Nash Grier’s wife, Taylor Giavasis, is opening up about her decision to stop breastfeeding after seven years.
“I’ve been ready to stop breastfeeding but I didn’t expect it to make me this emotional, im literally tearing up writing this 🥹,” Giavasis, 28, wrote via Instagram on Friday, July 31. “It’s funny how you can be ready for something and still feel so much when it finally happens.”
Alongside the message, Giavasis shared clips of her sitting in a chair mid-feed. In the last clip, Giavasis kissed the top of her child’s head.
“After seven years of breastfeeding, we’re closing this chapter,” Giavasis wrote over the video.
Grier, 28, and Giavasis have been together since 2015, tying the knot nine years later in December 2024. Throughout their relationship, the couple have welcomed son Malakai and daughter Noa in 2019 and 2022, respectively.
“[Our relationship] changed in a lot of ways,” Grier said in a 2020 YouTube video, sharing how parenthood led to their dynamic being altered. “I mean, when our relationship really started heating up, I was definitely prioritizing her in every aspect of life. I was always thinking about her and what she was doing or what she wanted to do.”
Grier shared that his priorities shifted to Malakai’s well-being once Giavasis found out she was pregnant. “I feel like we’ve gotten tighter and grown closer if that was possible,” Grier said.
Giavasis, for her part, shared that their relationship was no longer “in the front seat” once they welcomed their first child.
“It’s about Malakai [and] it’s about us working together,” Giavasis said. “We aren’t the main focus of our whole lives anymore, so I feel like it forces us to communicate properly. If there’s a problem in our relationship, then there’s a problem with everything.”
Grier explained that stepping into parenthood allowed him to become “more selfless” and “put all that petty stuff” aside.
“Our main focus is Malakai, and I feel that makes us love each other loving Malakai,” Giavasis added. “All our energy goes to him. … [Nash is] so selfless and so willing to listen and learn and give and do it without wanting anything in return.”
Two years later, Grier reflected on what he and Giavasis learned their first go-round as parents with Malakai.
“With Malakai, we did everything we felt was humanly possible to prepare,” he said in a 2022 YouTube vlog. “At a certain point, there’s nothing you can do to be prepared for bringing another life into this world. Having one kid certainly prepared us for having another, but it didn’t prepare us for having both of them simultaneously. I think we’ve done well.”
