Mercedes Moné recently launched a weekly newsletter in which she shares her stories and other personal information.

Mercedes Moné has revealed in the past that her brother suffers from autism. Her family shifted a lot during their childhood to find appropriate schools and hospitals for Joshua. When his health recently took a hit, Khan asked the former WWE Women’s Champion to join him on his private jet to Jacksonville. He made it a point to stop in Orlando on the way to visit her brother.
