Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo share three children: daughters Dusty Rose and Gio Grace, as well as a son
Sophie Dodd is a freelance writer for PEOPLE. She previously worked as an editorial assistant at PEOPLE from 2018 to 2022.
Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo — who wed in 2014 — are parents to three kids.
The couple welcomed their third child — and first son — in January 2023. He joined older sisters Dusty Rose, 7, and Gio Grace, 6.
Both the musician and the model have spoken out about their desire to expand their family over the years, with the “She Will Be Loved” singer joking in 2014 that he wanted “to have 100 kids.”
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight in November 2021, Prinsloo opened up about the possibility of more kids as well.
“You know what, never say never. We want a big family, who knows?” Prinsloo told the outlet. “We’re leaving it up to fate and just what happens. What will happen, will happen. So there’s no limits to it.”
In September 2022, after a series of cheating accusations against Levine surfaced, a source close to Prinsloo told PEOPLE that the couple — who were expecting their son at the time — were trying to stay positive for the kids. “Their focus right now is just on being the best parents possible. She is hurt and upset, but she is holding back because of the kids,” the source said.
A few months after their son was born, Levine told Ryan Seacrest that he loves the “chaos” of being a dad to three rambunctious kids.
“It’s awesome. I embrace the chaos,” he said, adding that he’s in the process of convincing Prinsloo that it’s time to purchase a minivan. “You can make a minivan whatever you want it. It doesn’t have to be your mom’s Chrysler Town & Country. It can be this spectacular spaceship and fun.”
The family of five’s life at home was captured in Maroon 5’s music video for their single “Middle Ground,” which dropped in May 2023. The video featured cameos by Prinsloo, Dusty and Gio hanging out in the backyard of their home.
From birthday celebrations to their sweetest social media moments as a family, here’s everything to know about Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo’s three kids.
Dusty Rose, 7
In March 2016, PEOPLE confirmed that Levine and Prinsloo were expecting their first child together. The couple welcomed daughter Dusty Rose on Sept. 21, 2016, in California.
Ahead of his first daughter’s arrival, the former PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive opened up about preparing for first-time parenthood, telling Kelly Ripa, “We’re just gonna jump in, and just try to figure it out.”
He continued, “I’ll probably be a lot more freaked out when I see the baby and I’m like, ‘Oh, there’s a baby now!’ “
A few weeks into fatherhood, Levine stopped by On Air with Ryan Seacrest to talk to the host about how he was adjusting. “I’ve been a parent for three weeks; what do I know?” he said, admitting, “I don’t know anything, but it’s part of the beauty of it, honestly. There are a lot of instincts, a lot of things that kick in and switch on. It’s a beautiful experience.”
The pair celebrated their little one’s first birthday with a blowout bash in 2017, featuring giant unicorn balloon animals and a rainbow tutu for the birthday girl.
Dusty has also appeared on Levine and Prinsloo’s respective Instagrams a handful of times, typically with her face blurred or facing away from the camera. She even made a cameo alongside her mom in Maroon 5’s 2018 music video for “Girls Like You.”
The young girl is a loving big sister, as Levine explained in 2018. “She’s obsessed with Gio,” he told Ellen DeGeneres. “Every morning when she wakes up, the first thing she says is, ‘Gio, Gio, Gio, Gio!’ And runs into her room. It’s really cute,” he continued. “Totally in love with her. She’s a little rough with her ’cause she doesn’t understand [being gentler] yet, so she’ll get in her face and do crazy stuff.”
Levine opened up to DeGeneres again the following year about his daughters’ opinion on his music, revealing, “You’d think that [Dusty would] like when I sang to her, but she just doesn’t like it that much,” he said. “I wish I was lying.” He recounted a “humbling” experience of “auditioning” for his older daughter, sharing that she asked him to put the guitar away after he began playing for her.
“I don’t know if I have the courage to confront her again and perform music in front of her,” he joked.
