Ayesha Curry paid her daughter $20 to clean the living room: 'Giving kids responsibility shows trust and builds character,' expert says

Ayesha Curry started her journey as a mother at a young age.

The 36-year-old chef and businesswoman married her husband, NBA player Steph Curry, when she was just 22, she said on a recent episode of the “Call Her Daddy” podcast. And though they didn’t plan on having kids immediately, Curry got pregnant with their oldest daughter within months.

“I was thinking we were going to be, like, bar hopping,” she said. “It’s like, nope, you’re pregnant.”

The couple now has four kids ages one to 13. Curry shared anecdotes about her life as a mother, like the time she found some of her intimate apparel in her son’s pocket.

When asked about a time when she bribed her kids to get them to do something she wanted them to do, she laughed and said, “my 13-year-old, Riley, and my niece, Ava, I paid them $20 to clean up the kitchen and the living room.”
