Discover all about Lane Kiffin’s 3 kids – his daughters Landry and Presley and son Knox. Learn more about the Ole Miss head coach’s family life. Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin cares about winning on the football field, but that is not his most important priority off the field.
Lane and his former wife, Layla Kiffin, had 3 children, namely, Landry and Presley in 2004 and 2006, respectively, and Monte Knox in 2009. Lane and Layla ended up divorcing in 2016 -- Lane relocated to Alabama to become the offensive coordinator at the University of Alabama, and Layla and the children remained in Los Angeles.
In 2020, Kiffin had transferred to Oxford, Miss., to replace the head coach of the football team at Ole Miss, Landry transferred to Oxford to finish her high school senior year, and Layla and Knox followed in 2025, according to ESPN. Lane has since written about his ex-wife, even showing a photograph of her at the side of a game at Ole Miss, and seemingly on her anniversary.
In the September 2025 episode of E60: The Many Lives of Lane Kiffin Knox stated: He is more attached to us now that he is at Ole Miss. He has changed, really changed, been a different man altogether.
Lane has not been a stranger to headlines, but Landry was the last Lane family member to earn some headlines when she reported on her relationship with Whit Weeks - a linebacker with the Louisiana State University (LSU) Tigers, which is Lane’s rival team - in September 2025.
This is all to know about Lane Kiffin and his children Landry, Presley and Monte Knox.
Landry Kiffin, 20
On Dec. 13, 2004, Lane and Layla had a daughter, Landry.
Following three years of high school in L. A. where her father at one time coached at the University of Southern California (USC), Landry transferred to her senior year in Oxford, Miss. To Lane, the move represented his second chance of being a physical parent.
I had not been staying with him since he had gone to Alabama [in 2014]. We were certainly closer than we had ever been before," Landry told E60: The Many Lives of Lane Kiffin.
After two successful seasons at Ole Miss, Lane considered accepting another head coaching position but Landry convinced him to remain.
In the documentary, she clarified the reasons why she and her friends had created this slideshow collage to a song that they knew he would feel sad and simply re-think before deciding to do it. We arrived in the office and then put it on a movie projector screen, and we were like, We have given you something to watch. Come in here.' Then he sat down, and we played it, and he was crying. Then he said to us he was going to stay, so it worked.
Lane replied, Sometimes you need your kids to show you things and to remind you about some things also. That was very impactful. I do not mean I was going [to leave]-- I was making up my mind--but that was the conclusion of the decision.
According to her LinkedIn, Landry is a business administrative major at Ole Miss, where she is a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma.
But she is dating a student of a competing school - Weeks, an LSU linebacker. In September 2025, they revealed their relationship on Instagram.
Presley Kiffin, 18
On Oct. 19, 2006, Lane and Layla had a second child, daughter Presley.
In March 2024, Presley announced that she would be playing volleyball at USC, her father's former football coaching school.I am very happy to inform you that I will be continuing my athletic and academic career at the University of Southern California, she wrote on Instagram. I would like to give a big thanks to all my coaches, family and friends who have been such a huge support and help to me in the last couple of years. So excited be a Trojan!"
