Mary Kay Letourneau and Vili Fualaau’s daughter, Audrey Fualaau, has welcomed her first child with fiancé Ethan Porter: a son named Elias Ulumailuma D. Porter. The new mom announced the birth in an Instagram post on May 30, writing, “Welcome to the world son ... Mommy and daddy love you forever and more than you’ll ever know!” She also posted a TikTok video earlier this week playing around with Elias. Audrey’s father, Vili, first became a grandfather in 2024 after his younger daughter, Georgia, gave birth to a baby boy. The sisters are the only daughters of Vili and convicted child rapist Mary Kay. The pair’s illegal relationship began in June 1996, when Mary Kay, 34, was 12-year-old Vili’s sixth-grade teacher. At the time, Mary Kay was married to Steve Letourneau, with whom she had four children. Mary Kay was arrested in 1997, after one of Steve’s family members reported her to police. While out on bail and awaiting sentencing on two counts of second-degree child rape, Mary Kay gave birth to Audrey, her first child with Vili. She gave birth to their second daughter, Georgia, while in jail in 1998—making Vili a father of two at just 15 years old. One year after being released from prison in 2004, following a seven-year sentence, Mary Kay and Vili wed. The couple were married for 12 years before separating in 2017; they officially divorced in 2019. Mary Kay died of cancer in 2020.
