Ziggy Marley and kids visit the zoo

Musician Ziggy Marley, son of reggae legend Bob Marley, took his two youngest children — Judah Victoria, 3, and Gideon Robert Nesta, 17 months — to check out the animals at the Los Angeles Zoo on Sunday. Ziggy, 39, and wife Orly are also parents to son Daniel and daughters Justice and Zuri.

I love the name of his other daughter…. Zuri! when I was pregnant that was the name we picked if we had a girl. It’s not a common name. When I’ve mentioned it people normally say like Tom Cruise’s kid Suri. sigh

I like the name Judah and Gideon. Both are nice strong names.

carie elena be:
Many people have lots of kids ( Ziggy Marley, Mia Farrow, Steven Speilberg ) so I dont understand why Brad/Ang are so heavily critised for their may kids.

I agree, great names. And Nesta is one of Ziggy’s given names too I believe.

Wow, that was kind of a weird moment. Not seconds ago I was listening to Bob Marley’s “Every little thing is gonna be alright.” Then the song ends, I decide to come on here, and there is a picture of his son!

Any way, very cute children, and more power to him for being able to handle five kids. I am sure I wouldn’t be cut out for that, so I really admire that some people do have a house full of kids. I think I would probably lose my sanity!

i’m a longtime fan of bob, so this photo was a nice mix-it-up for this site. don’t see many reggae stars on cbb. most of bob’s kids have large families. bob himself had 11 kids, that we know of.

- I-dra on June 30th, 2008

According to Wikipedia.org Bob has 13 kids… And it seems to me all Marley’s have lots of kids (At least three for each Marley). So it must be a real family gathering when they all come together!

Bob should be really proud looking down and seeing how far his children has come and how the are carrying on his legacy and his grandchildren are probably gonna follow in the same footsteps too. The Marley’s lives on.

Oh my god, Ziggy looks so much like his father. Cute kids too.

Met Ziggy in 1991 in Seattle at the Sheraton downtown. Didn’t know who he was and asked…”hey, are you guys in a reggae band or somethin”? My more clueless days.

I love Bob, so seeing his son with his kids was a nice treat. I’m currently 7 mos pregnant w/ my 2nd child, who ironically I’m naming Kingston after the capitol of Jamaica and previously home to Bob Marley. It’s great to see a dad spending quality time with his kids.
