Ciara and Russell Wilson are parents to Future Zahir, Sienna Princess and Win Harrison, and currently expecting another baby
Ciara and Russell Wilson are the proud parents of three children — and they can’t wait to expand their family even further with a fourth baby on the way!
When Ciara met Wilson in 2015, she was already mom to Future Zahir, 9, from her previous relationship with rapper Future. After tying the knot the following year, the couple welcomed their daughter Sienna Princess, 6. In 2020, their family grew once again when Ciara gave birth to their youngest child, Win Harrison, 3. Three years later, the couple announced they were expecting their fourth child.
While life with three children can be hectic, the couple says that they’ve embraced the chaos of their full house, telling PEOPLE it is “non-stop entertainment.” Ciara says their “hilarious” kids completely “run the house,” — but they wouldn’t have it any other way.
“I feel like, if I could look back in a crystal ball when I was a little girl and I looked at the idea of my family and what it would be for me, it’s exactly this,” Ciara shared with GQ.
Wilson added, “Every day I come home from work and it’s late at night, it’s after film and practice and all that, and me and Ciara are together, and we just smile from ear-to-ear in the kitchen because we realize that our family is a beautiful blended family but it’s also, you know, our family. It’s us.”
With their hands full with three young children, the couple hadn’t ruled out the possibility of having more, as in March 2022 Wilson said he’s ready for another whenever Ciara is, though the “Body Party” singer says they’ve “got a little time before we get there.” The time came a year later as they prepared to welcome their fourth baby.
The family of five moved to Denver in 2022. That fall, Ciara opened up about the change of setting and shared that the kids are thriving in their new environment. “I’m so happy. I love our home,” the singer-songwriter said ahead of the CMT Artists of the Year awards. “My kids are happy in school. I love Denver — it’s pretty amazing.”
In August 2023, Ciara posed with Future and Sienna in a clothing campaign for a collaboration between the Gap and LoveShackFancy.
“This was so, so much fun,” she told PEOPLE. “They were rock stars. They were super pumped and looked so amazing in the photos.”
Here’s everything you need to know about Ciara and Russell Wilson’s children.
Future Zahir Wilburn, 9
On May 19, 2014, Ciara welcomed her first child with her then-fiancé, rapper Future. The couple named the little boy Future Zahir Wilburn after his father. Just a few months after the baby was born, the pair announced that they were ending their engagement amid reports of the rapper’s alleged infidelity.
In 2016, Ciara tied the knot with Wilson, who was thrilled to welcome the little boy into his life. He later said his stepson becoming a part of his family was “a blessing,” and he was his “joy every morning” and his “light every night.”
By Future’s sixth birthday, Ciara said she couldn’t be more proud of who her little boy was becoming. He had solidified his place as her constant red carpet companion and even busted out his best dance moves while joining his mom at a few events. Ciara also shared that he was a very happy child who loved reading, learning and knowing Jesus.
With the addition of his two younger siblings, Ciara added that Future had become a “loving” older brother with such a “big heart” — one that is particularly apparent “in his interactions with Win.” While he’s proven to be the calmest of his siblings, Ciara says he still makes sure that everyone knows he’s the oldest.
“Future is just like the kid with the wisdom who’s probably the calmest. But also is like, ‘Hey, I’m the biggest one, so keep that in perspective,’ ” Ciara told PEOPLE.
These days, Future is thriving after his family’s move to Colorado, where Wilson is the quarterback for the Denver Broncos. He may even follow in Wilson’s footsteps, recently showing off his football skills while training alongside a friend. Luckily, he has one talented coach — Ciara told PEOPLE in September 2022 that Wilson is sharing his expert tips with Future.
“He’s all about the details. He’s all about the technique,” she explained, noting that while the NFL player can be hard on his stepson while coaching, “He’s firm with love though.”
If an athletic career doesn’t work out, Future has also inherited his mom’s vocal talent. The little boy, whose laughter was featured on Ciara’s 2015 song, “I Got You,” recently hit the studio for the first time with his mom and sister to record “Treat” as part of a collaboration with Kellogg’s. On top of that, Future is also learning to play piano, which Ciara says he’s picking up incredibly fast.
“Future loves music and sports … We’ll have to see what time tells us. I think anything is possible for [my kids]. The sky is the limit and there’s no telling what direction they’ll go in,” Ciara told SheKnows.
In May 2023, Ciara and Wilson praised Future in Instagram posts marking the boy’s ninth birthday. “I’m so proud of the young boy you are becoming every day!” Ciara captioned a video that featured her son through the years. “So loving, talented, compassionate, anointed, and smart!”
“You are a Leader, Compassionate to others, an amazing big brother, and an amazing son. But most importantly you are a Child of God,” Wilson wrote in his own post.
Two months later, Wilson posted a sweet photo on Instagram of himself and Future walking together on a football field. “Best part of the day #DadLife,” he wrote in the caption. He also shared a video on his story of Future discussing his love of sports and his desire to excel in basketball, football and baseball. “If anyone can, you can!” Wilson wrote over the video.
