“The greatest gift EVER!!!” Curtis penned on his post, “Your dads are already obsessed with you!!! Introducing Mr. Arrow Fox 5.24.21.”

Last month, Curtis told People magazine their “journey to starting our family has been a long one. Even before it was documented on Styling Hollywood, starting a family was always at the forefront of our minds and in our plans. We explored adoption with multiple agencies before feeling like surrogacy was the right way to go for us.”
Born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, some of Bolden’s clients have included actresses Taraji P. Henson and Yara Shahidi, plus director Ava DuVernay. He has been recognized as one of Hollywood Reporter’s Top 25 Most Powerful Stylists three years in a row. He is the co-founder of JSN Studio, a multi-disciplined creative agency.
As part of their birth announcement, Bolden and Curtis partnered with Bubly sparkling water, which made a $100,000 donation to the nonprofit organization Family Equality to raise awareness about the challenges LGBTQ+ parents face.
