"I always felt like there were two divergent paths for me to follow. One led to New York City, where I would live my best Carrie Bradshaw life, fiercely independent. The other led to a partner I really trusted, and a large family to structure my life around. Soon after I met my husband, Demario Davis, I realized I was moving along the second path."
"I'm not having any more. After our fifth child, I had my first miscarriage. I thought that was a sign that my body was done, but soon after, I got pregnant again. It was a difficult pregnancy, and the delivery was my first C-section. My body has had enough after being pregnant or nursing for nearly 12 years. All our kids have double first names, like Bailey-Grace, our oldest."
Tamela Gill Davis has a graduate degree in education and homeschools her six children. She married Demario Davis in 2012 after he asked her to date with the intention of marriage and was drafted into the NFL. Demario plays linebacker for the New Orleans Saints, and the family typically eats dinner together about four nights a week during football season. Tamela wanted a large family and chose to have six children, favoring double first names for each child. She experienced a miscarriage after the fifth child and a difficult pregnancy and C-section for the sixth, and has decided not to have more children.
