How many kids does Aaron Donald have?

Aaron Donald is a father of three children, Jaeda Donald, Aaron Donald Jr, and Aaron Donald. Donald had his first two children from an earlier relationship with Jaelynn Blakey. The couple were high school sweethearts but ended their relationship around 2019. The couple are still friends and co-parent their two children. His oldest, daughter Jaeda is eight years old as of 2024 and she, along with Aaron Jr., lives in Pittsburgh. Aaric, born in September 2021 resides in Southern California with Donald and his wife, Erica.

The distance between him and his two oldest children has been a significant challenge for Donald, causing him to reflect deeply on his priorities. Donald has always emphasized that his children come first, and the separation from Jaeda and Aaron Jr. has weighed heavily on him, influencing his thoughts on possibly retiring from football.

After Donald broke up with Jaelynn, he thereafter met Erica. He is currently married to Erica and they share a child named Aaric Donald. Aaric is a combination of Aaron's and Erica’s names. The couple welcomed their first child together in September of 2021. It is also reported that the couple are expecting their second child together.
