Tiffany Haddish Early Life
Tiffany Sara Cornelia Haddish was born in Los Angeles, California, on December 3, 1979, to parents Tsihaye Reda and Leola. She has Eritrean Jewish ancestors on her father’s side and African American ancestors on her mother’s.
Tiffany was only three years old when her father abandoned the family, making it difficult for her mother to raise multiple children; as a result, Tiffany’s mother, Leola, remarried. Haddish grew up in South Central Los Angeles with four siblings, including two half-sisters and two half-brothers.
Tiffany’s mother, Leola, owned a small business, but things changed for the family when Leola was involved in a car accident and suffered brain damage in 1988. Tiffany was nine years old, which began a schizophrenic spell that made the next two years extremely difficult for Tiffany and her brothers and sisters.
Tiffany claims that her mother’s behaviour changed dramatically, becoming abusive and violent. Then her comedic abilities developed when she decided to make her mother laugh to change her mother’s mind and make her less likely to become violent.
Haddish was placed in a foster home at the age of 12 and was separated from her half-singling. At the age of 15, she moved in with her grandmother.
