Former 90 Day Fiancé franchise star Deavan Clegg has seized every moment with her baby, Taeyang, and her social media posts prove that. The 26-year-old Utah native rose to fame on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, where she married Korean native Jihoon Lee. At the time, Deavan loved her partner and wanted to form a family with him. Unfortunately, things didn’t turn out well when Jihoon showed minimal interest in supporting his wife. As a result, Deavan split from Jihoon and returned to the United States with their son, Taeyang.
Over the past few months, Deavan had a tough time after Taeyang got diagnosed with leukemia. She kept fighting for her baby even when her ex-husband chose not to be involved. Fortunately, the mother has a great support system in her mom, Elicia, and her new boyfriend, Topher Park, who helped her throughout the tough time. In 2022, Deavan started a fundraiser for her son to help support his two-year treatment. At the same time, she shared updates with the donors and kept them up-to-date with Taeyang’s progress. Recently, Deavan shared that her son was doing much better and his treatment would end in August 2024.
