Epps was born into a big family himself: He told The New York Times that his grandmother had 11 children. The actor also told PEOPLE that his mother had eight sons and one daughter.

“My mother cried every day. A woman can't control a little boy that much," he joked. "You think they can, but it's like dealing with a little man. I think the gene pool switched up. I had all the girls that she wanted!"
