About Sanya Richards-Ross' family

The 36-year-old has been married to former New York Giants player Aaron Ross since 2010. The lovebirds met during college at UT.

Their wedding was showcased on an episode of WeTV's Platinum Weddings. The duo share son Aaron Jermaine Ross II, who was born in 2017.

Sanya often documents the family's journey on her social media accounts. Her stint with Bravo will probably help fans get to know them better.

Richards-Ross starred on WeTV's Sanya's Glam and Gold in 2013. The six-episode series documented her life as a professional track and field star and her marriage to fellow athlete Aaron Ross.

As a devout Christian, Sanya went through serious depression after she had to terminate a pregnancy one day before leaving for the 2008 Olympics. Speaking on the incident, the athlete shared:

"I made a decision that broke me, and one from which I would not immediately heal from. Abortion would now forever be a part of my life. A scarlet letter I never thought I'd wear."

Richards-Ross is the founder of MommiNation, a blog focused on offering support, inspiration, and empowerment to black mothers.
