Despite the exciting news, not a lot is known about Michelle though, but we’ve done some digging and here’s what we can tell you about her.<\/p>\n
Who Is Michelle White?<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\nMichelle White is a white Asian-American woman, and she was reportedly born on May 18, 1989<\/a>. It’s not totally clear how Donald and Michelle met, how long they’ve been dating or what she may do for work, and that’s because they’re a notoriously private couple. However, Donald has previously spoken about her in interviews. For example, in 2018, he said that she was doing the “hard stuff”, following the birth of their second child.<\/p>\n“I sleep four hours a night! I mean I don\u2019t dream as much, I just miss dreaming! I think my partner, she does all the hard stuff, to be honest,\u201d Donald told PEOPLE<\/em><\/a> at the time. “She\u2019s just very supportive. I haven\u2019t really had to change anything. But it\u2019s given me definitely another perception on what life is. It gives me a lot of context.”<\/p>\nHe has also applauded her in a number of his acceptance speeches at various award shows, but we’ll get to that later.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Michelle-White-Donald-Glover-mega-embed.jpg?resize=620%2C650\")
Donald Glover and partner Michelle White (MEGA)<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nMichelle White and Her Children<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\nMichelle White shares three children with actor and musician Donald Glover. Their first son, Legend<\/strong>, was born in 2016, and their most recent child, who was named after the actor’s late father Donald Glover, Sr., was born in May 2020<\/a>. Donald revealed that bit of news during a conversation with Michaela<\/strong> Coel<\/strong> for GQ<\/em><\/a>, when\u00a0he spoke about George<\/strong> Floyd<\/strong>, the black man who died after a\u00a0Minneapolis\u00a0officer\u00a0held his knee on George’s neck for eight minutes.<\/p>\n“I was in the hospital bed. My son had just been born, like, an hour before and I was watching the George Floyd video,” he said. “It was such a weird moment. It was such an intense, weird moment, because I\u2019m watching that video and it\u2019s like eight minutes long, so you\u2019re sitting there and I had just had this amazing, joyful, expanding moment”.<\/p>\n
“I don\u2019t even know what, really, the word is to describe it,” he continued during the emotional interview. “It was just expanding: the empathy and compassion and the terror and the joy of it.”<\/p>\n
Later in the interview, the Solo: A\u00a0Star Wars<\/a>\u00a0Story<\/em> actor revealed that he and Michelle are already thinking about expanding their family. When Michaela said that she\u2019s freezing her eggs, he replied, “That\u2019s great. I feel like it\u2019s gonna become more and more [common]. Because I\u2019ve actually had that thing where I\u2019m like, \u2018Maybe I should just get a vasectomy and just freeze those assets.’ Because adopting kids, my family adopting kids \u2026 And we actually have been talking about [it], because we have three boys so I\u2019m like, \u2018Oh, it might be nice to be get a girl in there.\u2019 So I think all those are great options. But it is hard.”<\/p>\nDonald and Michelle’s second-born son, who was welcomed into the world in Jan. 2018<\/a>, is named Drake<\/strong>. Donald rarely posts photos on his Instagram<\/a> account, and out of the nine pictures he has shared, none of them include his children.<\/p>\nMichelle White’s Relationship With Donald<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n![\"Michelle](\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/donald-glover-michelle-white-ss-EMBED2.jpg?quality=100&resize=620%2C900\")

However, they had their first child in 2016, and that’s actually when she first became known to the public. But even though they’re super private, Donald still gushes over Michelle whenever he can.<\/p>\n
During his acceptance speech at the 2017 Emmys, when he took home the award for Outstanding Actor In A Comedy, the Lion King<\/em> star said, “I want to thank Michelle, my partner. You love me even with how crazy I get. I want to thank my baby, my son, for just being the joy in my life. I want to thank my unborn son, we’re listening to Stevie tonight.”<\/p>\nThen, during his 2017 Golden Globes speech, when he won the award for his portrayal of Earnest \u201cEarn Marks\u201d on Atlanta<\/em>, he shared the same sentiments. In fact, he took the opportunity to honor and thank both Michelle and his first son, Legend. “I really want to say thank you to my son and the mother of my son for making me believe in people again and things being possible, so thank you,” he said while on stage.<\/p>\nDuring an interview with The Hollywood Reporter<\/em><\/a> in 2017, Donald said he disliked the idea of marriage. “It doesn’t serve the purpose that I would want it to serve,” he said. However, during a 2019 press tour for The Lion King<\/em> reboot, in which he voiced Simba, he used words that suggested his feelings may have changed since then, as he referred to Michelle as his “wife”.<\/p>\nWhile remembering how confused his son, Legend, was upon hearing his voice come from Simba’s lips in the movie, Donald said<\/a>, “He kept looking and my wife was like, ‘Oh, he’s getting it. He’s getting it,'”. So funny!<\/p>\n
