Who are Kirstie Alley’s kids?
In October 1992, Kirstie Alley and her then-husband Parker Stevenson adopted their first son together.
William ‘True’ Stevenson is Kirstie’s only son and the first of her two children.
In 1995, Kirstie and Parker added another member to their family with the adoption of their daughter Lillie Stevenson.
Prior to welcoming True and Lillie, the late Cheers actress suffered a miscarriage in 1990.
Regarding those years of her life, she said in her 2005 book How To Lose Your Ass and Regain Your Life: “When the baby was gone, I just didn’t really get over it.
“Neither did my body. I so thoroughly convinced my body that it was still pregnant after nine months that I had milk coming from my breasts.
“I was still fat, I was still grieving, and I had just been told it was very possible I would never be able to have children.”
On December 5, 2022, True and Lillie took to social media with an announcement.
Through their mother’s Instagram profile, the two revealed that Kirstie lost her battle with colon cancer and died that Monday.
The late Emmy Award winner’s children stated: “We are sad to inform you that our incredible, fierce, and loving mother has passed away after a battle with cancer, only recently discovered.
“She was surrounded by her closest family and fought with great strength, leaving us with a certainty of her never-ending joy of living and whatever adventures lie ahead.
“As iconic as she was on screen, she was an even more amazing mother and grandmother.”

They added: “Our mother’s zest and passion for life, her children, grandchildren, and her many animals, not to mention her eternal joy of creating, were unparalleled and left us inspired to live life to the fullest just as she did.”
How many grandchildren does Kirstie have?
Through True and Lillie, Kirstie had the chance to experience life as a grandmother.
In June 2016, True and his girlfriend Sarah Parker welcomed their son Waylon.
At the time, the Golden Globe-winning star told PEOPLE: “It’s heartwarming to see your own child have a child.
“My son and his girlfriend are amazing parents. I couldn’t have dreamt of anyone being better parents.
“Being a grandma is in the top three best things that has ever happened to me.”
Kirstie commented: “I always knew my son would be because he loves babies, he’s always loved little kids, they’ve always gotten along really well with him.
“He’s just an excellent dad, really hands-on. Both of them are just amazing.”
Waylon is the first of Kirstie’s three grandchildren.
True has a daughter named Rebel and Lillie a son named Ripp.
