The Latest 2025 Life Updates: Babies, Broadway, and Blockbusters

The former cast of *Jessie* has had an exceptionally busy and transformative 2025, with several major life and career announcements dominating entertainment news. The stars have successfully transitioned from Disney Channel to mature, high-profile projects.

Debby Ryan: Motherhood and New Film Projects

Debby Ryan, who played the titular character Jessie Prescott, had an incredibly personal and exciting end to 2025. In early December 2025, she and her husband, Twenty One Pilots drummer Josh Dun, announced they were expecting their first child. Just weeks later, in mid-December 2025, the couple welcomed their first baby via a home birth, which Ryan described as an "incredible" experience.

While her focus has been on her new role as a mother, Ryan continues to be an active force in film. She has recently been involved in independent projects like the Jeff Baena film *Spin Me Round* and has continued to explore edgier roles following her work on the Netflix series *Insatiable* and the horror film *Night Teeth*.

Peyton List and Karan Brar: The Netflix and Broadway Stars

The Ross siblings have seen their careers soar in different directions, with both Peyton List (Emma Ross) and Karan Brar (Ravi Ross) securing major, non-Disney roles in 2025.

  • Peyton List's Action-Packed Year: List is currently one of the most visible former Disney stars due to her role as Tory Nichols in the smash-hit Netflix series *Cobra Kai*. The highly anticipated final season (Season 6, Part 3) is scheduled to stream in early 2025, marking the end of a significant chapter in her career. Beyond the dojo, List is the lead in the Paramount+ supernatural thriller series *School Spirits*, which has been a critical success. The series is set to return for its third season in early 2026.
  • Karan Brar's Stage Debut: Karan Brar is making a significant move to the New York stage. In late 2025, he is set to star in the New York premiere of the play *Data* in November 2025. Brar will be reprising his lead role as Maneesh from the play's 2024 world premiere, showcasing his versatility beyond television.

Skai Jackson: The New Chapter of Motherhood

Skai Jackson (Zuri Ross) had one of the biggest personal updates of the year. In January 2025, the actress, who is also known for her memoir and appearance on *Dancing With The Stars*, announced she had welcomed her first child, a baby boy named Kasai. Jackson has opened up about embracing this new chapter of motherhood while also continuing to step into more mature acting roles, such as her work on the series *BMF*.

The Enduring Legacy of Cameron Boyce and Cast Reunions

The loss of Cameron Boyce (Luke Ross) in 2019 remains a poignant part of the *Jessie* cast's history. His legacy, however, continues to thrive through the work of The Cameron Boyce Foundation (TCBF).

The foundation, established by his parents, Libby and Victor Boyce, is dedicated to raising awareness and funds to cure epilepsy and end Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP). In 2025, TCBF remains highly active, hosting philanthropic events and campaigns to empower young adults living with epilepsy through education, support, and community.

The Cast's Strong Bond and Reunions

Despite their busy schedules and the tragic loss of their co-star, the *Jessie* cast—including Debby Ryan, Peyton List, Karan Brar, Skai Jackson, and Kevin Chamberlin—have maintained a strong, supportive bond, often reuniting virtually and in person.

Most recently, Karan Brar attended Debby Ryan’s baby shower in late 2025, sharing a sweet photo of the two former co-stars smiling together. These interactions, whether a virtual reunion to honor Cameron Boyce or a personal celebration, prove that the Ross family and their nanny still share a connection that goes far beyond the set of the Disney Channel show.

The success of the *Jessie* spin-off, *Bunk'd*, which ran for seven seasons and surpassed the run of the original series, is further proof of the show's lasting cultural impact. With major life changes and high-profile projects dominating their 2025, the *Jessie* TV cast has officially cemented their transition from child stars to successful, mature Hollywood entities.
