Ayesha Curry has already been a part of a company, Back to the Roots, which inspires kids to grow their own food. In March, she took on the role of Chief Garden Officer in the company.
Ayesha and Stephen are parents to four children — daughters Riley (12) and Ryan (9), and sons Canon (6) and Caius (1) — which explains their strong interest in promoting children's health and nutrition. Stephen also has his own whiskey brand and has been promoting it at events during the off-season.
