Trevor was born in Johannesburg to two loving parents, Patricia Nombuyiselo Noah and Robert Noah. Patricia has lived an extraordinary life, boasting many personal accomplishments and triumphs over her abusive ex-husband, whom she is now divorced from, and immigration.

However, Patricia was determined to have a child with him, despite his hesitation and in the end, they had a baby together. But, Robert is not listed as Trevor’s father.

Are Trevor Noah’s parents divorced?

Trevor’s parents had him out of wedlock, as marriage between a mixed-race couple was illegal at the time, and  Trevor’s mother re-married later in her life. However, Trevor’s abusive stepfather, Abel Shingange, Patricia’s new husband, shot her in the head. She miraculously survived as the bullet went through the back of her head through her nose, and although found guilty, he only received probation. Shingange then threatened Trevor’s life, which prompted the sudden move from  Johannesburg to Los Angeles.
