Ciara has been popping out babies, it seems like every year, and we love that for her. According to her latest chat with PEOPLE, she ain’t done yet. In an exclusive interview at the 2024 Baby2Baby Gala held on Saturday, November 9, in Beverly Hills, the popular singer opened up about motherhood and the hectic schedule she maintains due to her four children.
She admits that the Wilson house is all the way turned up. “I have a kid on every corner. Oh my Lord, pray for me sometimes,” Ciara shared. The “Goodies” singer and Russell Wilson, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback, are parents to three children: Sienna, 7; Win, 4; and Amora, 10 months. Additionally, Ciara has a 10-year-old son, Future, from her previous relationship with rapper Future.
In the midst of the prevailing chaos, the Grammy-winning singer surprisingly expressed her openness to having a fifth child, albeit not immediately. “Russ keeps walking around going like this, like, ‘Cinco.’ And I’m like, ‘High five, I love you too.’ I mean, listen, I think we’ll make it to five, but this mom needs a little time. Just a little bit.”
In July, the couple, who wed in 2016, commemorated their eighth wedding anniversary. To honor the occasion, Wilson compiled a sentimental video showcasing some of the couple’s most romantic moments, which she subsequently shared on Instagram.

During an episode of the I Am Athlete podcast, Wilson talked about how he sees fatherhood as a direct reflection of what God has done for them. He said, “Unconditional love, to be able to love us in the midst of it all, to be able to be there for us, to be able to provide, to be able to care for us, to be able to show up for us every day. Not just physically but also mentally and spiritually.”
An insider described Ciara as a mother with remarkable energy during her pregnancies. They noted that Ciara refers to her life as “organized chaos,” but she takes it to a higher level. The bright and shiny couple has always desired a large family, and being a mother is something she loves and has always wanted. You can feel the love this family has for one another. Let’s learn more about the beautiful bunch.
Meet Ciara and Russell Wilson’s 4 Kids:
Future Zahir, 10
Ciara and her ex-fiancé Future welcomed their son Future Zahir in May 2014. On Mother’s Day 2020, the rapper expressed gratitude to Ciara in a heartfelt message, writing, “Baby Future is Life, Preciate u.” Young Future currently resides with his mother, stepfather Russell Wilson, and his three younger siblings.
In 2022, Ciara gushed over her “loving” son, telling PEOPLE, “Future is just like the kid with the wisdom who’s probably the calmest but also is like, ‘Hey, I’m the biggest one, so keep that in perspective.’” In addition to showcasing his dance moves with his mother on the red carpet, Future Zahir has been receiving top-notch football guidance from his stepfather, who can be a demanding coach. Ciara remarked about Wilson in 2022, “He disciplines with love.” Future Zahir has also inherited his parents’ musical talent, having collaborated with his mother and sister on the song “Treat,” a partnership with Kellogg’s.

Future’s relationship with Russell is one of fairytales. The proud father reminisced about meeting his stepson for the first time as an infant on the I Am Athlete podcast. “He crawled into my lap, and I just knew, this is going to be my responsibility,” he shared. “I remember leaving that night, and God spoke to me, saying, ‘Raising this child is your calling.’ I prayed, asking, ‘Are you sure this is what you want me to do?’ And He replied, ‘Yes, this is meant for you.'”
For Wilson, becoming a stepdad was a special “opportunity,” especially once he realized that Ciara was “the one” for him. He embraced the role wholeheartedly.
Sienna Princess, 7
On April 29, 2017, in Los Angeles, Ciara and Russell celebrated the birth of their first child together, a 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 girl named Sienna Princess Wilson. The couple drew inspiration for their daughter’s middle name from Ciara’s own middle name, Princess. In a sweet post announcing her birth, the couple shared a photo of Ciara sitting on the beach, writing a note to their daughter that said, “No matter how big the wave, we will always be your calm in the storm.”

As a toddler, Sienna, whom Ciara affectionately refers to as “SiSi,” truly started to display her unique personality. Ciara shared on Instagram that beyond Sienna’s adorable sassiness, they shared an unanticipated bond that has become undeniable, evident in their adorable matching photos.
Sienna quickly assumed the role of a devoted guardian to her younger brother, Win, once she was no longer the 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢. “She thinks that he’s her 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 sometimes, especially when he was smaller, so that’s really cute.” The loving mother is eager to emphasize that her daughter, who resembles her in many ways, is not hesitant to express her fierce and independent nature as the only female among the children.

This year, when the mommy mogul asked SiSi who she wanted to be for Halloween, 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 girl proudly said CiCi. “I can’t tell you how much this means. My 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 girl went on tour with me and by the end she had every detail locked!” she continued in her caption. “Lil SiSi as Big CiCi. My sweet Sienna Princess Wilson 🥰🖤🎤”
Win Harrison, 4
Born on July 23, 2020, Ciara and Wilson welcomed their youngest son, Win Harrison Wilson, into the world. The name Win was Wilson’s top choice, while the middle name served as a tribute to Wilson’s father, Harrison. Shortly after Win’s birth, a heartwarming video emerged of Ciara serenading her newborn with “Happy Birthday” in their hospital room.
Dr. Katz, Ciara’s trusted doctor, who had delivered all her children, suggested that they sing “Happy Birthday” to the new 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢. The act of singing brought great joy to Ciara, who mustered the energy to complete the song despite her postpartum state. Ciara recalled a similar experience with her daughter, Sienna, when she was born.
Win was warmly embraced by his older siblings, who eagerly showered him with love and attention. Thanks to their guidance, Win’s development accelerated, and he soon reached a significant milestone by taking his first steps on the sidelines of Wilson’s football practice.

According to Ciara, in an interview with PEOPLE, she attributes Win’s rapid development to his desire to keep up with his siblings, especially his older sister, from whom he has inherited a sense of fearlessness. Win also appears to have inherited his father’s energetic nature, as previously shared by Ciara on Jimmy Fallon’s show when he was only eight months old.
Win continues to impress with his sweet, energetic, and humorous personality. His presence brings joy to every room he enters, as described by Ciara in a heartfelt tribute on his second birthday.
