Fantasia Barrino's 3 Children: All About Zion, Dallas and Keziah

Fantasia Barrino wants to change generational patterns with her three children, Zion, Dallas and Keziah.

The season 3 American Idol winner had her first daughter, Zion, with Brandel Shouse in 2001. Ten years later, she welcomed a son, Dallas, with Antwaun Cook. Fantasia's youngest child, daughter Keziah, was born in 2021 to her and her husband, Kendall Taylor.

The Color Purple star has spoken openly about achieving one of her main dreams of stable love by marrying Kendall in July 2015 and welcoming daughter Keziah on May 23, 2021, after a “three-year journey” with fertility struggles.

Fantasia has also been open about her parenting style and what she hopes her kids learn from her and Kendall.

"I want to break generational curses,” she told PEOPLE of raising her kids in April 2023. “When it comes to my family, my girls, my children, I want to show them that no matter what [you’ve] been through, you can always get back and go after it again, and that's what I am doing.”

Here's everything to know about Fantasia Barrino’s three kids.

Zion Quari Barrino, 22

Fantasia had her first and only child with Brandel Shouse, daughter Zion Quari Barrino, when she was 17 years old.

Zion has been involved in her mom's career — as a teenager, she starred in her mom's 2017 music video for “When I Met You” as a younger version of Fantasia.

The actress' firstborn went on to create her own makeup line, Quari Beauty, in December 2022. Her mother supported her at the cosmetics launch, hugging Zion when she broke down in tears while thanking her guests, per a sweet YouTube clip.

“She is her mother’s child!” Fantasia exclaimed before asking the DJ to kick off some music.

The Life Is Not a Fairytale star also posted a photo of the mother-daughter duo on Instagram to celebrate her daughter's business.

“She was my motivation to go for all I did. She was my biggest investor. Now I’ll invest back into her,” Fantasia wrote in the caption of her daughter.

The same month, Zion followed in her mother’s acting footsteps, working on an unnamed film project with rapper David Banner. Fantasia shared a photo on Instagram of the pair together, writing, “Thanks @davidbanner for taking care of my Baby on her First Movie Set.”

Dallas Xavier Barrino, 12

On Dec. 13, 2011, Fantasia welcomed her son, Dallas Xavier Barrino, with runner Antwaun Cook.

“I feel so blessed that my son Dallas Xavier was born healthy, and is a wonderful new addition to our family,” Fantasia told PEOPLE at the time.

Dallas' dad has bragged about his good grades. Antwaun shared a photo on Instagram of his son holding up an honor roll certificate in February 2022. “I'm already super proud of my boy but when he got in my car today waiving the honor roll badge of fame I got more excited than him,” the dad wrote in the caption.

Both Fantasia and Antwaun have shared sweet birthday tributes to their son over the years, too, giving some insight into his personality.

"This Kid is the Best and Today he turns 11 Years Old. I’ve never have any problems of my Lil Gamer so we built A Game Room for this Dude," the mom of three wrote on Instagram in 2022. "Dallas Xavier we Love You."

Antwaun shared a similar message for his son's 11th birthday, writing, “You're so creative, loving, handsome, funny or corny depending on the day. Unconditionally, I love you with all my heart.”

Keziah London Taylor, 3

Fantasia and her husband Kendall welcomed Keziah London Taylor on May 23, 2021, after a three-year-long fertility struggle that the singer shared with Tamron Hall.

Fantasia and Kendall tried to get pregnant for a few years before taking a break and removing the pressure to conceive. "I kid you not, I forgot about it," the actress said in 2020. "And then I woke up one night, and I was just like, 'Something's different.' " A pregnancy test confirmed Fantasia's feeling that she was expecting.

Keziah was born “a little too early” according to an Instagram post Fantasia shared on May 26, 2021, and she was placed in neonatal intensive care immediately following her birth. Fantasia later spoke to PEOPLE about how difficult it was for her to be away from her new baby girl.

"I couldn't take her home with me and I couldn't protect her and I couldn't hold her every day — that was hard for me," she said in 2023. “[It was] the hardest thing I think I ever went through.”

Keziah, whom Fantasia has called a "little spicy Gemini,” recovered roughly a month later, arriving home from the hospital with the singer in June 2021. "My Baby went from the NICU Baby to this Four Month Old Healthy Baby 🤗🙏🏾 ," the reality star celebrated in a September 2021 Instagram update.

“Now to look at her telling us what to do, it's even more fire for me to keep on moving,” Fantasia told PEOPLE in 2023. “She's a constant reminder to me and my husband that everything is going to be OK because she fought through that NICU. She's a tough cookie and is still running the house."

Keziah attended her first day of school in September 2023, as seen in an Instagram post shared on the toddler’s account.
