Leon Bridges: Birth, Parents, Siblings & Career

Leon Bridges was born on July 13, 1989, in Fort Worth, Texas, to Wallace Bridges Sr. and Lisa Sawyer.

The singer is of African-American descent and of black ethnicity.

He grew up in a poor family, but that didn’t stop him from aspiring to the top as a child.

The Coming Home hitmaker has a younger brother named Wallace Jr., as well as three half-sisters from his father’s relationship with another woman following his divorce from Lisa.

Bridges used to split his time between inner-city Dallas and suburban Fort Worth when he was younger after his parents (originally from New Orleans) divorced when he was seven years old.

His father worked at a community center in Dallas.

He attended a predominantly white, middle-class elementary school in Crowley, a city 5 miles from downtown Fort Worth, and then Crowley High School, where he learned some great dance moves from a classmate.

Leon Bridges enrolled at Tarrant County College after high school with the intention of studying dance, but his mother wouldn’t let him.

After spending a few months at home, the singer defied his mother’s wishes and enrolled in advanced classes in jazz, ballet, and, later, street dancing and hip-hop.

Bridges took jobs at a restaurant and an eye-solution plant after finishing his studies to help his mother.

He was discovered despite his love of soul music and vintage fashion – he wears a razor-sharp hair part, vintage suits, natty loafers, and starched-collared shirts tucked into high-waist trousers.

After connecting with Austin Jenkins (who shares his vintage fashion sense) and Joshua Block, the two assisted him in producing his first few tracks, including Coming Home, which they produced at their studio.

Since then, the soul singer’s performance has continued to win many hearts.

So far, he has released two wonderful albums under Columbia Records: Coming Home (June 23, 2015) and Good Thing (May 4, 2018).

He has been with the label since 2014, and his debut album received a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Album at the 58th Annual Grammy Awards.

Leon Bridges: Relationship Status

Leon Bridges has not yet married. He is single but devoted to his rapidly expanding career.

He has had one serious romantic relationship in his life, however.

In an interview, he stated that he ended his relationship with his ex-girlfriend in 2014.

He didn’t say anything about the lady’s identity or how long they dated.

Bridges’ popularity has grown, but he has yet to be seen with a girl, nor has he made headlines for marrying.

He appears to be flying solo and is not yet ready to settle down with someone of the opposite gender.
