Alright, so, the other day I got it in my head that I just had to know more about Maisa Hallum’s parents. You know, Maisa, who’s now Maisa Smart after marrying that basketball player, Marcus Smart? Yeah, her. I mean, she’s a pretty successful entrepreneur, co-founding that swimwear brand, Sousa Swim, and everything. I figured her folks must have an interesting story, right?
So, first things first, I hit up the usual spots online, just to get a general idea. Typed in “Maisa Hallum parents” and started digging. Turns out, there isn’t a ton of detailed info out there about them specifically. They seem to be pretty private folks, which, you know, good for them.
What I did find out is that Maisa was born and raised in California. I found some things say she comes from a “stable business family” with American parents. So, I guess her parents were also into business stuff. I started picturing them as this power couple, running their own business, maybe giving Maisa advice along the way. It makes sense, given Maisa’s own entrepreneurial spirit, but that’s all just me speculating. There’s no hard facts to back that up.
I spent a good chunk of the afternoon just clicking around, reading bits and pieces here and there. A lot of what I found was more about Maisa and Marcus. Like, did you know they’re expecting a baby boy? They’ve already named him Zayn! They tied the knot in September 2023.
The Mystery Remains
I tried to be more specific with my searches. I switched it up, tried a few different word combinations, but still, not much. It really seems like Maisa’s parents are super low-key. They are not in the spotlight, that’s for sure.
I did come across a couple of articles that mentioned Maisa co-founded Sousa Swim with her sister right after college. So, I guess her sister is also an entrepreneur. Maybe it really does run in the family! That got me even more curious about the parents’ background. What kind of environment did they create to raise these two go-getters?
Ultimately, I didn’t really get the answers I was looking for about her parents. It’s a bit of a bummer, but honestly, it’s also kind of cool that they’ve managed to stay so private in this day and age. Everyone’s got their lives plastered all over the internet, but not them. It’s actually pretty refreshing.
So, yeah, that’s my little deep dive into the mystery of Maisa Hallum’s parents. Not the most fruitful search, but it was still interesting to see how little info is out there. It just goes to show, you can’t always find what you’re looking for online, and sometimes, that’s okay. It just makes you appreciate those who choose privacy even more.
Her husband, Marcus Smart, I found out he’s got three older brothers, and he played basketball at the same high school as one of his future Oklahoma State teammates. That’s some random trivia for ya.
Anyway, that’s the story of my little internet adventure. I just thought someone might appreciate hearing about my investigation into Maisa’s family. Not too much information, but I did my best.