Gio Grace, 6
The couple revealed they were expecting again on Sept. 13, 2017, with Prinsloo sharing a photo of herself in a bikini with a growing baby bump. “ROUND 2 … ” she captioned the mirror selfie.
The pair welcomed their second child, daughter Gio Grace, on Feb. 15, 2018, making Dusty Rose a big sister.
Gio made her Instagram debut a few days later, with Prinsloo sharing a snap of her feet. “Gio Grace Levine 2/15/18,” the mom of two wrote, adding, “She’s got her dad’s toes.”
The proud mama celebrated Gio’s first birthday with a Moana-themed bash in February 2019, sharing several balloon-filled photos on Instagram from the extravagant occasion, which featured a rainbow cake and tiered trays of dessert.
“My little GG is 1 i love you,” she captioned the cute snap.
While her older sister isn’t a big fan of their father’s music, Gio is already following in his musical footsteps. “Gio loves music,” Levine told DeGeneres in 2019. “But yeah, Dusty’s the manager, you know? Gio’s the talent, Dusty’s the manager.”
After leaving his role as a coach on The Voice in 2019, Levine told DeGeneres that he was loving life as a “stay-at-home dad” and how much time it afforded him with his two daughters.
“I was just constantly working for so many years — very lucky, very fortunate, very blessed and all that, but [I wanted] to be able to spend time in this moment with my new, young family, and just have the greatest time ever.”
Speaking about his daughters, he revealed, “I’m obsessed with them. I know that’s a good thing, because they’re my children … that’s why I don’t do much, because I love hanging [out with them]. I genuinely adore them in a way that I never knew I could adore any little person.”
In February 2023, Gio celebrated her 5th birthday. The following week, Prinsloo shared footage from her daughter’s fun-filled party on her Instagram Story. The model included a video of guests snow tubing down an icy hill and pictures of a rainbow cake.
Another picture showed the mom of three cheek-to-cheek with her daughter. “We raged,” Prinsloo captioned the snap.
Levine and Prinsloo’s Son, 1
On Jan. 30, 2023, a source shared that Levine and Prinsloo had welcomed their third baby. The former Victoria’s Secret model posted the first glimpse of her son on Instagram in March 2023. The photo was of the 2-month-old baby’s feet resting on Prinsloo’s lap.
PEOPLE confirmed that Prinsloo and the “Sunday Morning” singer were expanding their family back in September 2022. Before the couple publicly addressed their baby news, the Namibian model was spotted out for lunch on Sept. 5 in Santa Barbara, California, where her baby bump was visible in a silk floral dress.
Prinsloo previously opened up to Entertainment Tonight in November 2021 about wanting to have more children. “We always knew we wanted a second one. So I think for me in those two years, when I had two babies under the age of 2, I was just like, ‘Don’t even think about it!’ But I do also want five kids, but don’t even think about it,” she explained.
On Sept. 15, Prinsloo shared the first photo of herself with her third bump prominently on display, posting a window selfie of herself in loose white pants and a tie-dye shirt.
On Jan. 31, 2023, a source told PEOPLE that Levine and Prinsloo “were very focused on special family time before the new baby arrived.”
“After the drama in the fall, Adam has really tried to just focus on his family,” the insider continued. “He was very embarrassed and remorseful. She and Adam are doing great. They are excited about the new baby.” The source also revealed that Dusty and Gio are happy with the family’s new addition. “The girls are great with the baby,” they said.
In November 2023, nearly a year after the birth, Prinsloo revealed that their third child was a boy. The model talked about her intense birth experience on The Mother Daze podcast, referring to their youngest as he for the first time since the baby’s birth.
“There’s an amazing photo that my doula showed me … I think 12 minutes before I gave birth, before he came out,” Prinsloo said. “She took a picture and I was laughing. And looking back at that, I was like, ‘Wow, that’s so crazy,’ because in that moment … it was tunnel vision for me. I was just … [trying to] get through this.”
