Mindy Kaling children: Meet Katherine Kaling, Spencer Kaling

The Late Night star is the mother of two children: Spencer, who was born in the thick of the epidemic in 2020, and Katherine Swati, a daughter she welcomed in 2017.

After her late mother Swati, who passed away from pancreatic cancer in 2012, and the actress Katherine Hepburn, Mindy named her oldest daughter Katherine Swati, also known as “Kit.”

In a collection of six personal essays titled Nothing Like I Imagined (Except for Sometimes), the actress acknowledged that being a single mother was harder than not having her mother nearby to offer motherly guidance.

Mindy has now openly admitted that her daughter’s personality is nothing like her own.

Young Katherine is outgoing, athletic, and the complete opposite of shy.
