Kimora Lee Simmons and Her 5 Kids Shine in Fabulous Photos as She Returns 'Back in the Fab Lane' Tonight

Kimora Lee Simmons has worn many roles with grace and style: fashion trailblazer, innovative designer, entrepreneur, reality TV personality, and most importantly, mother. She shares her life with her five children, each with a unique story.

With ex-husband Russell Simmons, she welcomed two daughters, Ming Lee (25) and Aoki Lee (23). In May 2009, she had her first son, Kenzo Lee, with Oscar-nominated actor Djimon Hounsou. Later, on April 10, 2015, she added Wolfe Lee to the family, whose father is Tim Leissner. Five years after that, Kimora expanded her family through adoption with Gary Lee and also has a "bonus son" named Jaden, mentioned in the trailer for her new show, Back in the Fab Lane.

Despite her glamorous career, Kimora has openly discussed the challenges of raising five children as a single mother. In a 2023 interview with PEOPLE, she said, "I'm a single mom of five kids and I know how hard it can be... I know how that feels like to raise your kids and to get up every day and only care about them. It doesn't matter if you're rich and famous or a singerat the end of the day, you're a mom, cousin, aunt, or family member trying to make everything come together."

Her reality TV return comes with the premiere of Back in the Fab Lane on E! at 10 pm ET, where fans can catch glimpses of her life with her children. Highlights from her social media show heartwarming family moments: for Kenzos birthday in June, she shared a photo of him towering over her; she and Ming Lee posed in matching outfits for a mirror selfie; and she proudly celebrated her sons graduations from middle school, sharing their excitement for attending top high schools for basketball and football.

Kimora's love and pride for her children are evident in every milestone. She celebrated Garys birthday in 2023, and the family donned matching pajamas for Christmas. Aoki Lee, at just 20 years old, graduated from Harvard with a double major, prompting an emotional post from Kimora praising her daughters accomplishments. She wrote about balancing Aokis academic success with a full-time modeling career, emphasizing the hard work and dedication required.

The family also enjoys outdoor and cultural activities together. They were photographed on a relaxing beach walk for Earth Day 2022, traveled to Japan, and celebrated Easter with joyful activities. Kimora continues to nurture her childrens creativity, sharing moments of Wolfe Lees artwork dedicated to her.

Kimora and her daughters have a strong bond, often showing off matching looks for Halloween and holiday celebrations. Beyond family life, Kimora and her children have engaged in charitable activities, including a 2018 trip to Greece with the non-profit The Unmentionables. She has also participated in global initiatives like speaking at the UN Women's Global Innovation Coalition for Change in September 2018, with her daughters supporting her every step of the way.

Kimora Lee Simmons remains a symbol of elegance, motherhood, and dedication, balancing her iconic public life with the private joys and challenges of raising a family.
