The 22-year-old former Colorado Boulder star provided a major update on his personal life and revealed on a video on YouTube with Leanna that after their marriage in May, Leanna has given birth to a baby boy.

Titled, 'Dear son..', the three-minute-long video captured moments from the couple's life, starting with when Leanna found out that she was pregnant and their other interactions leading to the birth of their son. The video also has snaps of Leanna in the hospital undergoing childbirth.

Here's the video:

The video also has footage from the day of the 2025 NFL draft. As Hunter was going to the draft, he was having conversation with Leanna, where they talked about their then-unborn child. "We're going to find out where Daddy's going to be," Leanna says. Hunter adds: “And where you're going to grow up.”

Travis Hunter Cheating Rumors

The major family update comes days after false cheating rumors surfaced against Travis Hunter. It all started with a video Lenna Lenee posted on TikTok, where she can be seen crying. The rumor became widespread as many skipped the caption, which clearly stated that the video was taken in December 2024 and explained why she was crying.

"I wish I could go back and hug December me, because oh baby, God was about to change your heart in the most important and beautiful way," the caption stated. "I don't even recognize the girl anymore."

"The amount you can grown and develop in just 6 months of devoting your life to Jesus and getting away from the shackles of the world and social media is truly astounding. I wish the peace I found within Jesus on everyone who reads this. Your identity in him matters, not how people choose to perceive you."

Hunter married Leanna Lenee, his longtime girlfriend, on May 24. The couple, who began dating in high school in Georgia, exchanged vows at The Barn at Faith Farms in Athens, Tennessee.

Their wedding was lavish, featuring approximately 250 guests, including Hunter’s father, Travis Hunter Sr., who was granted special permission to attend despite being under community control for gun and drug offenses.
