Dreka Gates Bio, Age

Dreka Gates was born – Shadreka Centuri Haynes – in Baton Rouge, Los Angeles on August 31, 1986 to a middle-class African American family. Growing up, Dreka had a pretty good lead, and was reportedly one of the few of her friends who owned a car at her Los Angeles high school. Not only has she performed well academically, but she has also participated in various academic events and competitions. With such a profile at school, it didn’t take long for her to become aware of her future husband, Kevin. The duo first met in high school and started dating. Sources say they have been together since 2002 and at the time of their marriage in October 2015 they had been together for over 13 years and already had two children.

Kevin Gates was reformed behind bars and obviously wanted more out of life. While in prison, he studied psychology and received an MA in psychology through a prison education program. His tenure was shortened and he was soon released for good behavior. During this time he also saw several women with whom he had several love children. But that didn’t make Dreka change her mind about him.
