Bright Beginnings: The Life of Avery Elizabeth Leeb

Basic Information

Family and Personal Relationships

Avery Elizabeth Leeb was born into a family linked to acting and finance. Her mother is Kaitlyn Leeb (née Wong), a Canadian actress known for Spinning Out, Slasher, and Shadowhunters. Kaitlyn was born on June 18, 1988, in North York, Toronto, and she earned a B.A. in Psychology from York University. Before she became an actress, Kaitlyn modeled for Virgin Mobile and Dentyne Ice at TIFF 2010, and she won the “Miss CHIN Bikini” pageant in Toronto in 2009.

Her father, Ted Leeb, works as Vice‑President of Equity Products at BMO Capital Markets in Toronto. He started his career as an institutional equity trader at Stonecap Securities before moving to BMO. Kaitlyn and Ted married on August 17, 2013. They split their time between Toronto and Los Angeles for work. Their Christian faith is very important, and Avery had her first Holy Communion on May 5, 2024.

Avery has a younger sister, Presley Leeb, who was born on January 8, 2020. Presley is now 5 years old and often appears with Avery in family photos and on social media. The family keeps homes in both Toronto and Los Angeles so they can stay connected to Canada and to work in Hollywood.

Milestones and Early Exposure

Even at 8 years old, Avery has hit some key milestones that show her family’s values and public life. On August 9, 2016, Kaitlyn shared Avery’s birth news on Instagram, writing “Littlest caramel. My beautiful Avery Elizabeth!” That post got over 3,400 likes and 140 comments. Avery’s first Holy Communion happened on May 5, 2024, which Kaitlyn also shared to mark this special day.

Avery first stepped into the entertainment world when she was 3, joining her mother at the Spinning Out premiere in March 2020. Since then, she’s appeared at charity galas, red‑carpet events, and industry parties with Kaitlyn. These outings have introduced her to fans and photographers, but the focus has stayed on family moments, not celebrity fame.

Public Image and Media Presence

Avery does not have her own social media because she is still young. Her updates come through Kaitlyn’s official Instagram account (@kaitdubz). That account shows holidays, school achievements, and family trips. Posts about Avery often get more than 5% engagement, and Kaitlyn has over 45,000 followers.

Key engagement numbers:

Most news outlets talk about Kaitlyn’s work or lifestyle, not Avery herself. Family magazines and blogs did interviews during the pandemic where Kaitlyn and Ted talked about parenting. But none have done a profile on Avery since 2021.

Recent Developments

Since spring 2024, Avery has joined family charity events. On June 12, 2025, she helped her mother at a Toronto children’s hospital fundraiser. They presented a $25,000 donation and led a kids’ art workshop. Her parents supervise all her appearances, focusing on giving back instead of ads.

Looking ahead, Avery will likely keep going to select events with her parents. Her sister Presley will join in too. Kaitlyn has a new drama series set to come out in late 2025 in California, so both girls may get more public attention, but their personal milestones will stay most important.
