The baby girl’s mother (Geena), born in 1969, was 46 years old then. When her babies (twins), born in 1971, arrived she had already turned 48. The star has admitted that she’s glad she held out and had children in her later life, stating that she had grown a lot since childhood. Female First
That’s the family in one sentence. Much of it is, on a grander scheme, less interesting and frankly more strange: they were hardly seen, yet these kids, who made few and mostly trivial movie appearances actually managed to change Hollywood’s perception of women on screen.
How many children do Geena Davis have and what is their age?
Do Geena Davis have any kids? Yes, she has three kids with her former husband, Reza Jarrahy.They have: a daughter named Alizeh (b. 10 April 2002); and twin sons: Kaiis and Kian, born 6 May 2004. I will make her kids 24, and my twin boys 22 at the end of September 2026.Yahoo!KidsCo
| Child | Born | Age (Sept 2026) | Birth order |
| Alizeh Keshvar | April 10, 2002 | 24 | First |
| Kaiis Steven | May 6, 2004 | 22 | Second (twin) |
| Kian William | May 6, 2004 | 22 | Third (twin) |
The twins arrived 26 days early. They are fraternal, so no, they don’t look identical, whatever a red-carpet photo suggests. IMDb
Why did she wait so long?
She isn’t fully sure herself. She told The Guardian she felt lucky to have had her kids late because she changed so much, and admitted she can’t say why she waited that long, since she had never tried before. In an October 2022 TV interview she gave a tidier version: she wanted to wait, hoping she could still have kids, on the theory that she’d be more evolved the longer she waited. Hollywood LifeKidsCo
Note the mix of a plan and a shrug. That’s more honest than the polished “I was focused on my career” line celebrity profiles usually hand out.
The result was a full house, fast. Alizeh was two when the twins were born, so Davis had three kids under three at home. She has said she was “pretty daunted” by that. Yahoo!Female First
What is Alizeh Davis doing now?
Studying music and film, as of the last public word.
Alizeh, as mentioned on her LinkedIn profile through People in 2024, is currently enrolled at the University of Southern California for her Bachelor’s degree in Music Industry & Cinematic Arts. She has also interned at a few companies, including MPATH Music. Yahoo!MSN
That’s the whole documented résumé. Anything more specific, like where she lives or what job she holds, appears only on sites that don’t cite where they got it. Her Instagram is followers-only. Whether she has graduated is unconfirmed. Given the degree timeline it’s plausible, but no source I found says so. Theintelligencemagazine
Davis has said she tries to empower her daughter, and describes doing it as the only girl of the three. Hollywood Life
What are the twins, Kaiis and Kian, doing today?
Both are in their early twenties and, per LinkedIn as relayed by media, both have been in college.
Kaiis is reported to study Environmental Studies at the University of Washington. Amomama, in an earlier piece, said only that he attends the University of Washington and hadn’t specified his studies. So treat the major as reported, not confirmed. He’s also the more active of the brothers online. Meet Alizeh, Kaiis, and Kian William Jarrahy, Geena Davis’ children – Briefly.co.za +2
Kian joined classes at Santa Monica College in 2022 with the expectation that he would graduate in 2026. This was predicted on LinkedIn rather than reporting actual graduation. He’s also the twin you’ll most often see with his mother. He posed with her at the 2022 Emmys, and at the 2023 Bentonville Film Festival, and again at its June 2025 awards.

Here’s a bit of a boys-will-be-boys, that’s boys as boys will be, boys kind of story. About sex, you could guess by now, obviously. When the twins were four, they saw a squirrel in the park and Davis called her “she.” “How did you know it was a girl?” the boys asked.Her verdict on herself: she’d already failed. The way she tells it is worth reading in its entirety from the interview as it is much more fun to hear it told by her. KidsCo
How did three toddlers end up shaping Hollywood?
Davis watched children’s television with them and did the math.
Referring to the shows she admitted: “I had concerns about girls being overworked and the kinds of girls and the stereotyped characters on it, the fact that the boys are using up so much space on the screen compared to how much room they actually occupy in the world outside.”. She established the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media in 2004 as a way of encouraging the film industry to employ more women actors. IMDbWikipedia
Twins born, institute founded, same year. Coincidence of calendar, but the story hangs together: the kids were the audience, and the audience wasn’t seeing itself.
She has said publicly that her children inspired the Institute. That’s the sturdiest connection between her family life and her public career, and it’s the one thing every ranking page gets right and none explains. It’s also why the kids’ privacy has a purpose. The work is about what children see. The children themselves mostly aren’t seen. Yahoo!
How did she bring up her children?
Two things are on the record, and both are about the opposite of how she grew up.
She has said she didn’t have much self-esteem as a kid and was determined her children would. She has admitted that she deliberately lets her children know that it is okay to speak their minds, unlike the “seen but not heard” policy of her own childhood. Yahoo!KidsCo
Furthermore, be wary. There are very specific details about family dinners and how school works available on the Internet, and no source is mentioned.
What was the outcome of the children’s names after the divorce?
The surname of “Davis” was abandoned by the family, but an additional middle name was created from it.
Important dates The date of separation was November 15, 2017 and the divorce was filed in May, 2018, with a judgment being filed on December 3, 2021, Jarrahy said. “They will continue using Davis-Jarrahy and it would beDavis-Jarrahy with an additional Davis middle name as middle second name,” he said in an email.
His kids Jonathan, and Caroline who are younger and will both keep same last name, will now carry their names changed to Davis-Jarrahy with the new added Davis, he wrote in his email.The couple also agreed not to disclose the details of the divorce to third parties. Jarrahy had asked for joint legal and physical custody in his filing. Whatever was finally agreed stays sealed by their own choice.

Davis has spoken warmly of him as a father. She has called Jarrahy a fantastic father. Female First
There’s an odd footnote. During the divorce, Davis claimed she was never legally married because there was no marriage license, while Jarrahy maintained the marriage was valid, saying his father, who officiated, was a recognized officiant under Islamic law. They had wed on September 1, 2001. None of that changes the parents’ standing with the kids, but it explains why “husband and wife” searches lead to some confusing headlines.

Why can’t you find more about them?
Since they have chosen to remain silent, it is up to the content industry to speak out.
The kids seem pretty much tucked away in the dark as far as being seen is concerned, only when they emerge from the shadows accompanying mom does one even notice there are any in tow. A red carpet photo is not a biography. Neither is someone from their own 2022 Linkedin profile. Hollywood Life
So a quick guide to what’s solid and what isn’t:
Solid: names, birth dates, the twins being fraternal, their parents, the name change, Alizeh’s USC enrollment as of 2024, and the Institute origin story.
Reported but soft: college details for the twins, since they come from LinkedIn as relayed secondhand. Also soft: any claim of “they graduated,” a job title, or a home city.
Errors worth knowing about: Some outlets have mangled the twins’ names. Yahoo UK printed “Kia and Kaais,” and Us Weekly once printed “Kalis.” Sources also disagree on Reza’s specialty. IMDb calls him a craniofacial surgeon, while Briefly calls him a neurosurgeon. I’d write “surgeon” and stop there. And one site calls her memoir new in 2026, yet Wikipedia dates it to 2022.

So what should you read next?
Skip the bio sites and go to Davis’s own interviews. The Guardian and Sunday Times Style talks cited above are where the parenting quotes come from, and they’re better in full than in any summary. For the kids themselves, wait for them to say something. They’ve shown they’ll do it on their own schedule, and they rarely do.