While talking to PEOPLE in August 2023, Ciara said Future is really coming into his own.
“I feel like he’s really tapping into his inner personality. He’s very, very, very clear on what his vision is,” she said. “He’s very funny about how his hair is styled, like ‘Mom, I want the twists this week. I want these braids.’ He’s in that phase where they start to really be super aware and in tune with [themselves].”
Sienna Princess Wilson, 6
Ciara and Wilson welcomed their first child together on April 29, 2017, in Los Angeles. They named the little girl Sienna Princess Wilson, drawing inspiration from Ciara’s own middle name, Princess. In a sweet post announcing her birth, the couple shared a photo of Ciara sitting on the beach, writing a note to their daughter that said, “No matter how big the wave, we will always be your calm in the storm.”
Sienna, who the family affectionately calls “SiSi,” immediately became the princess of the household. While her parents and older brother fell in love with the new addition, Ciara admitted that adjusting to life with two little ones kept the couple’s hands “so full.”
As a toddler, Ciara says Sienna’s personality truly began to shine through. In addition to her adorable sassiness, Ciara wrote on Instagram that she shared a bond with the little girl that she could never have imagined — which has become more than evident in the mother-daughter duo’s sweet matching photos.
“Sienna just turned two … she’s two going on 20. It’s a lot of fire, sassiness and attitudes up in this house. But we are having so much fun … even dancing too,” Ciara previously shared with Access Hollywood.
The little girl’s dancing skills have only improved as she’s gotten older, and it appears she may follow in her mom’s footsteps. In June 2022, Ciara told SheKnows that Sienna “loves music” — and just might “run the world one day.” The duo is just as close as ever, with Ciara calling Sienna her “mini-me.” And as the sole female out of her siblings, she often isn’t afraid to “let her inner lioness out.”
Like her older brother, Sienna is also adjusting well to the family’s new life in Colorado. Although she prefers to play with her Barbies or take a gymnastics class instead of hitting the ski slopes, Ciara is relieved her daughter is happy in her new home.
“When we told them the news, everything was like, ‘Yeah! New team. Yeah! New school. Yeah!’ I don’t know if they really realize what’s going on sometimes. They’re excited about the new chapter,” Ciara told PEOPLE.
In October 2022, Ciara and Sienna channeled the Williams sisters for Halloween. The mother-daughter-duo replicated Venus and Serena’s ‘Got Milk?’ ad from 1999 as they donned milk mustaches, cornrow braids with white beads and black workout gear.
During an interview with PEOPLE in August 2023, Ciara described Sienna as “fearless and a bit rough.” She added: “I look at her and I see so much of me in her.”
Win Harrison Wilson, 3
Ciara and Wilson’s youngest child, Win Harrison Wilson, was born on July 23, 2020. His first name was always a top choice for Wilson, and his middle name served as a nod to Wilson’s father, Harrison. Shortly after the baby’s arrival, Ciara shared a video sweetly singing “Happy Birthday” to the newborn in the hospital room.
“My doc, Dr. Katz, who’s delivered all my babies, he’s like, ‘You guys should sing ‘Happy Birthday.’ Singing ‘Happy Birthday’ to him was really sweet. It was a great joy to be able to do it, to have enough energy to get through it and sing it,” Ciara told PEOPLE, adding that she also sang to Sienna when she was born.
Win was welcomed with open arms by his brother and sister, who immediately wanted to dote on the little boy. Thanks to his older siblings, Win was quick to be on the move, taking his first steps on the sidelines of Wilson’s football practice.
“They say the third baby kind of moves or learns the quickest because they’re trying to keep up with their siblings, and he’s on it. He’s talking really early, he’s moving, he’s a big baby and he’s really tall, you know?” Ciara shared with PEOPLE.
She added that he’s picked up a sense of “fearlessness” from his older sister and is always “looking up to” Future for guidance. He’s also inherited his dad’s “energetic” genes, with Ciara previously telling Jimmy Fallon that a then-8-month-old Win was “so energetic” and “all over the place.”
Now at age 2, Win is the “sweetest, most energetic, and funniest” little boy. “He lights up every room he walks in!” Ciara wrote in a tribute for his second birthday.
Ciara and Russell Wilson’s fourth baby on the way
Ciara announced her fourth pregnancy in August 2023 in a sweet video on her Instagram.
“You look at me like that again, we make another kid… You my heart I’m your rib” 🥰😘❤️,” she captioned the video, which shows her dancing by a pool and showing off her bump.
A source told PEOPLE that the “How We Roll” singer has been working and traveling throughout her pregnancy and has had a great amount of energy.
“She shot the ‘How We Roll’ video while pregnant. She was dancing on set all day long for a full day’s shoot. It’s astonishing how much energy she has when she’s pregnant,” the source said, noting she shot another music video when she was nine months pregnant with Win.
“She’s one of those mothers who has energy throughout her whole pregnancy. She always calls her life organized chaos — but it’s organized chaos taking it up another notch,” the insider added. “She loves being a mother so this is what she loves doing. This is what she has always wanted, and Russ too. They’ve always wanted a lot of kids.”
