“One of the reasons I decided to become a mother was because of Brielle,” Tracey, who is also a Top Chef alum, told BravoTV.com in an exclusive video. “Brielle used to always say, ‘You’d be a great mom.’ And then when the opportunity arose to become a mom, I was like thumbs up.”

Tracey first revealed that she had welcomed a son, Kannon, into her family In March 2019, shortly after he turned one. Since then, Tracey has captured several of Kannon’s important milestones on Instagram, from his first ever haircut to his second birthday.

And while she admits to being very sleep-deprived these days, Tracey is clearly enjoying every minute with her little boy, stating, “We laugh, we dance, we cook food. Everyone says I have the best kid.”
