Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Bozoma Saint John just finished up her inaugural season of the show. Throughout season 14, fans got to learn more about Bozoma, including details about her daughter, Lael Saint John. Now, viewers are curious to know more about the teen.
Who Is Bozoma Saint John’s Daughter Lael Saint John?
Lael is Boz’s daughter with her first husband, Peter Saint John, and she was born on May 29, 2009.
Boz often posts about her daughter on her social media to give fans a sneak peek into their life as mom and daughter.
“The first time I took Lael on an international trip, she was 5 months old,” Boz wrote alongside two photos of her and Lael via Instagram in May 2024. “Over the next few years, we went on lots of trips, but at 3 years old, I told her that she could pick anywhere in the world to go for her birthday, and I would provide …”
She continued, “Here we are as her 15th birthday quickly approaches, and I’m grateful to be able to give her the world. FLY, LITTLE LOVE … the world is yours!!!”
RHOBH’s Bozoma Saint John Calls Lael Saint John Her ‘Rainbow Baby’
Before she became pregnant with Lael, Boz and Peter had been expecting their first little girl, but at six-and-a-half months, the RHOBH star was diagnosed with preeclampsia. Boz tragically lost the little one they named Eve, and she’s been open about her experience with being induced and giving birth to her stillborn daughter. The couple later welcomed Lael, but in 2013, Peter was diagnosed with cancer and died just a few months later.
“Years later, Peter looked at me from his own hospital bed and told me not to worry. ‘I’ll go to heaven and take care of Eve, while you stay here and take care of Lael,'” Boz wrote in her memoir, The Urgent Life: My Story of Love, Loss and Survival.
Boz calls Lael her “rainbow baby,” a term used to describe infants who are born to parents after they’ve suffered a miscarriage or stillbirth.
“I wished on a star for my rainbow baby … and God delivered her. So every time I say her name LA- EL, it’s a Biblical reminder in Hebrew that she belongs to God… and I smile, laugh, and praise in full joy,” the Bravolebrity wrote alongside a video of herself and Lael dancing together in May 2024. “Here’s to the mothers of babies on earth and in heaven.”
Lael Saint John Asked Her Mom About Potential Siblings
During an episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 14, Lael asked her about the possibility of having younger siblings in the future.
“Would you guys want multiple kids or just, like, one more?” Lael asked Boz and her boyfriend, Keely Watson.
Keely admitted that he would like to have “multiple” children with Boz, but it “all depended” on Boz’s health.
When Boz was asked about Lael getting some siblings in the future during the RHOBH After Show, she joked, “First of all, that girl is not in charge of my womb.”
