Tracey Edmonds’s role as a mother and entrepreneur
“I would’ve never imagined in a million years that our paths would cross and that we’d end up in a relationship together,” Tracey said on dating Deion Sanders. After dating for a few years, the couple got engaged in 2019. But nearly five years later they called off their engagement in 2023.
Before she met Sanders, she had a relationship with the singer Babyface for 15 years. They decided to get engaged in 2007 and tied the knot in 2008. She welcomed two sons with her ex-husband, Brandon and Dylan. No doubt she loves her sons and shares a very close bond with them.

Raising two children all alone is not easy. “As a single mom, I’ve always felt that it was so important to have honest and daily conversations about life with both of my boys. It’s just been the three of us inside my household, so they’ve grown up very close to me in every aspect of their lives,” she once said.
Brandon, her elder son, decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and study music at Loyola Marymount University, while Dylan dreams of managing a professional sports team. Tracey also has over 25 years of experience in the TV and film industry and is the CEO of Edmonds Entertainment Group Inc. Apart from this, she has also served on the Board of Governors for the Producers Guild of America (PGA) and on the Board of Trustees for the American Film Institute.
