By February 2024, the couple announced they were expecting their first child together during a surprise phone call Chris made to The Breakfast Club to celebrate Jess’s 32nd birthday.
In March 2024, the comedian spoke on The Pivot Podcast about her desire for a lasting partnership with Chris and her hopes of growing her family after having her son Ash at the age of 19 with ex-boyfriend Rome. Jess expressed her intent to marry Chris, stating, “He’s my best friend, that’s my guy. That’s my safe space.”
Their daughter, Marley Sky Moore Tolliver, was born in August 2024, and upon returning to The Breakfast Club from maternity leave, Jess began adjusting to new dynamics within the team, sharing the challenges she has faced. “We supposed to be a team,” she remarked (via Vibe).
