Who is Kat Von D's husband? She and Leafar Seyer have been married since 2018.

Kat didn't bring her bundle of joy into the world alone, as she and Leafar have been together since 2018. Leafar is regarded as the founder of the "Cholo goth" genre of music, per Wikipedia, which depicts the dangerous reality of gang life as a member of the nation's most violent Latin gangs.

In a 2015 interview with Vice, Leafar, who is the lead member of the group Prayers, explained of his music that it "is a testament to the life I'm living [and] to the people that have fought for me and to all those that have opposed me."

Gang life has affected Leafar's upbringing from a young age. When he was just a teenager, the star joined the Sherman 27th Street Grant Hill Park gang in San Diego.

Leafar was affiliated with gang life for some time after that, but in 2011, he decided to share his experiences with the world and wrote Living Dangerously about his time being on the other side of the law. Aside from writing and music, Leafar has also worked as an artist in multiple different capacities over the years.

He met Kat Von D back in 2016 after he requested that she appear in one of Prayers' music videos.

Their relationship quickly began developing after that. Just a year later, Leafar wrote the song "Black Leather" for Kat, which she featured on as well. The couple was officially married on Feb. 21, 2018, in Beverly Hills, followed by a reception just for family and friends, which was held on June 2, 2018.

They welcomed Leafar Jr. into the world on Nov. 29, 2018.
