‘Thank You, Jesus for Our Supernatural Birth’: Supermodel Ashely Graham Welcomes Twins
By Movieguide® Contributor
Ashley Graham and her husband, Justin Ervin, are now a family of five!
The couple welcomed twin boys earlier this year, and the couple recently revealed the biblical inspiration behind their names.
“Malachi & Roman,” Graham captioned a photo of her with her babies. “My boys have been the greatest teachers and biggest reminders that I can do hard things. this has not been easy, but it’s so worth it. still can’t believe I have 3 children.”
The model first shared the news of the twins’ birth in an Instagram story, writing, “Justin and I are so excited that our baby boys are here. They were born early this morning at home and are happy and healthy.”
“I’m taking some time to heal up and connect with my husband and three boys,” Graham continued. “But I truly cannot wait to share more with you all. Much love, AG.”
Ervin also shared the news to his Instagram and thanked Jesus for his provision.
“Thank you, Jesus for our supernatural birth! Thank you all for your prayers and support,” he said.
Big brother Isaac also welcomed Malachi and Roman—all three boys’ names reference books of the Bible.
Movieguide® previously reported:
Ervin joined his wife on her podcast, Pretty Big Deal, and explained the reason behind their son’s first name.
“My sister Kia and I would have discussions about, ‘Oh, one day, when we have kids … ‘” Ervin explained of picking out the name Issac in middle school. “I brainstormed my own name for my future son, and I knew it was gonna be Isaac.”
The second name, Menelik, was inspired by a trip to Ethiopia. While traveling there, they learned Ethiopia’s first emperor was named Menelik, which means “son of the wise.” The emperor was the son of the Queen of Sheba and King Solomon.
Ervin said, “Everything was pointing to legacy. Whether it’s Isaac, with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, or Menelik being royal, African roots.”
Then the couple described how Giovanni is significant to their family.
Both Graham and Ervin’s grandfathers’ names are John, and the founder of the church where Ervin’s parents were “saved and baptized” is named John.
