Who Are Shemar Stewart’s Parents? Meet NFL DE’s Father Brandon Marquez & Mother Latoya Smith

Shemar Stewart‘s remarkable skills have generated a lot of buzz! Almost every team would love to have a player like him on their roster. But, for the time being, speculations are that the Denver Broncos appear to be the most likely place where the 21-year-old can land. But can they really do that? Well, yeah, and hints for this are already there.

The Orange Crush club selected Steward in the mock draft, and there is a chance that this mock draft picture can become a real one. After all, Shemar has been destructive during his collegiate football career. But who are the people backing him from behind the scenes?

Who is Shemar Stewart’s father?

Brandon Marquez is Shemar Stewart’s dad. He was an important influence for the young DE, but was not there for the rest of it. He also did not have a significant part in defining the DE’s football career. If we look at his descendants, Brandon Marquez is of Jamaican origin. He currently resides in Jamaica, however, the specific location is unknown.

Aside from that, no information on Brandon’s studies or profession is currently available. Not only that, there are currently no assumptions about his net worth too. While we know very less about Shemar Stewart’s father, let’s speak about someone who helped him become who he is today.

Who is Shemar Stewart’s Mother?

Latoya Smith is Shemar Stewart’s mother. She has been a significant presence in Shemar’s life, supporting him at all times. She was there for him even when, at the age of 12, the future CFL star went to Ives Estates Park in Miami to play football with his friends. The DE claims that was the time he fell in love with the game and afterward wanted “to be as good as them or even better.” Latoya Smith is also of Jamaican origin, but lives in Miramar, Florida, where she raised the DE.

Smith played a significant part in Shemar’s life, as she was the one who pushed him to choose Texas A&M University. The DE received a scholarship and was immediately selected for the college’s football squad. After that, it was simple for him to climb the ladder of success and accumulate total earnings of $461,000.

What is Brandon Marquez and Latoya Smith’s nationality?

One thing is certain: based on what we know about them, both are Jamaican descendants. However, what is their current nationality? Brandon Marquez currently identifies as Jamaican. He was born and raised there, therefore it makes sense. Latoya Smith, on the other hand, is both Jamaican and a proud American citizen. She identifies as an Afro-American because she lives in Florida.

Although Smith and Marquez have African heritage, the same cannot be said of Shemar Stewart. Even on his university website and other official sites, it is clearly stated that the DE is simply an American citizen.

Moving on from nationalities and parents, what did the DE do to create such a hype about him:
