Idina Menzel Son: Meet Walker Nathaniel Diggs
During the togetherness of Taye and Idina, they welcomed their son, Walker Nathaniel, on 2 September 2009. He became the only child of the past lovers, Idina and Taye, before their split up.
After the official separation, Idina and Taye shared the custody of their son, Walker. However, he is seen with his father, Taye, most of the time. The boy name Walker’s meaning is fuller of clothes.
Walker has a great passion for the sports field. At such a young age, he is a fantastic athlete. Walker enjoys playing basketball. And when he is not involved in it, he usually tosses the football around. But, that does not mean Walker does not like acting. He enjoys both worlds, Sports, and Acting.
In the end, time will tell what career path Walker chooses in the near future, but his parents will undoubtedly be proud of him.
