Early life

Kehlani Ashley Parrish was born on April 24, 1995, in Oakland, California. She has described her ethnicity as a mix of "Black, White, Native American and Filipino, Mexican." She was adopted and raised by her aunt when her mother, who had a drug addiction, served time in prison. Kehlani's father, who also had a drug addiction, died when she was a toddler. During her teenage years, she attended the Oakland School for the Arts, where she initially practiced dance, particularly ballet and modern dance.

Early in her life, Kehlani aspired to train as a dancer at the Juilliard School, but she had a knee injury in junior high, which led her to turn her attention towards singing. While living with her aunt, Kehlani was exposed almost exclusively to R&B and neo soul artists, such as Lauryn Hill, Erykah Badu and Jill Scott, whom today she describes as some of her early musical influences. When she was 14, Kehlani was recruited to join a local pop cover band, Poplyfe.

 

Personal life

In January 2016, it was confirmed that Kehlani was in a relationship with star NBA point guard Kyrie Irving. In March 2016, Canadian musician PartyNextDoor posted a picture of Kehlani's hand on Instagram, insinuating that they were in bed together. This caused a media controversy across Twitter, in which abuse was tweeted against Kehlani in hundreds of thousands of posts. This, along with the accusations that she had cheated on Irving, caused her to attempt suicide. Irving would tweet that they had broken up before the incident. Kehlani took to social media to explain that she did not cheat on Irving in a public statement to acknowledge her attempted suicide in the wake of the media attention. In 2018, Irving penned an apology to Kehlani via an Instagram post, expressing appreciation towards the singer, and she responded wishing him well.

On September 6, 2019, it was confirmed that Kehlani was dating West coast rapper YG., but after three months of dating, Kehlani and YG broke up. However, the two released a collaborative single for Valentine's Day, "Konclusions", on February 14, 2020. In May 2020, during an interview with The Breakfast Club, Kehlani said she discovered that YG was cheating on her after seeing his phone. YG apologized by filling her lawn with roses. Kehlani added that they do not speak, but remain cordial.

Kehlani announced that she was pregnant with her first child, a girl, on Instagram on October 12, 2018, with the father being Javaughn Young-White, who is her guitarist. She opened up in December 2018 about prenatal depression and how her pregnancy is harder than it might look. On March 23, 2019, Kehlani gave birth to her daughter, Adeya Nomi Parrish Young-White at home.

Kehlani is vegan. She has spoken about having experiences being a survivor of sexual assault and rape. In the summer of 2020, Kehlani bought a small farm in Simi Valley, California where she lives with her daughter.

Sexuality and gender identify

Kehlani has publicly identified as queer and pansexual. She is polyamorous. In April 2018, she clarified her sexuality on Twitter, stating, "I'm queer. Not bi, not straight. I'm attracted to women, men, REALLY attracted to queer men, non-binary people, intersex people, trans people. lil poly pansexual". She has stated that it is important for her to include female pronouns in her music.

In an April 2019 interview with DIVA, Kehlani stated she is "definitely on the non-binary scale" although preferred "she" pronouns. In December 2020, Kehlani updated her pronouns on Twitter to "she/they."

Tattoos

She got her first tattoo when she was sixteen. Some of her tattoos include Coraline,Regina "Reggie" Rocket,Mia Wallace and Vincent Vega dancing,Lauryn Hill,Frida Kahlo, a sleeve of roses, a sunflower, and face tattoos of a paper plane and four dots.

In an interview with Power 106, Kehlani discusses her attempted suicide was due to the negative media response as well as her first major heartbreak. She states that her album was therapeutic through her difficult time. During her recovery, she got a tattoo that says "perdida y encontrada" which in English translates to "lost and found".

On her travels to Australia during August 2017, Kehlani received a New Zealand Maori "Tā moko" tattoo from a New Zealand artist, whom she flew from New Zealand to Sydney, Australia to complete the tattoo. On Kehlani's Instagram post, she captioned the photo: "he piece representing my whānau/family, 6 koru representing my 4 siblings here on earth and the 2 that have transferred into the next life. 2 mangopare/hammerhead sharks representing guidance and strength through adversity and tribulation."

On January 5, 2018, Kehlani posted a photo to Instagram showing that her "woke" hand tattoo had been now covered up with a lotus flower; she stated that she felt that her "hand would speak for before even got a chance to open mouth".
