Like her fiancé, Nicole has Palestine roots, but she was raised in New Rochelle, NY by Pauline Vitale and Elwood Tuck with two brothers and a sister. Her younger brother Jonathan Tuck was shot in 2018 by a marijuana dealer.

With a 15-days-young son and wife, Mohammed went by plane to the USA to join his older brother, who had already settled in that country. In the USA Mohammed changed his name for Mike for US citizens to spell his name easier. As Mike’s brother has already started a clothing-selling business, he joined his older sibling in it. Thus, Mike and his wife sold clothes at flea markets. Initially, the Khaled family lived in Cocoa Beach, Florida. But they moved a lot during DJ Khaled’s childhood. Mike owned the apparel store “Mr. Man”.

In addition to Alaa, he parented two kids – son DJ Khaled and daughter Lubna. Currently, Mike is retired. He enjoys his calm life as a father and grandfather in Jacksonville, Florida.

Date of birth: 1972

DJ Khaled has two siblings: an older brother and a younger sister. His older brother is a popular actor, known for his roles in such films and TV shows as “Can Hardly Wait”, starring Jennifer Love Hewitt, “Hannah Montana”, and “Charmed” etc. as an actor, he is known under the stage moniker “Alec Ledd”.

He was born during his parents’ honeymoon in Peru. In his childhood, Alaa used to change schools in different states because of his parents’ constant moving on business. It was hard for him to be a newcomer all the time, so he developed his sense of humor and communication skills, which later helped him in his profession as an actor.

He started acting in the local theater during his high school year. Alaa got several acting jobs, including the role in Rodgers and Hammerstein’s musical “Oklahoma!” It took him some effort to leave his parents’ house and move to New York to pursue acting, as it is a tradition in his family to move from his parents only after getting married and having kids.

But with some support from his parents’ side, he moved to New York to study at American Musical & Dramatic Academy. After graduation, he tried to join the cast of Broadway Theater, but he was not accepted because of his ethnicity (that mattered in New York in the early 1990s). That’s why Alaa followed his agent’s advice and changed his name to Alec Ledd. With that moniker, he moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting.

Alaa played many roles on the big and small screen, but most of them were supporting ones. He became more popular after he became a co-host of podcasts Worst Ever Podcast. Initially started as the live show, “Worst Ever Podcast” gained wide popularity during quarantine time. With his friend and sister for life Christine Lakin, he invites famous actors, comedians, writers, etc to their studio to recall the most embarrassing moments in their lives. Alaa thinks that laughter is the best way to get rid of painful memories. The podcast has already won several awards.

Nothing is known about Alaa’s personal life. But he is an easy-going person, who has lots of friends among celebrities, including the actress Alyssa Milano, whom he met at the set of “Charmed”.
