Deavan Clegg, who appeared on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, recently provided updates about her children, daughter Drascilla and son Taeyang, on Instagram. Deavan was featured on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 1 with her husband, Jihoon Lee, from South Korea. The couple met through an international dating app and bonded despite not speaking each other’s language. Jihoon later traveled to the United States to meet Deavan for the first time, and they soon became pregnant. Their son, Taeyang, was born on April 11, 2019.
In 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 2, Deavan moved to South Korea with her daughter and son to marry Jihoon. The couple got married despite Jihoon’s struggles to find stable employment and provide for his family. After Jihoon failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father and provider, Deavan returned to the United States. A few months later, she introduced her new boyfriend, Topher Park, whom she met while traveling to South Korea. In November 2022, Topher and Deavan got engaged after dating for about three years.
How Many Children Does Deavan Have?
Deavan Has Three Children In 2024
Deavan was very young when she welcomed her first child, Drascilla. At the time, she was dating her teenage boyfriend, whom she referred to as Tom. Deavan was only 17 when she met him. She liked his nice nature and started living with him. Unfortunately, he turned out to be an abusive person. The 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way cast member got pregnant at the tail end of their relationship with her ex-boyfriend. She got out of the relationship and decided to keep her baby girl, Drascilla.
Deavan welcomed her second child, Taeyang, after she debuted in 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way. She got pregnant with her former husband, Jihoon, who seemed like a nice Korean guy at the time. Unfortunately, Jihoon disappointed Deavan by showing a lack of concern for her and their child. His inability to provide for the family pushed the single mom to leave him and return to Utah. Deavan began dating Korean boyfriend Topher soon after breaking up with Jihoon. She welcomed her third child with him in October 2022.
Why Did Deavan Call Her Daughter, Drascilla, A “Wild Child?”
Deavan’s Daughter Took Off Running On The Show
Deavan has shared her opinions of her kids over the years. In 2020, she infamously called her daughter, Drascilla, a “wild child.”She wanted to tell fans that Drascilla was her twin. One of the episodes even showed the little one running away, scaring all her family members. Deavan called her daughter a wild child, probably because she was rambunctious at that age. The single mom wanted 90 Day Fiancé fans to know that her baby wasn’t easy to control, which is completely understandable considering how young she was at the time.
Taeyang Was Diagnosed With Leukemia In 2022
Taeyang Could Officially Be Cancer-Free In 2024
Deavan faced a heartbreaking situation in May 2022 when her son was diagnosed with B-cell acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. At the time, he was only three years old and too young to handle such a circumstance. Deavan took her Instagram and shared all about his diagnosis. She asked fans to help her and started a GoFundMe to raise $50,000 for his treatment. While people initially didn’t trust Deavan, they eventually realized her situation was genuine. They helped her raise 43k as of 2024, ensuring Taeyang gets the care he needs.
Deavan Clegg seems much happier since her last appearance on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way. It looks like she now has the support she always needed.
Hopefully, Taeyang will be officially cancer-free in August 2024.

When Deavan first started dating Topher, she was accused of cheating on Jihoon.

Thankfully, it looks like Deavan has finally found someone who respects her and cares for her children as much as she does. She has been with Topher since her split from Jihoon and has spent many memorable moments with him in the past four years.
