Trevor Lawrence's wife Marissa opens up about why having 3 babies might not be enough
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence and his wife Marissa welcomed their first child, daughter Shae Lynn Lawrence, on Jan. 4. While responding to a fan question on Instagram Stories Wednesday, Marissa addressed the topic of family planning and hinted they may have more children in the future.
When asked how many children she hopes to have, Marissa replied,
“Originally I said 2 or 3 but I love the baby phase I might have to have more.”
This statement came three months after the couple announced the arrival of their daughter. The news was shared in a joint Instagram post where Trevor wrote,
“Mommy and daddy love you so much!!! Thank you Jesus for our girl!!”
The couple’s relationship began in 2016 in high school in Georgia. They got engaged in 2020 and married the following year on Apr. 10. On June 27, 2024, they revealed that they were expecting their first child, posting a series of maternity photos on IG featuring their two dogs, Mr. Jones and Indi.
Trevor Lawrence ended his 2024 NFL season early due to multiple injuries. A concussion in December led to his placement on IR, plus he underwent surgery to repair an AC joint injury in his left shoulder, per NFL.com.
At present, both Trevor and Marissa are focusing on recovery and early parenthood.
