Handsome Hollywood star and sex symbol, Morris Chestnut, has been making ladies swoon since his appearance in Boyz N The Hood back in 1991. Fast forward nearly 30 years and the handsome actor is married and has been for over twenty years and has two grown children now. But Morris doesn’t have your typical “dad-body” with love handles and a beer belly. But, at one time, he actually did.
