Because of a series of unfortunate circumstances, her godparents adopted her when she turned 22. When Jenn and Michael McNeely were seen in Love Is Blind as Iyanna&#8217;s parents, it raised so many questions as people pointed out that the two were too young to be Iyanna&#8217;s parents.<\/p>\n<p>While the age of her parents remains unknown, it was quite obvious that Jenn and Michael were in their late 30s or early 40s. There was no way to justify they birthed Iyanna. Anyway, Iyanna put the speculations to rest when she explained how the McNeely couple became her parents. She disclosed that they were originally her godparents and officially became her parents when they adopted her at the age of 22.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Iyanna\u2019s Adoptive Mother, Jenn McNeely, is a Legal Practitioner<\/strong><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CNSoLphLBa8\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;

He graduated from Georgia Southern University in 1995 with a degree in Criminal Justice. Since then, he has worked with several organizations in the public and private sectors. With multiple licenses and certifications to his name, Michael began his career as a military police officer with the Army National Guard. He would later serve as a police officer under the Fulton County Police Department.<\/p>\n<p>After he left the police in 2012, McNeely became a member of the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council in the State of Georgia. The former police officer has also served as a member of the Georgia Advisory Certification Committee, the Juvenile Corrections Committee of the American Correctional Association, and the Professional Development Council of ASIS International.<\/p>\n<p>From January 2017 to May 2022, Michael McNeely was a member of the West Georgia Technical College Board of Directors. At the moment, he is the Assistant Deputy Commissioner of the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice. He also serves in the Facilities &amp; Technology Citizens Oversight Committee of Cobb County School District and the SPLOST Citizens&#8217; Oversight Committee of the county&#8217;s government.<\/p>\n<p>Michael is also a seasoned political activist with several political publications to his name.

She had a difficult childhood and was initially raised by a single mother, as her biological father was not in the picture. It is not even certain if she knows who her real father is.<\/p>\n<p>Iyanna was raised by her biological mother, whose identity is also not known to the public. For some reason, her biological mother was no longer able to take care of her. So when Iyanna was nine years old, she started living with her mom&#8217;s cousin.<\/p>\n<p>When she turned 18, she was kicked out of the house, so she went to live with her godparents, Jenn and Michael McNeely. She lived with the McNeelys, who adopted her when she was 22. Although it is not clear when her godparents got married, they have been together for many years. It is also not clear if they had other children, but multiple reports refer to Iyanna as their oldest child.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What is Iyanna Love Is Blind\u2019s Ethnicity?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Iyanna Love Is Blind is an American of African ancestry. Even though her biological parents are not known to the public, it is quite obvious she belongs to the African-American ethnic group.<\/p>\n<p>Her adoptive parents, Jenn and Michael McNeely are believed to be multi-racial.
