Tracy Morgan's Children: Meet the Star's 4 Kids and Family

Tracy Morgan is extremely serious about his career as a comedian, and when it comes to fatherhood, he doesn’t joke around either. The 30 Rock star is all about his role as a dad, which means he puts his kids, Gitrid, Malcolm, Tracy Jr. and Maven, at the top of his priority list.

Tracy became the father of his children through his two marriages. The former Last O.G. star experienced parenthood for the first time alongside Sabina Morgan in 1986 when they welcomed their eldest son, Gitrid. The following year in 1987, they tied the knot. Tracy and Sabina’s second son, Malcolm, arrived in 1988, followed by their youngest, Tracy Jr., in 1992.

The Emmy nominee and Sabina raised their kids together over the next decade, however, it didn’t last for the two. The former lovebirds ultimately split in 2001, and eight years later, the Cop Out actor filed for divorce from his high school sweetheart. “Basically, they were divorced without the paperwork,” a source told New York Daily News at the time.

Following their split, Tracy focused on fatherhood, and during that time, he enjoyed plenty of Hollywood outings with his family. For instance, Tracy was all smiles alongside his children as they attended the premiere of The Haunted Mansion in November 2003.

The Saturday Night Live personality also stepped out with his kids at the premiere of Are We There Yet? in January 2005. Tracy wrapped his arms around his boys as they smiled for photos. Four months later in May, the doting dad turned the red carpet premiere of The Longest Yard into a family affair.

After years of dating multiple “girlfriends,” the insider told the outlet, Tracy found love with his second spouse, Megan Wollover, with whom he announced his engagement in 2011. Before the Tracy Morgan Show alum and the actress walked down the aisle, though, they welcomed their daughter, Maven, in 2013.

Tracy and Megan enjoyed five years of marriage, including tons of memories with their little girl, but the couple ultimately split in July 2020. “Sadly, Megan and I are filing for divorce,” the actor’s spokesman told The Hollywood Reporter in a statement. “This is a challenging time for all involved, so I ask that you please respect our privacy.”

Gitrid Morgan

Tracy’s first child was born in 1986. When he was younger, Gitrid appeared with his dad plenty of times on the red carpet. That has changed, though, as Gitrid seemingly slipped out of the spotlight. Though it’s unclear what the star’s eldest son is up to today, Tracy has given insight into how he raised his children.

“I deal with my sons like young men. If they have a problem with something, they come to me,” he once said, according to Fatherly. “I am the type of dad that will drop everything I am doing for them, and always tell them to talk to me about it.”

Malcolm Morgan

The Little Man actor’s second child arrived in 1988. Similar to his older brother, Malcolm has managed to stay out of the public eye for the most part despite embracing his dad’s fame in his younger years.

It’s easy to imagine Malcolm shares a great relationship with his dad, though, considering Tracy stressed the importance of separating his Hollywood career from his life with his kids. “I have the person at home … the person who has his privacy too,” he has said. “Michael Jackson didn’t do the moonwalk in his kitchen.”

Tracy Morgan Jr.

Tracy’s third child — who was born in 1992 — is the only one of his kids who followed in his footsteps. Per IMDb, Tracy Jr. has one acting credit in The Tracy Morgan Show in 2004.

In 2012, he appeared alongside his dad on an episode of Tanked. He was also featured as a guest on the Animal Planet series six years later in 2018. That same year, he stood by his dad’s side as Tracy received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Maven Sonae Morgan

Tracy welcomed his first daughter and youngest child on July 2, 2013. At the time, the TV star’s rep told People his little bundle of joy named Maven arrived weighing 7 pounds, 3 ounces. She also measured 19.59 inches long.

Though she’s still young, Maven has already made her red carpet debut. In 2015, she attended the 67th Primetime Emmy Awards. Maven also posed for photos at the premiere of Fist Fight in 2017, followed by her dad’s induction ceremony on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2018.

Most recently, she’s been making appearances on her dad’s Instagram. While celebrating Thanksgiving in November 2020, Tracy shared the sweetest pic of the father-daughter duo cuddling on the couch. “Happy holidays from me and Maven!!!” he wrote.
