UPDATED 8/2/2023 American comedian Martin Lawrence was born on April 16, 1965, and came to the limelight in Hollywood by playing the role of Maurice Warfield in the sitcom What's Happening Now!!, which aired from 1987 to 1988. He is currently revamping his career after a tumultuous lifestyle riddled with health challenges and lawsuits, and this time is ensuring that his family is fully involved, particularly his three lovely daughters, who were with him at the premiere of Bad Boys 3 in Los Angeles back in 2020. His first daughter, Jasmine Page, was born on January 15, 1996, during his 1995 marriage to Patricia Southall, who was crowned Miss Virginia USA. Unfortunately, the couple went their separate ways just two years after their marriage. Following his separation from Southall, he started a relationship with Shamika Gibbs in 1997, with whom he has two daughters, Iyanna Faith, born on November 9, 2000; and Amara Trinity, born on August 20, 2002. He and Shamicka married in 2010, only to divorce two years later. Martin Reflects On How He Instilled Moral Values In His Children Instagram In the past, when his girls were younger, The Bad Boys star has spoken about how he was able to instill moral values in his kids even though he was living the Hollywood life. In an interview with Metro UK, he stated, “I make them aware how lucky they are. I tell them I didn’t grow up like they are. I tell them things were different for me and say, ‘You’ve got it good, switch off some of these lights; I’ve got to pay the electricity bill.' Every now and then I give them something for their wallet — if they do something they’re supposed to. If they don’t do what they’re supposed to, I take something away from them. In my younger daughter’s case, I take a doll away and she gets really upset or I take her off the computer — she really hates that.” RELATED: Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Is Powerless Against Three People: Meet His Daughters Jasmine Page Lawrence Instagram She graduated from Duke University and is the most famous of all of Martin's children.

Speaking about the lessons she learned on the show in an interview with IOL, she said, “My biggest takeaway would be to lean into what is uncomfortable and try something new. You don’t really know what you are capable of until you test yourself, and these are some of the most special and memorable times."
