Ricard and Andy Foye’s Pregnancies Break Transgender Barriers Ricard Foyé and his husband, Andy Foyé, are leaving each other’s tribes on Survivor. The couple, who have two children, Aurelia, four, and Lucia, two, are divorcing after seven years of marriage.
“Telling my kids that baba & daddy are separating will always hurt,” Richard tweeted on April 17 beside a family selfie. “We had a fantastic run. “Two beautiful babies and two angel babies, so much love.”
Ricard wrote a message to Andy, with whom he eloped on New Year’s Eve 2015, before they married in May 2018.
“You’re my best friend,” Ricard, who played on Season 41 of Survivor, continued. “Our first family trip as friends proved even more that we’re still soulmates, just in a different way.” Andy has yet to officially remark on the split.
Ricard and Andy met while volunteering at an LGBT youth camp in 2015.
Ricard and Andy met while volunteering at an LGBT youth camp in 2015, and they married the following year. Andy, encouraged by his transgender community, told Ricard in 2018 that he had stopped taking hormone therapy and was ready to attempt to have children and carry them himself.
Andy referred to himself as a seahorse father because male seahorses had babies. Aurelia was born in 2019, and Lucia in 2021.
“Before meeting Ricard, I hadn’t thought about having kids and not carrying kids,” Andy told E! News in March 2022. “However, once I met him, it was clear I wanted to start a family with him.”
Ricard, for one, was originally skeptical, but “we met, and I learned so much more about my queer community and so much more about what’s possible.”
Since becoming a father, the Survivor star has been amazed by his children’s developing personalities.
“I thought they would just mimic us, use our mannerisms and phrasing until they were older,” he told E! News last year. “But [Aurelia] will be the person she will be, and that is entirely her responsibility.” We’re here to help her develop, and seeing her independence at such a young age is amazing. And Lucia is on her way. He’s a hoot.”
