just gotten married and my career all in the same year.” She went on to explain that others around her worried about how motherhood would affect her life in the music industry.

Rather than let it prevent her success, she used it to inspire her. "[My children] gave me more power to fight. That was my gasoline,” she said.

Rahjah Ke' Morton, 22

Keke and Rahmat welcomed their second child, Rahjah Ke', on Feb. 27, 2002.

At the age of 13, Rahjah was diagnosed with leukemia. Keke revealed the diagnosis on Instagram in 2017, writing, “my child has been fighting cancer and lost all their hair that they loved.” She went on to say that in order to show support for Rahjah, she would be shaving her head as well.

Keke spoke about getting the diagnosis on YouTube, saying, “That was the scariest crap I had ever been through in my life. If there was ever a time in my life where I would lose my mind, that would be the day.”

In 2020, she shared the news that Rahjah was cancer-free, writing on Instagram, “NO MORE CANCER!!! GOD HEALED MY BABY!!!"

Ke’Tarah Victoria Morton, 16

Keke and Rahmat welcomed their daughter Ke’Tarah Victoria on Aug. 29, 2008.

After marrying her second husband, Michael Ford, in 2010, Keke became stepmom to his daughter, Mickayla.

When she announced her pregnancy in 2022, she referred to Kayla as her daughter, writing in an Instagram post, “My husband, Zackariah David Darring and I are proud to announce that our family will be adding a 'plus 1' to the Wyatt Bunch! Our other daughter [Kayla] wasn’t available for the picture but you’re with us in spirit Shuga!”

Keke and Michael welcomed their younger daughter, Ke’Yoshi Bella, on March 10, 2015.

In an interview with Essence, Keke shared that her advocacy for domestic violence survivors was based on wanting to set a good example for her daughters especially due to her own experiences with intimate partner violence.

“After that experience I’m very aware of not wanting to re-create an environment like that for my girls," she said. "They won’t go down that road.”

In 2017, Keke shared a photo on Instagram of her with her three daughters with the caption: “Mommy's little 👑queens 💕💝💕.” A few years later, Keke and her daughters spent the day at a spa and the mom of 11 shared moments from their adventure on Instagram.

The R&B singer posts about Kendall often, including when he and his brother treated their mom to a pedicure in August 2024.

"I’m raising wonderful men…🥰🥰🥰 Sometimes as women that are doing 100% jobs as mothers in parenting, We can be discouraged and tired. But, then it’s days like this that make it so worth the time," she wrote underneath a video of Kendall and Ke'Riah massaging her feet.
