View Article  And on the subject of Kiera...
Kiera appears to have a boyfriend/special-friend, if that's what would you call it just shy of three years old.

T calls her his princess and she calls him her prince. They are frequently spotted holding hands walking together, hugging and the occasional peck on the cheek.
