Kerry Washington corrects Craig Melvin that she is a 'mother of three' not two, referring to her 12-year-old stepdaughter
The confusion happened on the 'Today' show when Washington was promoting her new Broadway play 'American Son'
Actress Kerry Washington didn't realize the traction her correction to journalist Craig Melvin about the number of children she had when he referred to her as a "mother of two" would get, but it certainly piqued the iterest of many on social media.
While appearing on the 'Today' show in order to promote her new Broadway play 'American Son', the 41-year-old said, "I am a mother of three" when Craig called her "a mother of two". Washington shares two children, 2-year-old Caleb Kelechi and 4-year-old Isabelle Amarachi, with her husband Nnamdi Asomugha. Kerry is a stepmother to Nnamdi's 12-year-old daughter, whom he had in a previous relationship.
