Besides the blissful marital life, Lia and her husband are blessed with two adorable sons. Chris Mooney’s spouse gave birth to their first baby, Danny Mooney, in 2009. After a few years, the smitten couple welcomed their youngest son, Ryan Mooney, in 2012.

Chris Mooney’s children are already into basketball. As per The Washington Post, Danny and Ryan are huge basketball fans. In addition, the eldest, Mooney, who is also bilingual, is already a good player. Apparently, he played for Team 22-11u.

Moreover, Chase Rhoades, son of VCU head coach Mike Rhoades, and Danny were playmates. UR and VCU coaches are rivals on the court, but their sons played on the same team. Thus, we might see them as professional players in the coming days.

Talking about fatherhood with Richmond Family Magazine, Lia’s husband said his coaching job has prepared him to be a father and taught him patience. Nonetheless, Lia and Chris’ sons are growing and have inherited the love for basketball.

The Mooney Pair’s Immeasurable Impacts

Aside from providing the best platform for players, Richmond’s head coach and his wife are also known for their generous acts. During the 2007-2008 preseason workout in mid-September, Spiders student manager Robyn Jacobs‘ father died by suicide. She immediately told Lia, and they went to Mr. Mooney. Afterward, Chris bought plane tickets for himself and the manager to return to her hometown, Connecticut. He flew back to Richmond the next day and took another flight to Connecticut for the funeral.

When Robyn returned to the University of Richmond three weeks later, the Mooney couple offered her to stay with them for the rest of her senior year. Several years later, in September 2012, Jacobs married Dustin Sordelett and asked Chris Mooney to give her away at her wedding. In addition, the whole Mooney family was involved in the wedding. Lia was one of the bridesmaids, and their young son was the ringbearer.

Lia and her hubby also opened their house and hosted Jimmy Maiarana and Tess Maiarana‘s wedding in their backyard on 29 August 2020. Jimmy was the team’s manager as an undergraduate at Richmond from 2010-2014. As per Buffalo News, Maiarana is a Buffalo native and a doctor.

Nonetheless, Chris Mooney’s wife is a devoted wife, mother, and amazing woman. She must be doing well in her personal and professional life. We wish Lia Chomat Mooney a joyful life ahead.
