Lane and Layla might have attracted a lot of attention for their divorce in the past, but recently, the former couple has been generating talk about reconciling. This all started when Lane Kiffin commented on his ex-wife’s Instagram birthday post for their daughter.

Have an interesting take?

While many fans see it as a reason to live close to their daughter Landry, many speculate it as a sign of their possible reconciliation, and the news totally broke the internet. Regardless of the reason for Layla’s move, what truly captured attention was their daughter Presley’s remarkable accomplishment—a moment that serves as a reminder that some triumphs are even more gratifying when celebrated together as a family.

Kiffin’s 18-year-old daughter, Presley, is now a USC Trojan volleyball player. Presley’s excitement was contagious on Instagram, where she posted, “Almost time,” while rocking the iconic Trojan #1 jersey. The last slide featured a heartwarming family moment with her siblings, Knox and Landry. Seeing his daughter play for USC, the team he used to coach, definitely brought a smile to Lane Kiffin’s face. It’s gotta feel good, even after things ended kinda rocky there way back in 2013. He simply commented, “So proud,” on Presley’s post. This is definitely a moment for celebration!

Lane Kiffin and Layla have been doing a great job co-parenting since their divorce back in 2016. Presley, who lives with her mom and brother Knox in Southern California, has been a star volleyball player at Mater Dei High School. She even won ‘Player of the Game’ five times! This spring, she announced she’d be joining the USC Trojans.

However, this is the first time Kiffin has made such remarks, specifically using the hashtag #ComeToTheSip, which has sparked curiosity about a possible reconciliation. Despite no official confirmation from either side, Kiffin’s comments have given fans a glimmer of hope.

Despite the ups and downs in their relationship, one thing that always remained constant was their love and support for their kids. Whether supporting them with their studies or life decisions, Kiffin and Layla have always stood by their sides. His kids have definitely had an impact on where he’s ended up coaching.

Lane Kiffin’s kids have always played a big role in his life. When Presley was born in 2007, it was a huge moment for him. And that’s the time he became the youngest NFL head coach with the Oakland Raiders, with all eyes on him. Even now, with Presley making a name for herself, Lane Kiffin’s right there supporting her. You know, despite all the ups and downs he’s had with the Trojans, he always makes time for his family. He’s a proud dad, especially when it comes to his daughter, the USC volleyball star.

Moreover, the reason behind Lane Kiffin’s inclination towards staying in Oxford is because of his elder daughter Landry, who convinced him to stay back in Oxford just to spend more time with her father. According to ESPN’s analyst Chris Low, Kiffin was supposed to join the Auburn team back in the year 2022. But it was Landry who convinced him to stay back. No wonder it was for the best, as he’s now helping build one of the SEC’s strongest and most competitive programs.

Meanwhile, as Presley and Landry are making big moves in their careers, Lane Kiffin’s youngest child, Knox Kiffin, is already taking up the charge to carry forward the family legacy from such a young age. Knox is among the most talented quarterback prospects for the class of 2028. Lane Kiffin’s dedication to his children, even in the face of challenges, positions him as not only a proud father but also a dependable presence for them.
