In the time since, Marcille has shared more social media content with Sterling, including a framed photo of the couple with the caption, “Forever Sterlings.” She also called Sterling her “baby” in an August Instagram post.

Yes, Marcille and Sterling share sons Michael Jr. (born 2018) and Maverick (born 2019). Marcille also has a daughter, Marley (born 2014), with ex Kevin McCall, whom she broke up with a year after Marley’s birth.

Marcille has full custody of Marley and had her last name legally changed to Sterling, as Marley viewed Sterling as a father figure since she was just toddler.

When Marcille filed for divorce from Sterling, she sought legal and primary custody of Michael and Maverick, along with child support, according to People. They reached a private custody agreement when the divorce was finalized.
