[Braxton] was named the global autism ambassador of Autism Speaks in 2012.
The teenager is the “Un-Break My Heart” crooner’s second child from her first marriage to Keri Lewis. When he was three years old, he was diagnosed with autism. However, in August 2016, Braxton announced that he was off the spectrum.
The 53-year-old described herself as one of the lucky parents and lauded Suzzane Wright, the co-founder of Autism Speaks, for helping her son overcome his autism as she gave her tips and a list of programs to enroll Diezel in.
A year before his recovery, the “Braxton Family Values” star was joined by Diezel and his older brother Denim at the 36th “UNCF: An Evening of Stars” ceremony at Atlanta, Georgia. During the ceremony, the family advocated for autism.
Braxton was named the global autism ambassador of Autism Speaks in 2012. Before then, she was declared the national celebrity spokesperson, hoping to fight the battle against the devastating effects autism has on a family.
Now 17, Diezel is on the path to dominating the entertainment industry like his mother. He is a rising model and often shows off his gigs on social media. He is verified on Instagram and boasts of 128,000 followers.
Meanwhile, Denim lives a public life like the rest of his family and is into basketball. His mother never fails to celebrate his milestones publicly. Recently, he graduated from high school, and Toni lauded him on social media.
