How Many Kids Does Kenan Thompson Have?
Kenan Thompson Plays a Dad in His New Sitcom, but Did You Know He Has 2 Kids?
Comedian Kenan Thompson has been a household name for most '90s kids ever since he starred in the Nickelodeon's All That and the beloved film, Goodburger — and now he's got two kids of his own!
The longest-tenured cast member in Saturday Night Live history — he appeared in his first episode in 2003! — Kenan has been serving up laugh after laugh for decades. His new sitcom on NBC, aptly called Kenan, follows a widowed father who's trying this best to raise his two daughters with a little help from some pretty quirky friends. While Kenan isn't a widow IRL — he married his wife, Christina Evangeline, at an aquarium in Atlanta in 2011 — he does, in fact, have two adorable daughters, Georgia and Gianna.
While speaking with People in 2020, Kenan said that the transition to fatherhood was swift, to say the least. "I think the biggest wake-up call is how immediate it is," he said. "One day you're not a dad and then the next moment you are. You're just a dad from that point on. And definitely, my coolness just got sucked right out of me. I didn't know . . . I didn't even feel it, but I just immediately started wearing black socks and shorts and just being really corny at stores and over-asking questions about items that are super obvious and in my face."
