LaBrant entered into a relationship with a man named Tom Smith as a teenager and at 19 years old, had her first child, Everleigh. LaBrant and Smith ended their relationship soon after their daughter’s birth. When Everleigh was in preschool, the mother-daughter duo began posting videos on Musical.ly, the platform that was later bought out by TikTok.

Savannah and Cole LaBrant started dating in 2016 and married in 2017. In an Instagram post that announced their relationship, Cole LaBrant wrote, “Savannah is amazing, and anyone who thinks differently just because of what you may see on the outside or assume based on one’s past obviously doesn’t know the redeeming God that we know. Our relationship is rooted in Jesus and we are both believing in the fruit that will be produced because of us choosing Him first.”^[5]

Savannah LaBrant wrote in a FaithGateway article, “Once I started trusting God again, He did all this amazing stuff in my life. I saw what a relationship should be like and the kind of person God wanted for me: someone who brought out the best in me, didn’t judge me for my mistakes, and drew me closer to God. This was God’s way of showing me what I deserve.”^[6]

In May 2018, the couple announced that they were expecting a child together, who was born in December and named Posie. The family’s third child, named Zealand, was born in 2020, and their fourth child, Sunday, was born in 2022.^[4] 

The LaBrant Fam

The LaBrants created a YouTube channel called Cole&Sav early on in their relationship.
