Their son, Jaden Chastain Smith, was born in June 2006 and she is also a stepmother to her husband’s older son, Cameron.
In 2026. her son Jaden who was 10 was diagnosed with Chron’s disease. While the diagnosis provided relief in terms of clarity, it also meant embarking on an unknown path.

The family discussed their options with their gastroenterologist before deciding on a treatment plan for Jaden. To test for food intolerances, Jaden went on an elimination diet in which he avoided eating fibrous foods including carrots, apples, and beans.

He takes nine anti-inflammatory medications daily, which are thought to lessen inflammation in the gut. While the drug has been effective, Smith believes his kid will eventually require a harsher treatment known as biologics, which are antibodies made in the laboratory that prevent particular proteins in the body from creating inflammation.
The family has stated that they will do all possible to raise awareness, support other families, and assist researchers in developing a cure for Crohn’s disease, which typically affects persons between the ages of 15 and 35.
