Family Life of Aisha Morris
Aisha Morris is yet to start her own family but she comes from a very large one. She has one brother from her parents and seven half-siblings from her father’s numerous escapades. Stevie Wonder has been married to three women but he has nine children from five different women. Aisha might be his first child but the singer was never married to her mother and they went on to have another child together.
Stevie’s first marriage was to singer-songwriter Syreeta Wright but they only lasted for two years and by 1972, Stevie was back in the market, seeking for love. It was during this time that he met Aisha’s mom when she applied to work as a secretary in the singer’s publishing company. Subsequently, they began a relationship that led to the birth of two children – Aisha and Keita born 1975 and 1977 respectively. However, marriage was not part of their union.

In 1983, Aisha got a half-brother Mumtaz Morris from her father’s relationship with Melody McCulley. Her father’s second marriage then produced Kailand and Mandla Kadjay Carl Stevland Morris.
