Early Life & Family

Yasmyn Switzer was born on February 8, 2001, in the United States of America and was raised in the US state of Delaware by her mother and grandmother along with her two younger sisters. When she was younger, Yasmyn wanted to be a beauty queen. In 2013, she earned the title Junior Miss Greenbelt. She was part of the varsity soccer team during her freshman year. She was also involved in her school’s tennis program. Yasmyn obtained her high-school diploma in early 2019.

Her First Pregnancy

In the summer of 2017, Yasmyn Switzer moved in with her uncle and aunt in a town by the sea. About a month after she started living there, she got a job as a lifeguard at the beach and began socialising with the local youths. She met Laela’s biological father almost precisely a year before her birth, on June 10, 2017. They began a relationship in July, and by September, she had become aware that she was pregnant. When she spoke to him about it, he allegedly told her that he already knew as he had been trying to get her pregnant, being afraid that she would leave him.

In a YouTube video, she accepted that she had been irresponsible, especially by not taking her birth-control pills. However, she also said that she felt violated as he forced her to make the biggest decision of her life. She wanted him to share the responsibilities and face the same consequences as her, but they separated in 2017.

She gave birth to her daughter on June 11, 2018, and named her after her mother’s best friend, who had passed away due to leukaemia in 2015.

During her pregnancy, she remained in her home and was homeschooled. At some point, she and Logan met for the first time. 10 days after Laela’s birth, they met again. They started dating after Yasmyn returned to school.

Yasmyn Switzer’s Second Pregnancy

In April 2019, Yasmyn discovered that she was pregnant again. She and Logan did not plan for this child either. In the ensuing months, she left her uncle’s home and rented an apartment with Logan. In December 2019, she gave birth to her second daughter, Analia Rae.

In February 2020, she officially announced that they were moving out of their apartment to travel full time. However, due to spread of Covid19 pandemic, those plans were postponed.
