Personal life

Alexandrea Martin is the daughter of Whoopi Goldberg and her first husband, Alvin Martin.

Martin has three children: daughters Amara and Jerzey, and son Mason.[2] Her first pregnancy was by a half-Vietnamese, half-black high school fling. The family completely abandoned HJ, her first daughter's father, after he went to prison at a young age. The two met while Whoopi lived in Berkeley.[3] Her second and third pregnancies were by her then-husband, Bernard Dean, whom she later divorced. Martin and Dean remarried on October 15, 2011.[4] She became a grandmother in 2014.[5]
